Thank you Miss B and the Friends of Elsberry Literacy (FOEL) for supporting our students. This charitable group ensures that every Elsberry student who wants books has the chance to pick a free book twice a year. The picture shows some of Mrs. Rockwell's sixth graders showing off their new books.
If you would like to know more about the Friends of Elsberry Literacy, or if you are interested in making a donation to this organization, please email Karin Busiere at kbusiere@elsberry.k12.mo.us

Mrs Black's students completed the "Trash to Toy” project as part of their childcare unit. Students had to create a toy using recycled or otherwise trash items. After creating the toys, students had to present to the class and explain the appropriate age range, any safety concerns, and what skills and type of development could be gained with their toy. They spoke about things like fine motor skills, language development, creativity, imagination, diversity, basic leaning like colors, counting, and so much more! It was fun to see these kiddos think outside the box, work very well in their groups, and make amazing creations!








Summer School Enrollment is now open.
A form will need to be completed for each student in attendance.

The Mock Interview is a rite of passage for eighth grade students at EMS. Students create a resume and practice answering questions during ELA class before actually participating in an interview at school. This would not be possible without the support of our community and the volunteers who conduct the interviews. Please thank these people if you see them out and about in the community.
