The Archie Elementary Family Newsletter for October is ready to go!
We hope you’ll find helpful information, resources, and updates for your family. This month, we’re excited to share some new sections, photos, and resources that you won’t want to miss!
We also encourage you to take a few moments to read the section about current education legislation. Staying informed helps families understand the issues and decisions affecting education. As voters, community members, and families, your voices are an important part of the conversation.

The HS cheerleaders would like to invite you to watch their homecoming routine before the game on Friday at 6:40pm!
JH Football traveled to Lockwood tonight. They battled hard, but came up short. We were able to play a 5th quarter for some extra playing time.
The Archie School District participated in the WEMO Conference Professional Development Day at Rich Hill today!
WEMO superintendents began planning this special event last year, including booking nationally recognized presenter Gerry Brooks for the big day. Staff members also had the opportunity to choose from a variety of relevant breakout sessions designed to support their professional growth.
We were proud to have Mrs.Mooney, Mr. Thompson and Dana McIntire represent Archie by leading breakout sessions and sharing their knowledge with fellow educators.
A great deal of time, planning, and effort went into making today a meaningful day of learning and collaboration. Thank you to everyone who helped make it such a valuable experience for our staff!

After a hard fought day, the High School volleyball team finished 3rd in the Midway tournament after defeating Prairie View in two sets. Congratulations ladies! Thank you to everyone who came to support us today.
The Whirlwinds traveled to Bishop LeBlond this evening and came up short, but they never stopped battling! After a tough first half, the Whirlwinds came back strong in the second half and fought hard until the final whistle. 🌪️🏈
A big shoutout to our Whirlwind cheerleaders for bringing the energy and keeping the Whirlwind spirit going all night! 📣❤️
Thank you to all the Whirlwind supporters who made the trip and cheered on our team. We appreciate you!

Our Lady Whirlwind Volleyball Team met the Lady Bulldogs at Liberal Thursday, September 24, 2026. Varsity fought and played some very close sets, but were outmatched in the fourth. Our JV Whirlwinds were victorious in their set. These ladies are tough!! Great playing, team and coach!
🎓 College & Career Exploration!
Archie High School students attended the Butler College and Career Fair today! Students had the opportunity to gather information, ask questions, and connect with representatives from a variety of:
🎓 Colleges & universities
🛠️ Trade and technical schools
💼 Local careers and employers
🪖 Military branches
This event is sponsored through rootEd Alliance and is part of the career exploration opportunities provided to our students. rootEd works with rural high schools to help students explore their options after graduation and develop a plan for their future—whether that path includes college, technical training, an apprenticeship, entering the workforce, or military service.
We appreciate opportunities like this that allow our students to explore the many different paths available to them after high school! A big thank you to Mrs. Mell and Angela Donald for arranging this event for our students. 🌪️
