Birthday Shout-Out to some of our AWESOME staff members! We hope your October birthdays have been great!! 🥳
Nike Elementary has been celebrating Missouri Day for over 20 years. This is a special day recognized in October to learn about our state's history. Students and staff did just that by participating in hands-on activities that pertain specifically to the Show-Me State! On Friday, October 25th, Nike Scouts got to rotate through several different displays and presentations that were set up throughout their school. Stations included: Flint-Knapping, Beekeeping, Candle Making, Butter Making, and Square Dancing. Students also learned about fire safety from the Pacific Fire Department and heard a presentation on native animals from a representative of Robertsville State Park. Of course, the day couldn't have ended without bluegrass music, some kettle corn for a snack, and even old-fashioned games being played! #GrowingTogether
Another fun week at Nike starts tomorrow! See you at school, Scouts!!

📱 In today’s digital world, it’s important to set clear, healthy boundaries around social media use for children. Helping kids manage their time online promotes healthier habits, encourages meaningful connections, and protects their well-being. Here’s why setting boundaries is essential:
✨ Improves Mental Health & Well-Being - Limiting screen time reduces exposure to negative influences, online pressure, and distractions, helping kids stay focused and emotionally balanced.
✨ Promotes Digital Responsibility - Teaching children about appropriate online behavior and privacy helps build a strong foundation for responsible digital citizenship.
Let's keep #GrowingTogether, #MVNation!
