The community of Archie, Missouri experienced an unthinkable tragedy the evening of December 7th, 2024. Just after winning the 8-man championship football game, three senior players were involved in a tragic car accident resulting in one fatality. One teen is still hospitalized and the other teen is recovering from injuries.
As a close community and small town, we must rally. We must come together in support of our boys and their families. There will be ongoing expenses as a result of this tragedy for those involved. During such a difficult time, we would love to try to ensure that the one thing no family has to worry about is financial responsibility.
We are able to have this fundraiser thanks to Chiefs legend Art Still.
Please share this fundraising opportunity for our families. Deadline for bids is Thursday at 9 pm.
All students and staff are invited to show their holiday spirit by participating in our dress up days this week! Remember we DO have school Monday and an early release day on Friday!#ArchieStrong
Tomorrow, Saturday, December 14, a Celebration of Life for Miles Eaglehawk Humbird will be held in the dome at the Archie R-V School. The service will begin at 2:00 p.m. Please enter through the west dome doors or the south main entrance.
