📢 Looking Ahead: Let’s Plan for a Strong Year Together! 📢
🗓️ The first day of school is Tuesday, August 19, 2025!
We know it’s never too early to start planning—and we want to help! As you look ahead to family time and appointments, please take note of our scheduled school breaks for the 2025–2026 year.
📚 Why it’s important:
Attendance matters. Each day your child is in school helps build the foundation for their learning, growth, and success. Missed days mean missed moments—both academically and socially.
✅ Planning around school breaks helps avoid unnecessary absences and ensures your child stays on track.
We appreciate your support and partnership in making every school day count

A year from now, this building will be complete! We are excited to share the progress of the North Callaway Elementary School project. Steel for the building is being established on the front of the building, and today they are pouring the footings for the storm shelter, which is the cafeteria and library. The new high school parking lot will be completed for the first day of school and the Callaway Cup.
Thank you to our many patrons, especially our TLC families, coaches, and student-athletes, who've adjusted this summer to keep construction moving forward. This is truly a community project and a testament to our District's commitment to a quality education for every Thunderbird.

Yesterday, Missouri Governor Mike Keheo signed Senate Bill 68, a large education bill, into law. One significant part of this legislation was changes to student personal communication devices for all public schools and charter schools in the State. Please see the attached letter regarding this change for the North Callaway R-1 School District.
Hey everyone! It's time to gear up for an exciting new 2025-2026 sports season! Join us for a Fall Sports Parent Meeting on August 10th at North Callaway High School.
The meeting will begin at 6:00pm. Afterward, Fall coaches will meet individually with their teams' parents to go over season details. Let's kick off the year with strong support, great energy, and a winning mindset. We can't wait to see what this season brings!
🎒✏️ Great News for the 2025-2026 School Year! 📚🖍️
We are thrilled to announce that school supplies will be provided for ALL North Callaway students for the upcoming school year!
This amazing opportunity is made possible thanks to the generous support of United Security Bank through the T-Bird Debit Card Program, our incredible NCR1 patrons, and memorial donations honoring Richard Fulk.

📚✨ Big thanks to our amazing PTO for the incredible upgrades to the NCMS Library! Thanks to their generous donation, we now have beautiful new copies of classic books—each displayed on stylish book easels.
Our cozy reading nook also got a colorful makeover with fun, comfy floor cushions—perfect for curling up with a good book.
We can’t wait for students to enjoy these fantastic additions this fall! 💚📖 #ThankYouPTO #NCMSLibrary #ReadersWelcome
Summer school field trips are the best.
Things are happening at the building site for the new North Callaway Elementary School building!
Construction Progress
Since March, much of the work has focused on site preparation and utility installation for the
new building. We’re thrilled to share that concrete is being poured today for the K-2 wing!
Because this is a pre-engineered metal building, construction will move forward in sections. The
K-2 wing at the front of the building comes first, followed by the administrative wing and the
Thunderbird Learning Center. We anticipate seeing major progress throughout June and July!
Upcoming Improvements
Beginning Tuesday, May 29, Coil Construction will start grading for a brand-new high school
parking lot. This gravel lot will offer daily parking for students and staff, as well as convenient
access for football games, track meets, and other large school events.
Looking Ahead
We expect the new parking lot to be ready by the start of school in August. In the meantime,
we’re working closely with vendors to select playground equipment, order new furniture, and
enhance school safety with updated cameras and a modern intercom system.
Thank you for your continued support as we grow and improve together. We’re excited about the
future and know this project would only be happening with your support.
🎉 You're Invited! 🎉
Join us for our Annual Retirement Reception & Teacher/Staff of the Year Banquet as we celebrate our amazing retirees and honor the outstanding educators and staff who go above and beyond every day.
📅 Check out the attached invitation for all the details—we’d love to see you there! 💐👩🏫👨🏫 #ThunderbirdProud
