Dear BGR-1 Family,
As we draw to the close of another summer school session and approach the final week of the fiscal year, I find myself reflecting on the incredible journey we've shared over the past seven years. Serving alongside such a dedicated and talented team has been a privilege and a joy.
I am humbled to have witnessed and been part of remarkable progress and achievement. Together, we’ve:
Secured the only two bond issues passed in the last 50 years, fueling significant improvements and expansion of our facilities.
Modernized our bus fleet, reducing the average age of our route buses from 11 years to just 4 before receiving delivery of yet another new bus just yesterday.
Elevated student achievement, propelling our state report card score from the middle of the pack before COVID into the top 20% among over 500 districts in Missouri.
Enhanced our compensation and benefits, moving our top-end teacher pay from mid-pack among the 58 school districts in Northeast Missouri to the top 15%, and introduced a well-received staff daycare.
Maintained fiscal responsibility, achieving a balanced or surplus budget for the majority of these seven years, all while keeping one of the lowest tax rates in the region.
Launched the first state-approved K-12 Gifted Program and Project Lead the Way Computer Science program in our district.
None of this would have been possible without the steadfast support and visionary leadership of our school board. Their commitment to our strategic plan goals has provided the steady governance needed for our district's continuous growth. Attached here: https://tinyurl.com/52czk2pj are notes from our latest board meeting, thoughtfully compiled by Dr. Twellman, which offer a high-level overview of our ongoing initiatives.
Looking ahead, we have much to be excited about. The Early Childhood Center is set to open, and the Prop S security and efficiency updates are nearing completion, alongside the expansion of our secondary library, the addition of two new storm shelters, and the creation of an ADA-accessible central office—all progressing ahead of or on schedule. These improvements will bring lasting benefits to our students and staff, ensuring a bright and prosperous future for our district.
As I transition to my new role in Troy, I am confident that Mr. Larson will find a supportive and dedicated community in all of you. Your partnership and collaboration will be crucial as he steps into this leadership position. I am filled with optimism for the future of our district and am deeply grateful for the blessings of the past seven years.
I look forward to staying in touch and celebrating your continued successes. Here’s to the next chapter—onward and upward!

Missouri National Guard's 135th Army Band Concert - July 2, 2024
The Missouri National Guard’s 135th Army Band invites you to celebrate the service of Veterans, current and past Service Members, military families, and your community members in a free summer concert featuring their Concert Band and Jazz Band in the auditorium of Bowling Green High School on July 2, 2024, at 6:00 pm.
The 135th Army Band is under the Command of Chief Warrant Officer 2 Keith Moyer and First Sergeant Charles Bart. The Citizen-Soldiers of the 135th Army Band represent a diverse group of individuals who proudly serve our great Nation and State. They are college students, engineers, teachers, music performers, pilots, business professionals, and your neighbors. As Soldiers of the Missouri Army National Guard, they stand ready to answer the call and to represent all those who have and will wear the uniform proudly. The 135th Army Band has performed for civic and military events both nationally and internationally, including concerts in Hawaii, Alaska, Germany, France, and all corners of Missouri, and is honored to include a stop in Bowling Green and Troy, MO, on its summer concert tour. This group is back by popular demand after an arousing performance last summer at the Bowling Green bicentennial celebration.
Just a Reminder that any student wanting to participate in sports for the 2024-25 school year must set up an account with Big Teams to be able to practice or play. There are 4 forms that the parent and the athlete will need to approve on the website. You also have to upload your physical to the site to be approved for practice. We still have several kids that need to approve forms and some that still need to create an account. Please use the instructions below to set up an account.
