The 54 year old grand piano at Moniteau Jr./Sr. High School is undergoing some significant repairs in order to make it usable again. This project will enable the Music Department to host large events and hold unique musical assemblies.
Blackwood Arts has graciously agreed to match any donations received, up to $3,000 to assist in completing this project. Anyone willing to donate money to the repair of the grand piano can make a check payable to Moniteau School District with “piano repair” written in the subject line. Donations can be delivered to the high school office or the administration office.

On October 17, sophomore students took a powerful and impactful field trip to The Flight 93 Memorial in Shanksville, PA. Moniteau was lucky to have been selected to receive a scholarship from the Friends of Flight 93 National Memorial Foundation, which provided the opportunity for a personalized tour of the museum, as well as covering all transportation costs.
Students spent the day touring the memorial and visitors center, as well as visiting the Wall of Names near the crash site. They were led by Ranger Gregory, who provided detailed facts and first-hand account information from September 11, 2001. Moniteau students were quiet and respectful while visiting this solemn ground and were complimented for their behavior.
Thank you to Mrs. McBryar, Mr. Knox, and Dr. Borkowski for chaperoning our students on this important and successful field trip.
