We are thrilled to be recognized as a Missouri State School of Character! At Robertsville, we believe learning is incredible, but being a kind and caring person matters even more. Here, we strive for both!

At Robertsville Elementary, we love to say, “We’re a family here.” It’s a sentiment that reflects the deep connections between our staff, students, and the community. But today, we saw that saying come to life in an even more meaningful way.
Not only were our wonderful teachers, Mrs. Toney and Ms. Ratliff, here with us, but also their children, stepping in as substitute teachers! Mr. Toney and Miss Miller brought their own unique energy to the classroom, continuing the legacy of dedication and care that’s so deeply embedded in our school.

Jackson and Tori did a wonderful job of displaying our core value of Responsibility. These two cleaned up a water mess in the hallway. The nice part is that they saw the need and just helped out. No one asked them to help. In fact, they were the only ones in the hallway at the time.

Robertsville Elementary second graders had a truly memorable experience celebrating their Ancient Greek Civilizations unit. Holding their own Olympics with javelin throwing, marathons, and chariot races was a creative and engaging way to bring history to life. It's wonderful to see their enthusiasm and the efforts of their teachers to make learning fun and interactive. #MVNation #GrowingTogether
