We are thrilled to announce that all three of our elementary schools have earned statewide PBIS honors together for the very first time—an outstanding testament to our district’s commitment to positive school culture and student success!
Tier 3 Award of Excellence:
Maple Elementary
Eagle Heights Elementary (first time!)
These two schools achieved the highest level of recognition from MO‑SWPBIS and the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. Their data-driven, team‑based implementation of PBIS strategies has created safe, supportive learning environments where every child can thrive.
Tier 1 Award of Excellence:
Horizon Elementary (first time!)
Horizon’s Tier 1 honor celebrates universal systems and practices that ensure school‑wide consistency, positive reinforcement of expectations, and proactive support for all students.
Having every elementary building recognized together is a milestone we’re proud to share. Congratulations to our Maple, Eagle Heights, and Horizon Elementary teams—your dedication to the PBIS model is making a real difference in our students’ lives!


😎 Warriors, you did it, another year in the books! Thank you for continuing to make the Smithville School District a school community we’re all proud to be part of. Summer Break is from May 29th to August 18th. Have a great summer, Warriors, you deserve it! 💚


This semester, we showed and celebrated our Warrior pride to the fullest! Let's take a look back at some of our favorite highlights from this school year:
🏃 Warrior pride was on full display the night of the Warrior Color Fun Run! Vibrant hues filled the sky as our community joined together to celebrate Happiness, Health, and Belonging!
🎨: Our students' unmatched creativity was on full display at the District Art Show, Warriors of all ages had the ability to share their beautiful artwork.
🎓: Smithville High School seniors took a stroll down memory lane, walking through hallways with cheering students, visiting each school across the district.
❤️💛: Red Friday at Smithville Middle School, students showed off their Chiefs pride in preparation for the upcoming Super Bowl.
🧠: Eagle Heights Elementary school students spoke about the importance of having a growth mindset and never giving up!
🍽️: Maple Elementary students spoke with SHS seniors in the trading card program about the importance of being drug- and alcohol-free. These seniors are positive role models in our community.
🧪: Horizon Elementary students were tasked with creating an amusement park ride using rulers, rubber bands, binder clips, and a heavy book.
We're incredibly proud of all our Warriors and the amazing things they've accomplished this year! We can't wait for next year and all that it will bring. As always, it's a great day to be a Warrior!
