Most kids his age can only dream about the things that 8th Grader Jackson Cantwell can do while throwing a shot put. Go to any junior high track meet and you will see opposing coaches and players gathering around Jackson as he easily outdistances his peers in the shot put competition. Jackson who already owns a world record in his age division is looking forward to competing next year in high school, and has a goal of winning a state medal as a freshman.

"Theatre is my escape in times when I don’t know how to connect with my feelings. I’ve grown to know so many new people and not only am I closer to others in the department I’m also closer to myself. I’m incredibly thankful for the opportunities I have been given.” - Illyria Bogner

"Illyria is an exceptional leader in the theatre program. She is such a driven young woman inspiring students around her to never underestimate themselves. She builds others up while encouraging them to be better. I appreciate how Illyria sees areas of weakness in the program and works to strengthen them." - Dr. Allison Fleetwood

The Back to School Bash was created to provide our Nixa families with a little extra support before they start school. The event will supply each student with a backpack, hygiene supplies, basic school supplies (based on the student's grade level), a new pair of shoes, and additional resources.

Need Help Getting School Supplies for Next Year?

The only requirement is to be a Nixa Public Schools student who needs assistance. There are no income requirements or other restrictions. We will also provide connections to other services to make sure you are supported throughout the school year. To Sign Up, Click Here

How to Donate to the Back to School Bash:

It may be difficult to understand the impact that one can bring to a child through a random act of kindness. We are calling for the community to rally around our annual Back to School Bash. This event provides hundreds of Nixa students with specific school supplies and essentials items they need. To Donate, Click Here
