Kindergarten Registration
Children must be fit years old on or before September 1 of the current school year in order to register for kindergarten. In addition to the registration documents (listed above) the Department of Health mandates that each new student complete a physical and dental exam before attending school. We will accept exams completed up to six months prior to registration.
Dassa McKinney Elementary School continued the tradition of raising money and awareness for the American Heart Association’s Kids Heart Challenge. During the time of fundraising, students learn about the heart, how to have a healthy heart, and hands-only CPR.
Students in grades three through six who signed up online and donated at least $10, had the opportunity to play in the annual basketball tournament. This year it looked a little different. The tournament was held on a Saturday in March at Moniteau High School. Students came and played their hearts out for a chance to play against teachers at the end-of-the-year student celebration.
Students who raised $150 or more will participate in a glow party to be held at Dassa in May. Other students who raised money earned various prizes from the American Heart Association.
Ms. Scialabba returned this year to lead the charge and Mrs. McBryar assisted her. Students, staff, and the community are passionate about this project. Through their dedication, Dassa McKinney Elementary School was able to fundraise $9,661.79. This total surpassed the school goal of $9,500. Students raised enough money to earn gift cards to buy gym and playground equipment!
This tradition has been going on for decades and we hope to continue raising money and awareness about those with special hearts! Thank you to everyone who participated and supported this project.
The Moniteau School District will be hosting four financial education nights from February through May 2024. We will provide a light dinner at the end of each of these events as well as door prizes. In order to prepare enough materials and food for each of these presentations, we will be sending out a registration link via a Skylert email message and a flyer with a QR code for easy access to this registration form. Below you will find the title, content summary, location, and time of each event. We hope to see you there! This series is open to families of our students as well as community members.
