Book Tasting Week! 📚☕️
Our 5th graders spent this week exploring new books, discovering different genres, and finding stories they just might want to read next! They had such a fun time “tasting” books and sharing their thoughts along the way.
The goal of our Book Tasting was to give students the opportunity to step outside their usual choices, explore new genres, and experience reading in a fun and engaging way—all while encouraging a lifelong love of reading.
We are incredibly grateful to the community sponsors who helped make this experience possible! Our students enjoyed so many thoughtful donations from:
- Geno’s Pizza in Alma: Cookies
- Catfish Hole in Alma: Snacks and Drinks
- Olive Coffee Company: Hot Chocolate
- The Boujee Lemon: Lemonade
- The Coffee Parlor: Lemonade & Cake Pops
- Perk Coffee: Juice
- Chapters on Main: Book Certificates
- Julia Watkins with the Mountainburg Public Library: Snacks & a Monetary Donation
- Brittany Moore: Snacks and Drinks
And a special thank-you to the community members who chose to donate anonymously. Your generosity means just as much!
We are so thankful for a community that invests in our students and helps us create meaningful experiences for them. This week would not have been possible without your support!
Mountainburg Schools Remembers 9/11
Today, Mountainburg Schools pauses to remember the lives lost and the countless lives forever changed by the tragedy of September 11, 2001.
We honor the courage of the first responders, the strength of the survivors, and the compassion shown by communities across our nation in the days that followed.
May we never forget the lives lost, the heroes who stepped forward, and the enduring spirit of unity and resilience that followed.
Where were you on that September day?
We remember. We honor. We will never forget.

The Jr. High Dragons get their 2nd win of the season over Two Rivers. Way to go, boys!
Every year, Mountainburg High School gives the ASVAB to Juniors. This year, we will be giving it on Thursday, September 17th. This is a career aptitude assessment that shows students in depth information about their strengths and gives them ideas about careers they would excel in. This is a great chance to get students diving deeper to figure out what their future after high school might look like. We are looking forward to offering this opportunity to students again!

Pictures will begin at 8:30 a.m.

History of the Crawford County Treasure Chest
Leonard Teague purchased a standard trophy back in 1988. This trophy was then passed back and forth between Mountainburg and Cedarville for many years to the winner of the game each year. When this trophy finally saw its last days, it became bragging rights until 2012 with the arrival of the present day Crawford County Treasure Chest.
The late Mr. Lewis Harrell constructed the present day Treasure Chest in 2012. Mr. Harrell was the father of Coach Tom Harrell, the longest tenured head football coach at Mountainburg High School. Coach Harrell was the head coach for Mountainburg Football for 32 seasons.
According to Coach Chris Nolen, there are a few years in which Mountainburg and Cedarville did not play so that is why there are some years that are not listed.
The atmostphere at the Battle for the Treasure Chest is always intense and a lot of fun. We invite everyone to come out to Dragon Stadium this evening to see who takes home this beloved trophy.
