Bus 9 is delayed due to a mechanical issue. All students are safe but are delayed 20 minutes. We appreciate your patience!
Maries Co. R 2 is still seeking bids for a sidewalk project between the Belle Elementary building and the Catholic Church. This sidewalk is used for afternoon pick-up. Please contact Tony Gieck if you are interested in submitting a bid for this project. It is a small project but is a huge need for our students and staff. If you have the skills (and the time) - we would appreciate a bid for completion of the project!
Computer Monitors
The Maries Co. R 2 School currently has 100 free computer monitors for anyone who would like to have one. Please contact Tony Benson at tbenson@mariesr2.org to arrange a pick-up time. There is no limit to the number that each person may pick-up.
If anyone wants to support the Belle Cross Country team by buying a T-shirt, let me know! You really can't have too many t-shirts anyway right? (It will NOT be a tank.... this is just the design, and it will have our school name on there as well).
Here are the details....
They are $15.00.
All sizes are available (Youth and Adult). Please get your orders in by Monday, August 30th. We are hoping to have these shirts in during the 2nd week of September.
All checks made out to Maries County R-II
It will be a grey t-shirt with white and red lettering

Bus Safety: It is important to all of us that our students arrive to school safely and home from school safely. We need the communities part in helping keep our students safe. When the buses are lined up dropping students off at the Middle School, please wait behind the buses to drop your student off from a car/truck. Please do not pull past the buses and drop your student off in the street in front of the buses. It is not safe for your student or the bus drivers. We appreciate your patience while we transition to the new year for drop off and pick up times.
First Morning

Thank you to our maintenance and custodial staff who worked so hard all summer to make sure we were ready for today. Thank you to our IT staff for making sure our internet and systems were working for our first day! We would not have had as good of a first day without all of their dedication to our students! Thank you!
The buses are running behind schedule on the first day of school. We took extra time to get our new Kindergarten students on the correct bus. All the buses left by 4:35 and are on the way to return our students safely home. We had a GREAT first day of school!
Back to School Tip: Go ahead and lay out everything you need for school tomorrow. Check backpacks to make sure your student is ready to go. Take a few minutes and take a Back to School photo and post it to this thread in Facebook. We cannot wait to see your backpacks and your smiles! It is going to be a great year. Let's go!!!!
Back to School Tip: August 24 FIRST DAY!
