- 18: Falcon Foundations - Mrs. Stokes
Falcon Foundations has a field trip scheduled to the new Assisted Living Center in Wardsville. Auburn Ridge Living Center is located at 1425 Ashbury Way, Jefferson City, MO 65101.
We will go there next Monday, November 18th after school. This is optional to attend. Any adults that would like to stay and help direct kids are welcome to do so.
Students must arrange their own transportation there and home.
We will play a Minute-to-Win-It game with the residents. Depending on the amount of students that attend, some will play and some will decorate the residents' doors. Students need to be picked up between 4:45-5pm if they can attend.

We Need Your Help
Every three years, the Counseling Department asks for feedback from parents, students, and staff as part of the Missouri Comprehensive Guidance and Counseling model. This is an important piece of feedback to determine the direction of counseling in the Blair Oaks R-II School District. Please take 2-3 minutes to give the district counselors your thoughts. Thanks so much!
