Check out the new concrete path from OMS to OHS! This was one of the many projects completed this summer around GCR2. Previously, it was a reclaimed asphalt pavement trail (RAP) that was constantly getting washed out. Thanks to Gary Pohlmann and Jimmy Mcclure for their hard work on this project that will last for years to come!

Welcome buses 102 and 103 to the fleet! We have one of the largest geographical school districts in the state with a lot of ground to cover, so having safe and reliable transportation for our students is a district priority. A goal of GCR2 is to be able to cycle 2 new buses into the fleet each school year to keep up with this need. These new buses even feature back-up cameras!

Our Ag Department at Owensville High School is in good hands! Led by Mollie Henneke, Cody Hendrix, and Matt Ketcherside, they have already been hard at work this summer. They have been very busy checking in with students on their SAE (Supervised Agricultural Experience) projects, working with the Gasconade County Fair, and a variety of improvements they have made to facilities here on campus. In these photos, you can see them working on the shrubbery and landscaping outside of the Ag building, the shop (which they have put a ton of time into making a better space for the students), and the back lot behind the Ag building.

Tonight, our Long Range Facilities Committee met to get a first look at the upgrades to the OHS gym and to discuss current projects and potential future projects in the district. Over the summer, the big gym at OHS got new bleachers and a fresh coat of paint. We are so excited for our students and community to see the new look of the gym!

We anticipate that some questions will arise regarding the income verification form that families are asked to complete during online registration. From reduced fees to grant qualifications, this has a massive impact on our district. Note that any free/reduced status is confidential and only accessible to district admin staff. Thank you for your support of district programs.
