The Chillicothe R-II Board of Education listened to several Chillicothe Elementary students as they shared what it means to be a bucket filler last (Tuesday) night at the regular meeting held at the Administrative Offices. We enjoyed learning about what they are learning at CES!

Chillicothe R-II is now the proud owner of a brand new, 71-passenger bus, which was recently delivered by Central States Bus Sales. The District bought the $96,980 bus with Volkswagen grant funds and a $36,000 District match. We hope our students enjoy their new ride!
