At the beginning of the quarter, we set a goal of reading for 15 uninterrupted minutes. We started with just 30 seconds, worked our way up to 3–5 minutes, and even had several close calls where we stopped around 12–14 minutes. Each time, this group was determined to improve!
Today, they knocked it out of the park by surpassing their goal and reading for 22 uninterrupted minutes! 🎉 The students love the challenge and have shared that they feel more focused and engaged in their books. Watching their reading confidence grow has been such a rewarding part of our day! 💙📖

We are so blessed to have Mrs. Jenny! 💛 She pours her heart into making sure our littles have the best opportunities to learn, grow, and have fun!
✨ Did you know? Our Parents as Teachers (PAT) program is available for families with children under age 5. PAT supports early learning, school readiness, and strong family connections through fun, engaging activities and resources.
If you know a kiddo under 5 who isn’t part of our Parents as Teachers program yet, we would LOVE to connect with them!
📞 Contact Mrs. Mitchell or call the school for more information.
Let’s give our youngest learners the best start possible—because learning starts early and should always be fun! 🌟📚
Puxico Parents as Teachers had a busy week! We had Santa at the Library on Thursday night with over 20 families attending. Last Night we partnered with Melody Troutand the Advance Parents as Teachers at their home ballgame with Puxico. Share any pics you took at the events that you want!






Every bead represents a book read, and today Mrs. Simmers’ second graders created their very own reading necklaces to celebrate their hard work and growth as readers. Watching their pride as they added each bead was so special!
This small incentive has already sparked big motivation, and I can’t wait to see how many books they read during the second half of the school year. So proud of these readers! 📚💙

They created sentences link by link and even color-coded each piece to identify complete verbs. Seeing their excitement as they connected each part of a sentence was the best part of the day!
Hands-on learning + creativity = ELA success! 💙📘
So proud of these 5th graders!













What a wonderful way to kick off the holiday season!







Students practiced using a scale and loved the hands-on learning.

Congratulations to all of our Puxico Jr. High students who made the Honor Roll for the 1st Quarter! 📚✨
Your hard work, perseverance, and commitment to learning are truly paying off. We are so proud of your accomplishments and the positive example you set for others each day. 🌟
Keep striving for excellence, Indians!
Quarter 2 is your time to shine even brighter!










The Jr. High Lady Indians wrapped up their season Friday night as they took on the East Carter Redbirds on the road. It was a special evening as our 8th graders — Braylen Fox, Reese Mattingly, and Brylee Campbell — suited up for their final Jr. High games. Each of these young ladies led in her own way — some on the scoreboard, and some through pure hustle, grit, and great sportmanship. Thank you, Braylen, Reese, and Brylee, for representing Puxico Jr. High with pride and heart. We are proud of each of you, and can’t wait to cheer you on next year as Puxico High School Lady Indians!
To our other Lady Indians, we are proud of your hard work this season and thank you for giving it your all each game, making it fun for all of your fans. Thank you!
The night was full of energy, with the boys and girls bringing the energy and the Puxico Cheerleaders keeping the crowd fired up. These teams are fun to watch, if you haven’t attended a game yet, there are just a few more chances to catch the boys and see the cheerleaders in action. These boys get better and better each game, and work hard on the floor.
📅 Looking Ahead:
• Monday: Boys on the road at Richland vs. the Rebels
• Thursday: Boys host the Advance Hornets at home
Come out and support our teams — let’s pack the stands and show that Indian Pride! 🧡🖤




















On a side note, we want to thank the volleyball program for being flexible and having a scrimmage due to a late cancelation. Thank you to everyone who made this a special night!








What a beautiful evening at the Chris Sifford Sports Complex as our Puxico Indians pulled off a hard-fought 4-3 victory over the Doniphan Dons!
The team played with heart and hustle, and it showed on the field.
Great job, boys!
