We are an all day kindergarten with 16 students, located in the central part of the state of MO. We live in a small, rural community that was settled by Germans in the early 1800's. They settled here because the land reminded them of the Rhine River Valley. We are located along the Osage River and this flows into the Missouri River. An Indian tribe that settled here was the Osage Indians. Many artifacts have been found in our community. Our town, Taos Mo. is 12 miles away from the capitol of Missouri, Jefferson City. It is along the Missouri River and was named after Thomas Jefferson in 1821. Steamboat traffic was the main way goods were brought into the area. In 1896 the first bridge was built across the Missouri River. The main employer is the state, however Scholastic Books has a large portion of their company here. To get books we just have to go down the highway. Many of our parents work there. :o)
