The Criminal Justice class started off the year with the sheriff of New Madrid County, Mr. Joey Higgerson and the sheriff of Dunklin County, Mr. Nick Darter coming to talk to the students. Both of these guys are alumni of NMCC and we were glad to welcome them back. They were able to share lots of great information with our students about their job and law enforcement.

Students in Ms. Amy McElveen's afternoon Teaching Pathways class spent the afternoon learning first-hand how college extension programs impact our area. Students were invited to the ribbon cutting ceremony where Lincoln University Cooperative Extension's new Charleston Outreach Office was dedicated to Ms. Sherry Maxwell for her tireless work with youth across the Bootheel, including students from NMCR-1 school district.
Students met The Honorable Mike Kehoe, Governor of the great state of Missouri, along with his wife, Claudia. They also met Senator Jamie Burger and Senator Del Taylor along with several members of the Missouri State Highway Patrol.
Students enjoyed the program and represented NMCR-1 with pride. Students were inspired while participating in active civic engagement that brought real-world connections to things they've learned in the classroom. It gave them invaluable networking opportunities that they will never forget.

CHICKEN COOP CHAOS - Mr. Edgar's Building Trades class used basic carpentry skills such as measuring, cutting, hammering, and assembling, to build chicken coops. This was a partner project to provide a coop for Mr. Hunziker. Students loved doing this hands-on project where they were able to apply tool safety and problem-solving skills as well as engineering and math concepts to their project.
Cadet Teachers from the PM Teaching Pathways' class enjoyed their first day back. They missed their students and enjoyed being back in the classroom/gym working with students at Middle School and New Madrid Elementary. Everyone is looking forward to helping students excel during second semester.
