We have some amazingly talented students here at Appleton City! We were able to honor many talented students and their accomplishments in the Arts, Band, and Industrial Arts at our Fine Arts Banquet this evening.
Thank you to Mrs. Rivera, Mr. Swisher, Dr. Yancey, and Coach Bourland for all of their work with our amazing students. Proud to be a Bulldog!











Happy School Lunch Hero Day to these 4 great ladies! These ladies work hard every day to serve our students with a smile. They help to make breakfast and lunch time a favorite time of day for our students.

The Appleton City FCCLA is bringing the Community Blood Center blood drive back! Scan the QR code or sign up at
https://donate.savealifenow.org/donor/schedules/drive_schedule/80267 today! If no appointments are available, please email Dallas Gutshall at dgutshall@appletoncity.k12.mo.us.
We are only 21 donors away from our goal. Please help our chapter help our community!
The Community Blood Center provides the blood for our hospital in town and several neighboring communities. Since COVID-19, there has been a shortage of blood supplies. Please share info with as many people as possible. This is a wonderful opportunity to give toward a very worthy cause.

Our New Teacher Spotlight is Brittani Bartz! Brittani will be serving as an Elementary Teacher starting in the 2023-2024 school year. She was a student teacher for us a few years ago. We are happy to have her back!



Happy Administrative Professionals Day to our amazing staff! Malia and Jessica do a phenomenal job keeping their buildings running. They are the heart and soul of the Elementary and High School buildings.
Karen and Nelma are our wonderful Central Office staff who keep our District running. And a huge thank-you to Sarah Bourland as well. She has been transitioning into the role of Secretary to the Superintendent for next year as Nelma is retiring. She is already doing a great job!
A huge thank you goes out to these amazing staff members. We appreciate all you do! Thank you for representing our District so well!







Just a reminder...come see us tomorrow for a Community Spotlight Night event! Please note, due to the Booster Club needing to use the Commons, we will move our meeting to the Ag building.
We will start holding these community nights quarterly each school year in an effort to get the public more engaged and aware of what is happening within our District.
Our first event will be April 26th at 5:30 in the Ag building. The Agriculture Department will begin with a presentation highlighting their program. Following the presentation, Superintendent Sarah Miller will give updates on the District including improvements and financial information.
Anyone in the community is welcome to attend. Come see all the great things happening at ACR2!


It's another win for Bulldog Baseball tonight over Weaubleau! Way to fight hard, 'Dogs!
