GR-8 has some celebrating to do! We were notified of the following: Congratulations! Your work this year implementing Schoolwide Positive Behavior Supports has earned the MO SW-PBS Tier 1 Award of Excellence. This recognition signifies your school’s implementation of PBIS with high quality at the Universal (Tier 1) Level. We want to thank you for the efforts you have made in training your staff, working with students, and helping parents. These efforts make success possible for more students who attend your school. The PBIS conference was last week and this group of educators attended to accept the recognition and to gather more ideas to make our journey even better!

We are proud to recognize Ariana Burton, an outstanding 8th grade student at Green Ridge, for her leadership, initiative, and community service. As part of her Eagle Scout Project, Ariana chose a project that will have a lasting impact on the safety of our entire school. She worked side by side with High School Principal Mr. Rodney Edington to come up with a great way to display labels for every exterior exit and classroom window throughout the building—making it easier for emergency response teams to navigate quickly and effectively in any situation. Ariana had lots of support and volunteers to assist her in putting up the vinyl on doors and windows. Ariana and Mr. Edington also collaborated with local EMS personnel to reorganize and renumber the building layout in a way that makes logical sense to first responders. Her attention to detail, teamwork, and commitment to student and staff safety are nothing short of inspiring.

We have lots of caretakers in our community. Many times we have someone stopping by to show our teachers and staff how much they are appreciated in our community. Here is a couple of big shout outs to some amazing supporters! Thank you Green Ridge Baptist Church for bringing snacks to the staff. It was wonderful and greatly appreciated! Also, thanks to Jennings Arena and Gene's Boots and Hat store (Anicka waited in line for 2 hours!) for sending Hurt's Donuts to the staff at school. Those were sugar stoked energy for us to finish out the week! And even sent shirts to Mr Edington and Mr H!

Tiger Nation & Green Ridge Community, It is that time, past that time in some cases, that our area farmers are out and about on the roads and in the fields planting crops, spraying and fertilizing. Please use caution and give our farmers plenty of room while on the roadways driving. Tiger Nation is extremely grateful and thankful for our family farms and farmers in the area.

TIGER NATION
To the Tiger Nation Softball Team, Congratulations on winning Districts—for only the second time in our school’s history. What you’ve accomplished isn’t just historic… It's legendary. You’ve made your mark, not just in the record books, but in the hearts of every student, every teacher, every fan, and every future Tiger who dares to dream big. But let me ask you something—is your story done? You’ve battled. You’ve bled. You’ve shown heart, grit, and an unyielding hunger that refuses to quit. You’ve embodied everything it means to wear the Tiger uniform—pride, toughness, unity, and fire. The foundations of Tiger Nation were built on relentless determination and belief in each other, and you’ve carried that legacy with honor. But now, as the dust settles from your incredible District win, we have to look ahead. Do you believe this is where it ends? Do you believe there’s nothing left to prove? Or… Do you believe there’s more to accomplish? More fences to clear. More games to win. More history to make. Because I’ll tell you this—teams with talent can win games. But teams with heart, grit, and an unbreakable will? Those teams become champions. Those teams become legends. Can a team like that be beaten? Only if they stop believing. Only if they stop fighting. Only if they believe their story is finished. But I don’t think you’re done. I don’t think you’ve even hit your stride. So as the next challenge comes into view—I challenge you to ask yourselves: Is our story done? Or is this just the beginning of something unforgettable? Tiger Nation believes in you. We’re behind you. And we can’t wait to see where this journey leads. With pride, Mr. H On behalf of Tiger Nation Brett Hieronymus Superintendent Green Ridge R-VIII School District 660-527-3315 TIGERNATION! "The tragedy of life is not found in failure but complacency. It is not failure but aiming too low, that is life's greatest tragedy."- Benjamin Mays

Two years ago when I was hired as the superintendent of Green Ridge R-VIII I challenged myself, the staff, the students and this community to Restore The Roar and define Tiger Nation. Green Ridge R-VIII is strong with traditions and culture and it was my goal to instill this into our new generation of Tiger Nation. I cannot think of anyone more deserving, or who embodies what Tiger Nation is more than: Bobby Brown. Bobby, thank you for helping me bring Tiger Nation alive and to Restore The Roar! Tiger Nation and Green Ridge R-VIII is a better place because of your impact! TIGER NATION!! Mr. Brown will be inducted into the Tiger Hall of Fame this Saturday! Congratulations and well deserved young man!
