The Puxico FFA chapter celebrated a successful year at their annual banquet, recognizing member achievements including two American Degrees, four State Degrees, five Proficiency Awards, and three CDE teams competing at the state level, while also inspiring attendees with insights from Puxico’s first FFA president, Mr. Ray Placher, on the program’s history and life lessons that can be learned through FFA. His words were backed with a lifetime of wisdom and hard work. Thank you, Mr. Placher, taking time to speak to all of us who attended.
The chapter honored Mr. Wade Sanders as an honorary member for his dedication in transporting members to national and state conventions, demonstrating their appreciation for his support. Overall, the event highlighted the chapter’s accomplishments and the strong community backing that fosters growth and success among its members. Thank you to everyone for your support of the program and its members.

🏆 BREAKING NEWS: Teachers DOMINATE in the first annual 5th Grade Students vs. Teachers Kickball Showdown, with a landslide victory of 21-3! 💥🥎
Despite the students bringing their A-game, the teachers proved that recess duty is a sport. 💪
Highlights included:
• Mrs. Gillock sliding into third like it was the World Series 🧼
• Mrs. Copling has a mean kick!
• And the 5th grade team got their principal out not once but twice 🤣
We may have crushed them on the scoreboard, but they crushed our hearts as we get ready to say goodbye. 😢💙
We’re going to miss our amazing 5th graders as they level up to Junior High — but don’t worry, we’ll still be here… icing our knees and talking about “the good ol’ days of 2025.”

Students enjoyed a day at Redman Creek Recreation Area for our end of the year trip. Students enjoyed playing volleyball, whiffle ball, basketball, card games, and fishing. Fishing was very poplar among students and there were even some first time fisheman They were super proud of their catch today. Students were hot and tired by the end of the day, but had a great time.
