Annually, the Morgan County R-II School District is required to participate in the Missouri State Highway Patrol Bus Safety Inspection. The annual inspection requires an extensive review of all safety features and equipment on every bus in the overall bus fleet.

We are excited to report that our bus fleet passed inspection! We would like to thank and congratulate our Transportation Department and thank our bus drivers and mechanics for their hard work and dedication in keeping our buses safe for all students.

   Missourians benefit every day from the dedicated energies and countless hours devoted by the more than 3,600 local school board members in every community across the state. These public servants are elected by local constituents and do not receive compensation for their tireless efforts. As citizens who serve students and represent their communities, school board members face complex and demanding challenges.   

    During the month of March, communities across the state take time to honor the dedicated service of local boards of education during School Board Recognition Month as proclaimed by Governor Kehoe. 

    School Board Recognition Month is sponsored by the Missouri School Boards’ Association. The Missouri School Boards’ Association is a private, not-for-profit organization that exists to help school boards ensure all students succeed.

We thank our school board members for their commitment to our community and to the students and staff of the Morgan County R-II School District.

Our Board of Education Members are:

Dwayne Schad - President

April Boicourt - Vice President

Brad Chamberlain - Treasurer

Lori Croy - Member

Rosalie Dear - Member

Brian Rasa - Member

Cassie Wilhelm - Member
