Summer School 2026
Outdoor Adventures & Wild Wonders
Students in our Outdoor Adventures & Wild Wonders summer school class recently participated in a Tick Safety presentation provided by the Webster County Health Unit. Through this community partnership, students learned how to stay safe while exploring the outdoors and enjoying all the adventures summer has to offer. Thank you to the Webster County Health Unit for helping our students learn practical skills that can keep them healthy and safe.
Summer Fun at Massey Park
Recently, our summer school students spent time exploring Del Massey Park, a special place with a meaningful story. When community member Del Massey passed away, he left his homesite to "the children of Marshfield." Today, the park that bears his name stands as a lasting reminder of his generosity, his belief in young people, and his commitment to our community. He was respected during his lifetime, and his legacy continues to impact generations of Blue Jays.
Triathletes Hit the Field
What an amazing experience for our Summer School Triathletes! Recently, these students had the opportunity to take the field at the Springfield Cardinals stadium, creating memories they won't soon forget.
Route 66 and Community
These students are learning that small acts of service can make a big impact.
Recently, Tresa Davis's summer school class helped clean up trash at the Marshfield Fairgrounds and North Park, taking pride in helping keep our community beautiful. The class also visited the new Route 66 gas station, which was installed as part of this year's celebration of the historic highway's anniversary.
We love seeing our Blue Jays learning, exploring, and making a difference this summer!
StoryQuest
StoryQuest Summer School welcomed a special guest reader! Officer Joshua Burris stopped by to share one of his favorite books, Officer Buckle and Gloria, with our students. A huge thank you to Officer Burris for taking time out of his busy day to help inspire a love of reading!
First Impact
These high school summer school students participated in the First Impact program, a FREE evidence-based traffic safety course designed to help teen drivers and their parents better understand Missouri’s Graduated Driver License (GDL) law.
Led by trained law enforcement officers and facilitators, students learned about safe driving habits, the risks facing new drivers, and the important role parents play in helping teens develop safe driving skills.
From reading and math to real-world life lessons like driver safety, our students are gaining valuable knowledge and skills every day this summer!
