PSAT Sign Ups for MHHS Sophomores and Juniors:
We're doing some simple dress up days at all grade levels next week for BEAT HARRISON WEEK! Here's the list! All are welcome to participate!
Sixth grade science students at Pinkston Middle School will work together all year on laboratory experiences, so their teachers always starts the year with some collaborative team-building activities. These activities promote working well together, developing new relationships, and building trust with one another.
The art teachers at Mountain Home Public Schools are continuing a tradition that started years ago with Mrs. Beth Ivens, a retired art teacher legend. Each summer, prior to the beginning of the school year, all of the district art teachers submit a personal artwork to be displayed in the lobby of Dunbar Auditorium. Every couple months the works will be replaced by artwork from student artists across the school district.
Pictured: Mrs. Libby Posey (Pinkston Middle School), Mrs. Isabella Phares (Nelson-Wilks-Herron), Mrs. Christy Lawrence (Mountain Home High School), Mr. Steve Hargett (Mountain Home High School), Mrs. Dora Norcross (Hackler Intermediate School), Mrs. Leeanne Jackson (Hackler Intermediate School), and Mrs. Tilda Helgesson (Mountain Home Junior High).
Mrs. Kelli was a shining light in the MHK Cafeteria. We will miss her! Bomber Nation is thinking of her beloved family and friends during this difficult time.

The 2024 MHHS Bomber Yearbook pick up will begin with Bomberfest tonight. The yearbook staff will be stationed at a booth inside the stadium. If a past 2024 Senior has someone else picking up his/her book, we need to see/hear a text, email, or phone call from that senior as proof to hand their book to someone else.
Next week (M-Th), Ms. Reed at MHHS will be available after school till 3:30 to hand out yearbooks to current MHHS students in the CAB Conference room.
The staff will also hand out yearbooks on next Friday during both lunches at the club fair.
20224 graduates may also email Ms. Reed (ereed@mhbombers.com) or call 425-1215 to have yearbooks brought to the front office for pick up. (Please call one day in advance of pickup).

We hear that our very own Mr. Rick (paraprofessional and ASL interpreter) is teaching this course. Could be a valuable learning experience for kids or families!
Ben Luelf, a MHPS graduate and vice president of American Epoxy Scientific, noticed the bright yellow countertops in the GBCCA office (circa 1970s) and offered to replace them with the help of his company. We thank American Epoxy Scientific for this donation and for allowing Mr. Luelf to serve on our manufacturing industry community advisory board. Our Bombers -- past and present -- are out making a difference locally and beyond!
