Update from Mr. Best, KHS Principal:
An alarm went off due to sprinkler sensors. It was not pulled by staff or students. There were no signs of smoke or heat that indicated imminent fire anywhere in the building. Kirksville Fire Department did a walk through out of an abundance of caution and to see if they can pinpoint the problem (dust in heaters, etc).
Thank you Mr. Best and Kirksville Fire Department for keeping everyone safe and informed!

Mrs. Cross is in her first year in our district and we are happy to have her here in the R-3. She says that as a student she did have to go to the principal's office once. We are here for the details on that! Her official statement went like this, "Well, one time I was sent to the office, but it was not really my fault. It was a playground game gone wrong. The end." We think we have all had similar experiences.

October is National Principals Month and we are taking time to appreciate all of our building principals and assistant principals here in Kirksville R-III. Today we spotlight Mr. Jesse Wolf at KATC!
Mr. Wolf told us, when asked about going to the principal's office as a student, "Let's just say it was a huge surprise to some of my former teachers, whom I have since apologized, that I decided to get into education. I was not the model student." We like that honesty.
It sounds like Mr. Wolf has found his passion and his favorite role within our district. When asked of his favorite thing about Kirksville R-III, he gave us this answer:
"In my specific position, I am blessed with the opportunity to connect state-of-the-art equipment and resources to some of our blue-collar professions. Kirksville R-III and the school board have never wavered from purchasing the tools necessary to prepare our students for whatever their future may entail. I have seen students from almost all of our programs go to college or directly into their specific trades, and not only become successful, but very quickly be placed in leadership roles. These are accomplishments that they most likely didn't think were possible, at one time. As with most educators, my reward lies in the success of our students and some of the amazing opportunities put before them by our instructors and the Kirksville R-III School District."
Mr. Wolf, thank you for everything you do as an educational leader for our students, staff, and community! #kvproud #kvtigers #welovekirksville
