October is National Principals Month and we are honoring the absolute BEST! 🏈🐻
Behind every great school is a leader who shows up, pushes us to be our best, and builds a culture where everyone feels like family. For us, that leader is Mrs. Wyman.
Mrs. Wyman leads with love every single day. She sets high standards because she genuinely believes in our potential, and then gives us the trust and freedom to achieve it. Whether it's guiding us to help our students succeed or stepping right up to the line, she leads by example without hesitation. She inspires all of us to Bear Down, tackle every challenge head-on, and give our all for our kids.
In true Mike Ditka fashion, she proves that real leadership isn't just about calling the plays from the sidelines; it's about heart, hustle, grit, and putting the team first.
Mrs. Wyman, thank you for your unwavering support, your trust, and for making our school a home. We are so grateful to have you steering the ship! 🧡💙
Today is National Teaching Assistants' Day and we are giving a huge shoutout to our incredible Instructional Assistants at Maryville Elementary! 🌟
Behind every successful classroom, every breakthrough moment, and every smooth school day is a dedicated team of Instructional Assistants working tirelessly for our students. From offering one-on-one support and helping guide small groups to keeping energy and morale high, your hard work does not go unnoticed.
Thank you Mrs. Terri, Ms. Hunter, Mrs. Hass, Mrs. Grace, Mrs. Wampler, Mrs. Riley, and Ms. Rosie!! Thank you for your patience, your enthusiasm, and the endless heart you bring to our school community every single day. We love you and couldn't do it without you!❤️💙

Scroll through the pictures for directions on downloading the Beanstack app. Good Luck and Happy Reading!
Happy IT Professionals Day to the legend himself, Mr. Adam! 💻✨
Whether he’s solving actual tech mysteries or gently reminding us to check if the cord is plugged in (no judgment here! 😂🔌), he does it all with the biggest smile. Maryville is so lucky to have the most patient tech guru around!
🥁 Fun fact: When he’s not saving our screens, Mr. Adam is dropping beats as a successful drummer and music producer! Talk about a rockstar on and off the clock. ⚡🥁
Thank you for keeping us connected and always brightening our day, Mr. Adam! 🙌

Happy Arts in Education Week! Today, we are shining the spotlight on one of our school’s truest gems, the incredible Mrs. Tabler! 🎭✨🎨🎶
As our M.A.D.D. (Music, Art, Drama, Dance) History teacher, Mrs. Tabler wears a million different hats. Whether she’s leading our Morning Broadcast Team, guiding our nationally recognized STLP Team, or producing and directing our spectacular Disney, Jr. Musicals, her dedication to our students shines through in everything she does. 🌟🎤🎥
Growing up on Tweety Bird and Peanuts taught her everything she needs to know about life. And if you ever wonder what keeps her energy up for rehearsals, it’s plain cheese pizza—classic, reliable, and universally loved, just like our Mrs. Tabler. 🐥🍕
Thank you, Mrs. Tabler, for your years of leadership, passion, and creativity. Our school wouldn't be the same without you! ❤️💙

We're giving a big shout out to the queen of balancing the books, some people might even call her the second most important person in our building! Happy National Bookkeeper Appreciation Week to Lisa Hester! 📊✨ Lisa, thanks for making sure the numbers always add up, even when our math isn't mathing. You keep our finances organized and our stress levels low. Thank you for all you do to keep our ship sailing. There's truly no one like you!
Our 4th graders had a special visitor on Friday! Officer Priddy and his K9 partner, Vader, dropped in for an interactive Q&A session. From learning what it takes to be a police officer to discovering how K9s complete their training, our students asked some fantastic questions! Thank you, Officer Priddy and Vader, for protecting our community and visiting our school! 🚔🐾✨

🗣️ Attention Patriots! Friday is Spirit Day! Wear your best red, white, and blue for Towne Hall and Golden Ticket Day. Let's have a great day showing our Patriot Pride! ❤️🤍💙
Biztown Mayor elections were held at school today. Caylynn, Katherine, and Aprilynn ran a tight race and all three gave great speeches. After the ballots were counted, Aprilynn was declared the winner. Congratulations to all of the candidates on a job well done today. We're so proud of you.
Stay warm and safe, Patriot family! ❄️
While we truly miss seeing our students' faces in our hallways, our top priority is ensuring everyone stays safe and out of the cold. As Dr. Bacon mentioned, there will be no in-person learning tomorrow or Tuesday.
Tomorrow is a Traditional Snow Day, and all district and school facilities will remain closed. We are also pausing all extracurricular activities through Monday to keep everyone off the roads.
Dr. Bacon and his team will be monitoring the conditions closely and will update the community on the plans for Tuesday (NTI vs. Snow Day) as soon as possible.
Stay safe, stay warm, and we'll see you soon. ☃️
