AmeriCorps recognized in national newsletter
Waynesville R-VI’s AmeriCorps program was highlighted in the November 2024 issue of the nationwide AmeriCorps newsletter.
The newsletter stated the following, “The Waynesville AmeriCorps Program provides academic support through tutoring, mentoring, service-learning, and enrichment, with fitness and wellness support, to students in the Waynesville, Saint Robert, and Fort Leonard Wood Communities in Missouri. More than seven out of 10 of the students supported are military-connected children whose parents predominately serve at Fort Leonard Wood. AmeriCorps members help lead Club TIGER, an afterschool program that lets students explore and develop their talents, while gaining critical thinking skills for learning through the delivery of high quality, hands-on, project-based programs in a variety of content areas. During the 2023 – 2024 school year, 45 members served in the Waynesville R-VI School District with about one-third of those members being high school seniors serving in after school programs and summer school.”



There will be no school in the Waynesville R-VI School District on Monday, Nov. 11, 2024, in observance of Veterans Day.
