Celebrating the positive at MMS. These students picked up trash on our playground this morning. Keep up the good work Katie Blair, Kamdynn Turner, Kaeidynce Langley, and Natalie Slusher. Go Dragons!

Welcome back Dragons! The 3 day weekend was great, but today it's time to get back to work growing our skills, and learning new things.

Dragons have a great day. 😊

How awesome it is that September has arrived! Now just to get some cooler temperatures around here.

MMS and MHS have a new nurse this year - Nurse Lacey Rogers, RN. She is needing parents to return their student's enrollment packets so that she knows what approved OTC treatments your student can have (i.e. Tylenol. Iburprofen, Benadryl, etc.). Until this packet is returned, if your student needs an OTC treatment, she won't be able to provide it to them.

The weather is going to continue to be warm. Parents, please help us with enforcing the school dress code. There is a time and place for crop tops to be worn. If the shirt doesn't stay down when the arms are raised, then it is too short to wear to school. Thank you for your help and attention to this matter.

The first week of the 2024 Dragon Football season is here! Coach Dean's letter about admission and season passes is below along with reminders about Dragon Stadium.

MES will be celebrating Grandparents Day on September 6.

SHOUT OUT to MHS Freshman Aubrey Stanley! Her mom, Samantha Stanley, just posted this: I honestly just have no words at the moment…if you only knew what all it took to get here. All the hard work paid off and everything came together for this team to lay down an absolutely BEAUTIFUL pattern and come out RESERVE STATE CHAMPION in the Buckaroo (13U) Horsemanship with her highest score yet, 160.5!! Proud is an understatement.

THANK YOU MOUNTAINBURG and MOUNTAINBURG STUDENTS AND TEACHERS! The Hot Wheels for Darren drive was a success beyond anything we expected! Between what was collected at MHS and MES, over 250 Hot Wheels cars were donated for Darren! His sister, Chloe, is taking several to him this weekend. We appreciate everyone's generosity this week.

The start of the 2024 football season is one week away! We will be posting communications about the game against Cedarville over the next week, but below is a reminder from Coach Dean's letter concerning admission to sporting events for the 2024-2025 seasons. Coach Dean's Letter is posted below.

Important tips for keeping families safe with online activities. Thanks Morgan Nick Foundation for sharing.

Parents - Our district partners with Heritage Photography in Van Buren for a lot of our picture needs. Scheduling for the next school year starts in May or June. The district calendar that houses all scheduled activities is used to determine the dates for pictures each year. Every effort is made to avoid conflicts during the school day and after school. We work to stick to this schedule as much as possible; however, situations may arise that could prompt a change in the schedule. Communications will be sent out as soon as possible should this occur. If you have any questions, you can email Mrs. Christian at misty.christian@mountainburg.org or use Rooms if your student is in one of her classes. The 2024-2025 Picture Day Schedule is provided at this link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JEtyFSs94ACGaGz6_59xh2Q5gfOzDyl4/view?usp=sharing The Picture Day graphic below will be used for posting and in the Dragon Weekly when a picture day is coming up.
