OUR VISION
The vision of the Archie R-V School District is to be a district where everyone experiences success.
Dear Whirlwind Patrons,
As we wrap up the month of October, I want to extend a heartfelt thanks to all parents and teachers for your commitment to collaboration during Parent/Teacher Conferences. Your dedication to open, meaningful communication plays an essential role in building positive relationships that directly impact student learning and growth. By working together, we can build a stronger foundation for student success, and I am grateful for the time, energy, and support each of you invests in this partnership.
We look forward to finishing the first semester #ArchieStrong and encourage you to reach out if you have any questions or concerns moving forward. Thank you for making a difference in the lives of students.
Sincerely,
Mr. Schulte

The character word for November is SERVICE. We are so thankful for those who serve the needs of others. Serving is an amazing character trait that can build up, help and encourage others. Our families, communities and workplaces need from each of us a strong service character. Service character means that a person demonstrates kindness and service to others in every interaction. The person validates others' efforts and accomplishments.
A service is any activity or benefit that one party can offer to another that is essentially intangible and does not result in the ownership of anything. Services do not always come from physical products. Below are some questions that families can consider and discuss at home.
What are some ways that you can serve others at home?
What are some ways you can serve at school?
What are some ways you can serve on your team?
What are some ways you can serve others in your community?
One way Archie School Elementary would like to show service is with a can drive. We CAN serve others! We will collect canned and non-perishable items to help with our local food pantry. Students will be challenged to bring in items from November 12th-15th. The items will be donated to David's Cupboard, a local food pantry.
We hope this will also help during the holiday season!
#ArchieStrong-

Choir members Alejandro Simpson and Isabelle Walsh participated in district choir ensembles this past October! Both singers spent an entire day rehearsing music with their respective groups for performances later that evening, highlighting musicianship and hard-work. Bravo! 🎼❤️🎶

The Archie R-V School District previously used the Tyler Student Information System (SIS); however, due to company changes, we were required to change systems. Many of you have completed on-line registration on our new system, Infinite Campus. A BIG shout out to Mrs. Becky Deardorff and Mrs. Michelle Mell for their leadership throughout this transition.
We ask that you have patience and understanding throughout this school year as ALL staff and families will be navigating this new system. Our administrative assistants will do their best to answer your questions or get back to you with an answer as soon as possible. Again, thank you for your patience.

Dual Credit
Archie High School students have the opportunity to take dual credit classes through the University of Central Missouri (UCM). Students can begin classes when they are a sophomore, have a minimum GPA of 3.0, and counselor/principal recommendation. Students choosing to earn high school credit and three hours of college credit must be independent, motivated students. All dual credit classes are online with an instructor from UCM, not Archie. Students must be able to problem solve, manage their time, and use resources through UCM to complete college level work. There are tuition waivers and scholarships available for students who qualify. Enrollment for the spring 2025 semester will begin soon.
