Christmas Around the World in STEM! 🌍🎄
Ms. Reeder’s STEM class has been exploring how different cultures celebrate the holiday season. Students worked in groups to research traditions, foods, and fun facts from eight countries around the globe. 🌍
After gathering their information, each group colored and decorated their section of the map — coming together to create a vibrant “Christmas Around the World” bulletin board! 🎄
Such a fun way to learn geography, culture, and teamwork all in one activity! 🧡🖤 #PantherPrideInTheClassroom @ Palmyra Middle School

Once their “patient” became unresponsive, students called 911 and moved into unconscious Heimlich protocol.
This hands-on training is not only an important safety lesson, but also a Missouri graduation requirement for all high school students. We are proud of our Panthers for taking these skills seriously and learning how to respond in an emergency. 🧡🖤 #PantherPrideInTheClassroom @ Palmyra High School

Mrs. Harper’s 7th grade science classes have been learning all about cells. Today, they brought learning to life and presented their creative hands-on projects to their classmates.
Students built models representing either a plant or animal cell. Their creativity shined, making game boards, sports fields, vehicles, wrestling mats and more!
We are proud of their hard work and imagination. 🧡🖤 #PantherPrideInTheClassroom @ Palmyra Middle School
Our 3rd graders brought history to life during their Famous Missourians Wax Museum Open House — and what an incredible showcase it was!
Students researched influential Missourians, created props and costumes, and stepped into character to share what they have learned with families, staff, and classmates. From athletes and artists to explorers, inventors, and leaders, our gym was filled with Missouri history brought to life in the most creative way.
We are so proud of their hard work, confidence, and excitement for learning. 💫
Thank you to our families for coming out to support our students and celebrate their amazing projects!
Great job, 3rd graders! 👏📚✨

On November 22nd, they hosted their annual Panther Pride Dance Clinic for elementary and middle school students — and what a turnout! Sixty dancers from preschool through 5th grade joined in the fun.
In keeping with this year’s Mamma Mia theme, students were divided into groups and learned choreography to songs from the movie’s soundtrack. They even wrapped up the evening with a classic favorite…the Chicken Dance!
The evening also featured two routines performed by the Panther Pride Dance Team, a performance from the Culver-Stockton dancers, and a brand-new segment, Grown-Ups and Me, where dancers performed “Slipping Through My Fingers” with a special adult in their lives — a truly heartwarming moment.
After a full morning of learning and rehearsing, the dancers returned that night to perform for an audience full of cheering family and friends. They also enjoyed snapping photos with everyone’s favorite mascot, Pete the Panther. 🐾
The Panther Pride Dance Team also marched in the Palmyra Lighted Parade! 🧡🖤✨
To top off an already exciting couple of weeks, four Panther Pride dancers — Dannah, Addie, Lydia, and Paige — are traveling to Hawaii to march in the Pearl Harbor Memorial Parade. We are so proud of them for representing Palmyra on such a meaningful national stage! 🇺🇸✨
Today (and every day!) we honor our amazing special-education teachers, paras, therapists, support staff, and administrators who go above and beyond for our students. 💪📚
Your passion, creativity, and dedication help every child feel seen, valued, and capable of achieving greatness. ✨
Thank you for making our school community stronger and more inclusive. We appreciate you — SO much! 🧡🖤👏

🍂🦃 Happy Thanksgiving, Panther families! 🥧
Tuesday was a day filled with thankfulness, friendship, and teamwork across our schools. Many of our classes had special activities and celebrations and it was heartwarming to be able to witness two of those gatherings!
Mrs. Wilson’s class celebrated with a classroom Friendsgiving, bringing in their favorite treats to share with classmates and teachers. Special guests — Mrs. Augspurg, Mrs. Duppong, Mrs. Hoerr, and Mrs. Moorman — even joined in on the fun and helped make the gathering extra special.
Meanwhile, Ms. Morris’ classes took on a breakout box escape room challenge! Students worked together to solve puzzles, think outside the box, and unlock a series of physical locks to reach the final prize.
We are grateful for moments like these that bring our students together and showcase their giving hearts, teamwork, and Panther pride. 🧡🖤 #PantherPrideInTheClassroom @ PES and PMS
We want to see our students’ creativity over Thanksgiving break! We are looking for a fun, school-appropriate winter weather meme, graphic, or drawing created by our students to use in future snow day announcements. ⛄📢

Families, submissions can be turned in to your student’s school office or emailed to Amber@ summersa@palmyrar1.us by Friday, December 5. We can’t wait to see all the creativity and look forward to sharing on future snow days!

A special shoutout to Mrs. Redd, who directed the play and worked offstage to help performers with their costumes and cues. 👏🦃
Way to go, 2nd grade! What a great way to kick off the Thanksgiving holiday!
