All St. Jude raffle ticket forms and money are due Monday February, 6. The elementary students will also be able to purchase snacks and drinks for $1 Monday and Tuesday. Thank You to everyone for participating in support St. Jude.
Due to inclement weather, we have extended the St. Jude's raffle ticket sales until Monday Feb 6. Please turn in all forms and money by Monday the 6th.
Good Morning Hornets, We are currently monitoring the potential for winter weather this evening. In an abundance of caution we are cancelling tutoring tonight. In addition our Pee Wee games and volleyball practice are cancelled for tonight, 1/24/23. We will continue to watch the forecast as things move along. It would be a good idea to have a back up plan in the event of an inclement weather dismissal. Thank you.
St. Jude Dream Basket Raffle
Junction Hill is excited to announce that with the help of several generous
donors, we have created three amazing prize packages valued at over $600
each. The baskets will be raffled off on Feb. 8th! Tickets are $1 each or 6 for
$5. Each person can only win one basket. When students sell tickets, they will
need to get the buyer’s full name, phone number, and collect the amount owed
for tickets. Students will turn in their order form and money no later than
Feb. 3rd. We will place a raffle ticket in the drawing for each ticket sold.
Money and forms may be turned into Melba, your child’s teacher, or Mrs. Jens by Feb 3rd. The order form is attached. If the buyer pays by check, please have
them make it to Junction Hill School. The class in the elementary and the
middle school that sells the most will receive a reward for their efforts! The top
two elementary sellers and the top two middle school sellers will have pizza
delivered to them for lunch.

In honor of our veterans, Junction Hill School will be hosting our annual Veterans Day Ceremony on Friday, November 11, at 2:45 pm in the Gymnasium.
All visiting Veterans and their loved ones are welcome and will have the chance to hear songs, and poems thanking the Veterans for their service. Each veteran will receive a small gift and be recognized for their service and honor.
The assembly will include the Presentation of Colors from the 8 th grade Student Council members, Armed Forces Medley and a slide show presentation. The assembly will also include the tradition of setting a separate table in honor of our prisoners of war and missing comrades.
STG2 Kirk Hoffman, an accomplished United States Navy veteran, Sonar Technician 2nd Class Petty Officer, is our keynote speaker. Hoffman served two nine-month deployments across the Western Pacific.
He is currently a Middle School Math and Physical Education teacher at Junction Hill.
Junction Hill School annually celebrates Veterans Day. To RSVP to the event, please call the school number at 417-256-4265 or email: ssydow@junctionhill.k12.mo.us
Attention Parents. Monday October 31st Pre K-8 classes at Junction Hill School will have a Halloween Costume and Parade contest that will be held in the Gym from 2:30 till 3:00. The classroom parties are closed to visitors though we are happy to allow parents into the Gym to watch this Junction Hill tradition. This year we ask parents who would like to come to arrive at the Gym doors before or by 2:30 to observe the costume parade. Parents wishing to check their students out after the parade may do so, though the absence will count against the student's attendance.

Dear Junction Hill Families,
Veterans Day, a time for us to come together and honor all who have or are currently serving in our nation’s armed forces will soon be here. We are asking for all of our families to send in photographs of their family members who have served or are serving in a branch of the United States Armed Forces. Along with the photograph, we need the person(s) name, branch of military, time of service (i.e. 2007-2013), and their relation to anyone at the school (i.e. father of, aunt of). If you would like to include any other information such as highest rank achieved or special awards or commendations, feel free to do so. The photographs and included information will be in a slide show to honor veterans from our school and community.
Mrs. Ledgerwood will assemble the slideshow and would like the photos sent to her via email at tledgerwood@junctionhill.k12.mo.us. You may also bring your photograph(s) in person and leave them at the front office. They will be scanned and ready for you to retrieve by the next school day. If you trust your child to bring them in, please put them in an envelope with your contact information and have your child give them to their teacher, Mrs. Ledgerwood or Mrs. Sydow.
In order for there to be enough time to gather the photographs and assemble the slideshow, we MUST receive the photos no later than Thursday, November 3. We cannot guarantee the photographs will be included in the slide show if they are sent in after this date.
