Our new website launches today, bringing school updates, Live Feed highlights, news, meal menus, and our events calendar together at www.nodawayvalley.org. The website transition will start around noon.
Make the website your first stop for school information! Everything we post on our main Facebook page will also be available on the website, and the website will include additional information that may not appear on Facebook. Our events calendar will become the place to check upcoming activities and schedule changes, replacing Monday Bound preview posts.
Updates from several school-related Facebook pages will now be shared through our website and main district Facebook page, making it easier to stay connected with our school community in one place.
Thank you for joining us as we make school information easier to find!
Support a great cause with a neon pink Wolverines Pink Out shirt! Featuring a “Stronger Together” design, all proceeds benefit the Adair County Health Foundation to support the radiology department.
Orders are due Thursday, October 22. Scan the QR code on the flyer to order yours!

Website Maintenance Notice
Our school website will be temporarily unavailable for scheduled maintenance on Friday, October 16, beginning sometime after 12 p.m.
