Mrs. Haeberlin has been busy sharpening her skills—literally—by learning how to process hogs. 🐖 She attended the MVATA Summer Institute to learn how to process hogs in the classroom. The class was taught by Ms. Leykamp, who is an agriculture teacher at Montgomery County.
This hands-on training ensures students will get real-world experience in the classroom. Mrs. Haeberlin walked through the steps on how to process a hog, both with meat lab equipment and without. This included the break down of a carcass into primal and then retail cuts, making ground meat, sausage, and brats.
Learning never stops when you are preparing the next generation! Our teachers stay busy during the summer with unique learning opportunities like this and always preparing for the new school year!

This week, 16 talented Panthers dove into the world of theater—learning about set design, stage makeup, and basic stage directions. Their hard work paid off in a hilarious and magical performance of “Donuts, Dragons, and the Forest of Fools” 🍩🐉🌳
Bravo to our young performers and a big thank you to Mrs. Bunten, Mrs. Courtney, Mrs. Fountain, and Ms. Reynolds, and for bringing the stage to life! 👏🎟️

We, the Family, Career & Community Leaders of America face the future with warm courage and high hope.


While they didn’t advance to the Top 10 for on-stage recognition, their hard work, dedication, and professionalism shone throughout the competition. Representing our school and community on a national level is an outstanding achievement, and we could not be more proud.







They are in the top 16 teams nationwide and will perform their final "broadcast" this afternoon at the Anaheim Convention Center! The top 10 teams will be recognized at the Awards of Excellence Ceremony tomorrow night!
Congrats Mr. Frankenbach, Lynton, Laura and Allie! Sending you good luck vibes for your performance this afternoon from all your fans in Missouri! 🤩




Lynton, Laura and Allie hope practicing under palm trees with abundant sunshine will push them into the finals tomorrow! We are proud of you Panthers and we wish you the best of luck this week!
