🌎✨ Earth Day Adventure at Northwest Missouri State University! ✨🌎 Our ACES students had an unforgettable day celebrating our planet! From learning the importance of recycling ♻️ to exploring a local tree farm (also called an arboretum or tree nursery) 🌱, every moment was hands-on and meaningful. They discovered how trees are grown, planted, and cared for—just like during Arbor Day celebrations that encourage caring for our environment. 🌳  Learning, exploring, and growing—today was a perfect reminder that even our smallest actions can make a big difference for our Earth. 💚

The Avenue School District needs to make room in the kitchen for bigger equipment, so therefore is officially purging high-quality, commercial-grade smaller sized kitchen equipment. These items are in "like-new" condition and are being offered at significant discounts compared to market retail prices.
Items are sold as-is, and buyers are responsible for any necessary transport and logistics. Contact Superintendent Grimes for details at 816-662-2305 or bgrimes@avenuecityschool.org

The weather may not be able to make up its mind lately—one day it’s sunshine, the next it’s chilly and gray—but here at ACES, we’ve already made up ours… we’re here to learn! Rain, shine, or a little bit of both—we’re making every moment count!
