Students in grades K-8 would be offered enrichment classes with the potential of educational field trips.

Cardinal Families,
We will be working on re-routing our buses over Winter Break. We are trying to minimize the amount of time a student spends on our buses. Currently, one of our bus routes takes around one hour and 15 minutes to complete.
If you are a current bus rider, you can expect a call from your driver AFTER New Year's Day with the new pick up time.
Thank you for your understanding!
Beth Christensen, Niangua R-V Transportation Director
