A huge shoutout to our CES custodians! Thank you for all that you do to keep our campus beautiful and for making students and the school feel welcome. Happy School Custodians Day!
Here's a well-deserved shoutout to our hardworking Chillicothe R-II School custodians! We appreciate all you do to make sure our students and staff have clean and safe classrooms and school buildings to work in!
Our 3rd graders participated in the Old Time Harvest Festival on Friday, where they got an exciting glimpse into Missouri’s rich history. As a major focus of 3rd grade is Missouri history, the festival was a perfect fit, featuring demonstrations of old-fashioned machinery, apple cider pressing, butter churning, and much more!
Here are the various ways parents can access the Free & Reduced Meal Applications for the 2024-25 school year. We encourage everyone to complete these forms to take advantage of this valuable resource!

Kindness is everywhere at CES! The three recipients of this week's awards were nominated by a teacher or staff member for showing exceptional kindness. They received a sunshine bag and the opportunity to sit in the yellow sunshine chair over the next week to promote kindness throughout CES!
Landry Hayes (Miss Howard’s 1st Grade) Landrey is always being kind and following the rules! She helps other friends put their things aways and helps teachers and subs whenever they need it!
Mielah Flemming (Mrs. Bagley’s 2nd Grade) Mielah shares with others and is supportive to her classmates by telling them “Good job” when they are successful!
Poppy Leppin (Mrs. Taylor’s 5th Grade) Poppy always has a smile on her face and is willing to do her best work! She helps students in the classroom find material and get ready for each task. Keep smiling Poppy!
