SG Dragons GT Welcome to the official page of the Ste. Genevieve County R-II School District Gifted Classroom! About Us & Comment Guidelines:

Welcome! At the Ste. Please:

1.

Genevieve R-II School District, we are excited to offer diverse educational opportunities where each of our students can learn, grow and achieve success. We are a proud leader in education, consistently working to prepare our students for their futures. When they leave our halls and head out into the world, we hope to have given them a strong foundation to make a positive, meaningful impact. Each

year, we serve more than 1,800 students through our four schools (the high school, middle school, Ste. Genevieve Elementary, Bloomsdale Elementary) and our preschool program. You can check out each of their pages, along with our Performing Arts Center’s page, by scrolling down to our featured pages section located in the right-hand sidebar of our district’s page. Not only are we eager to share with you all of the wonderful activities going on in our classrooms and around the district, but we hope to create an inviting space here for our community, as well. We welcome the opportunity to engage with our parents and community members through our social media channels. We encourage dialogue that is open, honest and professional while being respectful of diverse viewpoints. Comment Guidelines

We have FIVE of our SIX teams attending state. If my last team had enough players to attend one of the their competitions, they would be at state as well. I am so incredibly proud of them all. They worked so hard to get here. Their dedication is inspiring.

Advancing to state requires months of engineering design, strategic problem-solving, iterative testing, and strong performance in both robot skills challenges and alliance tournament play. Teams must also document their process in detailed engineering notebooks and demonstrate collaboration and professionalism during judging interviews.

The VEX Robotics Competition challenges students to design, build, and program robots to complete complex game-based tasks alongside other teams. Throughout the season, students develop critical skills in coding, mechanical design, project management, teamwork, communication, and resilience. They learn to analyze data, refine prototypes, and adapt strategies under competitive pressure—mirroring real-world engineering practices.

Earning a place at the State Championship reflects not only technical excellence but also perseverance, innovation, and a commitment to continuous improvement. These teams represent the very best of student-driven achievement and will now compete among the top robotics programs in the state.

Two teams in the top ten! We are so incredibly proud of all of you. Despite the many challenges along the way, you pushed through with grit and determination.

If you’ve never been to one of these competitions, we invite you to join us for our very first Ste. Genevieve R-II School District's VEX IQ Tournament on February 7, 2026!

We have a sweet tradition the students insist on each year. They do a gift exchange and a holiday party!

I am so thankful for the family environment these students help create in our classroom all the way through high-school! It is truly a blessing to be a part of their adventures.

Thank you for all of the amazing, thoughtful, and generous presents. My heart is full.

Sincerely,
Ms. K.

We are proud of all of our robotics teams who competed in the annual Kirkwood tournament. Some of them have never competed in robotics before today.

They take a box of pieces and design their very own robot that performs skills for this year's competition (the challenges change every year). They enter matches collaborating with other schools, skills tests, program their robots to perform autonomously, speak to judges about their experiences, and write a book about their journey which are all judged at each event.

Our very own Mechanical Masters earned the Judges Award!

The Judges Award recognizes a team that demonstrates exceptional attributes, exemplary effort, and perseverance throughout the event, standing out to judge volunteers as especially deserving of special recognition. The team’s interview reflects strong communication skills, effective teamwork, professionalism, and a clear commitment to a student-centered ethos.

Our middle school students had the incredible opportunity to attend Missouri’s first-ever VEX IQ Robotics Signature Event. They collaborated with teams from across the U.S. and around the world, sharing ideas, problem-solving together, and pushing to earn the highest scores possible. They learned so much, made new connections, and had an absolute blast.

It was an amazing learning experience. When we returned home, the very first thing they asked was whether they could work on their robots during gifted class. I told them they were welcome to take a day off if they needed a break,
but they didn’t want one! They were eager to jump right back in and start refining their design ideas.

My heart is full. ❤️
