The uncertainty of this school year has been like no other 😷. The staff at Mathews Elementary decided the best way to keep everyone's spirits up was to show teachers how appreciated they are with fun games, prizes, and thoughtful notes of encouragement 💪.

2nd-grade virtual students in Mrs. Dick's class are learning about sound. 🔉 If you put a hexagon nut in a balloon, 🎈 the vibration causes a fun sound when you move it in circles. Emerson demonstrated this for the class.

Mathews is beyond grateful to the Nixa Community Foundation for this amazing resource for our students. All students will have access to sensory paths throughout their school day to support school success thanks to their grant.
