As Teacher Appreciation Week winds down, we want to take a moment to thank the incredible educators who make a difference in the lives of our students. 💙🍎
If you have a teacher who has made an impact on your life or your child’s life, we encourage you to take a moment to thank them. A kind word or simple note of appreciation can mean more than you know.

Congratulations to Harper Bounds, a dedicated National Junior Honor Society officer at Mountain Home Junior High, on receiving the prestigious Outstanding Achievement Award. This national honor is awarded to only 500 students across the country and recognizes Harper’s exceptional leadership, character, service, and academic excellence. Mountain Home Junior High is proud to celebrate this incredible accomplishment and the example Harper sets for others every day.
Today, each Mountain Home Public School campus was proudly presented with its official Purple Star School banner, recognizing our continued commitment to honoring military service members, veterans, and the families who sacrifice alongside them. 💜🇺🇸
Students and staff across the district wore purple and gathered in representation of their schools as the banners were presented. This is a meaningful reminder that our military-connected students and families are valued, supported, and appreciated in every MHPS building.
Being recognized as Purple Star Schools reflects more than a designation; it represents our district’s commitment to creating a culture of respect, gratitude, and support for those who have served our country. Thank you to all military families in our Bomber community for your sacrifice and service. Go Bombers!

Terran Armocido, a 2025 Mountain Home High School graduate, has won the first-ever “Chopped” competition at Ozarka College, where he is currently pursuing a degree in Culinary Arts.
According to Chef Edwards, Lead Culinary Professor at Ozarka College:
“Terran outshined ten other students in a high-pressure Chopped-style competition, impressing the judges with both creativity and precision. He delivered a perfectly seasoned pork tenderloin paired with a bold and flavorful black fried rice that showcased his skill and confidence in the kitchen. To finish, he sealed his victory with a rich and indulgent cheesecake dip, leaving a lasting impression and earning the top spot.”
We love seeing our Bombers thrive after graduation—congratulations, Terran!
