DECA SAYS THANKS, but continues raising funds to fight hunger


From the DECA Club: Thank you so much to Linda Scott Moore, the teachers union, and Linda Newsome and the Taylor Foundation for Educational Excellence for the donation of $500 for our Truman and Kennedy food pantries.

We are trying hard to raise $2,800 to host a “kids against hunger” event to get 20,000 meals donated for our food pantries to feed our students and their families when school is not in session.

The DECA and marketing students presented today to a group of amazing donors and we couldn't be more appreciative.

We are now $1,800 away from our goal of keeping our students fed with nutritious meals so they can be successful in school.


This event will take place at Truman High School September 23. We will be looking for volunteers contact carly.barnard@taylorschools.net if interested in donating time and/or money.

MCDOWELL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL: Hat's off to the Class of 2029!



Who can resist a cute kindergarten student performing their end of the year concert? Recently at McDowell Elementary School Ms. Bochenek's and Mrs. Doll's classes sang several upbeat songs and “The Farmer in the Dell” complete with visuals. They remembered their parts and received their Kindergarten certificates and had a small reception with their parents. These little ones will make a great "Class of 2029!"
