AmeriCorps and VISTA Programs Receive Awards Sculpture Depicts Nation, Places in Competition Dakota York placed second in the Missouri SkillsUSA conference
at Linn State Technical College with his sculpture, "E Pluribus
Unum," or "One From Many." Bales Receives Principal Award Hilary Bales, principal at East Elementary, has been named the Principal of the Year for the South-Central Region. She is one of 12 principals around the state who was honored during the Missouri Association of Elementary School Principals (MESP) this spring. Bales is responsible for ensuring approximately 900 Waynesville R-VI students in kindergarten through second grades receive a top-notch education at East. "Mrs. Bales meets challenges head-on, displays enthusiasm, is inclusive and takes a no-nonsense approach to leading East Elementary," says Superintendent Judene Blackburn. "Her knowledge of the learning process and superb communication and organizational skills are also great assets." East was one of 10 schools in the state to receive the Missouri Professional Learning Communities School Award in 2013. (Partridge Elementary, another Waynesville school, also received the award.) Bales led East's transition to a top-rated PLC school. In addition, Bales is a leader in implementation of Positive Behavior Intervention and Response to Intervention programs. During the past two years, two other Waynesville principals have
been awarded the South Central Region's Principal of the Year Award:
Dr. Sonya Campbell of Wood Elementary and Mike Morriss of Freedom
Elementary. Partridge scores bigs on PLC audit Partridge Elementary teachers scored very well, reaching "deep implementation," on all Professional Learning Community areas evaluated during a recent South-Central Regional Professional Development Center (RPDC) external evaluation. Dr. Michelle Smith of the RPDC shared with Partridge teachers that when a school has been recognized as an Exemplary PLC by DESE, the next year they normally drop off. "In the case of Partridge, you have continued to raise the standards and develop innovative approaches to documenting student progress, PLC collaboration, developing programs for student success and focusing on teamwork," Smith says. Dr. George Lauritson, principal at Partridge, thanked the teachers for continuing to reach higher levels of knowledge to better serve their students. "I am very proud of each staff member for their achievement
and dedication," Lauritson says. "Working as teams, they
have reached new levels of collaboration and commitment to each
other and their students." WHS Club TIGER Dance Club hosts showcase Dance club performers included Cassandra Anderson, Trina Borreta,
Cinnamon Bragg, Bianca Brown, Roxanna Jones, Makenzie King, Sarah
Pfeffer, Savannah Rossetti and Arianna Williams. The WHS Club TIGER

and instructed by Amie Ayers.

One day a mysterious stone from above fell into the villagers'

rock, with it's rough clutches it holds a sword that is said
to name the next King of the Britians. The plot thickens as
the sword will not budge from its hardened captivity as all
the strongest men from all walks of life attempt to free it
and claim the thrown as a King of Mighty Name. Arthur is a lowly
servant boy to the chief's son. The teenage boy surprises everyone
when he accidentally removes the sword. Is he kingly material
or just a boy with mistaken identity. Arthur's Stone, Merlin's
