LTE: The Grade Is Not the Cake. It Is the Toothpick.

Dr. Gearl Loden’s recent letter in these pages mentions me by name, which surprised me, since we have never met. For readers now picturing someone seven feet tall with horns: I am five-foot-nine (and a half). I grew up in a small town outside St. Louis, was the first in my family to graduate from college, on a scholarship to Washington University, and began my career teaching in high-poverty schools. A good education changed the course of my life. I have spent the years since working so that every Missouri child gets the same chance.

Southwest Missouri area high school football district championship predictions

SPRINGFIELD — It’s one of the best weekends of high school football in Missouri. The district championship pits some of the state's best teams against each other. The winner heads to the next round of the playoffs, while the loser heads home. After going 4-1 in our picks last week, we're 52-12 overall. Here are our predictions for district championship high school football action in the Springfield area. All kickoffs are set for 7 p.m. Friday unless noted. No. 2 Ozark (5-5) at No. 1 Nixa (9-1) Nixa hosts Ozark for the Class 6 District 5 Championship game. The Eagles defeated the Tigers 45-28 on Sept. 25. Ozark has improved greatly since that game. The Tigers have won four of their last five games. Ozark has scored at least 42 points in all four of these wins. Nixa is trying to win its fourth straight district title. The Eagles will be without top offensive weapon Jax Adams for the remainder of the season. But Nixa’s offense, led by quarterback Adam McKnight, is still a fearless bunch. Expect many more carries for Reed Wilson and Josh Ford. Nixa 35, Ozark 28 Republic football: 'Greek God' Baelor Cutbirth emerging as a top

SPRINGFIELD — Revenge is a dish best served cold. On a chilly evening, Nixa soccer bested Glendale 1-0 behind a late goal to lift the Class 4 district championship on Monday, Nov. 9. This was Nixa’s first victory over Glendale since 2023, after losing five straight games. It’s a moment that many of the seniors have been dreaming of, especially goalkeeper Jackson Smith. “It feels great, senior year, we haven’t beat them since freshman year,” Smith said. “For us to come out and win a district championship, it feels good for our city, our team. I’m thrilled.” Smith had a stellar game, but when a hero was needed, Gavin Shaw rose to the occasion. Cross country: Gloria Deo's Caroline Fields wins Class 1 state title with sister by her side With three minutes remaining, Shaw received the ball on the left wing. The senior danced on the ball a few times, juking out Glendale’s defense. He drove towards the byline before firing a cross. The ball ricocheted off of a Glendale defender and snuck through the goal at the near post. “It’s definitely a top momentum of my life,” Shaw said. “Scoring a game-winner in the district championship is always
