We hope you were all as excited to be back at school as our 1st grade buddy Hayes was this morning. Hayes insisted on wearing his new suit today to show his enthusiasm for a new year!
Wishing all our Bombers joy and cheer this holiday season and a bright new year ahead! See you January 4!

Mrs. Dewey's December Board Update:
Bombers loved having breakfast for lunch last week! Thanks to our awesome food service department for your work! Our students are so excited about the meals and all the love you put into them!
Presenting our Kitchen Of The Month: Mountain Home Junior High
This team of BOMB cooks was pulled together over the summer and at the beginning of the year. They have shown marked growth in numbers served daily as well as a shrinkage in cost of goods. They were our first kitchen to introduce self-serve for our students and have consistently topped daily A'la Carte sales. If you ever visit this kitchen, you will find the epitome of a team/family atmosphere. They genuinely care about serving our Bombers the best cooked and best tasting food while staying within stringent government regulations. Mr. Merry, our food service supervisor, noted a quote from one of the teachers at MHJH to describe what they do daily: "the food here is like what I would make at home, but I'm getting to enjoy it at school."
Great job, JH kitchen!
Some local friends have sponsored Dial A Santa again this year. Tomorrow evening (Friday, December 15) from 5:30-8:00 p.m. your kids can call Santa at 425-6282!
Holiday break begins on Wednesday, December 20 at 1 p.m. Classes resume on Thursday, January 4.
Mia Williams and Kylie Andrews participated in the FCCLA District 2 STAR Events Competition in Heber Springs on December 1st. They placed 1st in the Food Innovations Event, winning a silver medal. Mia and Kylie will move on to the state competition in March. Congratulations to these awesome students!
The high school FCCLA officers and middle school FCCLA attended the FCCLA Fall Leadership Conference Thursday. There were FCCLA organizations from the three regions in northern Arkansas. Shelby Sisney, high school FCCLA co- president, served as our voting delegate in the district and state election process. MHHS FCCLA had a great day with the Pinkston Middle School FCCLA Chapter.
So proud of our Bomber Choir and our Thespians for their fabulous entertainment during this year's Madrigal Feaste! So much work and preparation went into this awesome event!
