The Mammoth Spring School District's November Board Meeting will be held Thursday, November 19, 2020, at 6:30 pm in the cafeteria.
Elementary parents:
We are having a lot of issues with students forgetting their water bottles at home. Please remind your child of the importance of bringing their water bottle to school each day. Our water fountains are turned off and the bottle fillers are all we are using at this time.
The Mammoth Spring High School EAST Program will be taking names for the Backpack Program. The Backpack Program provides extra food for students with food insecurity at home. Forms will be sent home for students in grades PK-6. These forms will be due back no later than Monday, November 9. The first round of backpacks will be sent home with students Tuesday, November 10. Forms will not be sent home with high school students at this time. If you have a student in the high school that would like to participate in the program, please call Ms. Sara in the elementary office.
The cheerleaders still have a limited amount of Bears masks for sale. They are $10 each. Please contact the elementary office if you are interested in purchasing a mask.
Bears and Lady Bears have added a game Friday night @ Rose Bud at 4:30. Game order will be JG,SG,SB. Ticket information will be released as soon as it is available.

Elementary classes will be having their Halloween parties on Friday, October 30. Unfortunately, parents will not be allowed to attend and outside treats/snacks will not be allowed this year. We will be providing goodie bags for each of our students. We know so many parents look forward to these events every year and we wish you could be with us. Thank you for your continued efforts to keep our students safe and healthy!
Next week is Homecoming/Red Ribbon Week! Please find the schedule for the dress up days below. They are the same for high school and elementary, except for Wednesday (class color day).
MSHS will have a "Virtual Day" on Friday, October 23rd. Parents may choose to send their children to school or keep them at home that day. All teachers will be "on campus" to assist students the entire day. Going "virtual" for one day allows students to practice working independently on their Google Classroom assignments for that day and communicating with their teachers via email or online meetings. This experience also provides the opportunity for students and teachers to identify problems, glitches, and obstacles that may arise if MSHS does "go virtual" for any reason. Again, parents may choose to send their children to school on Friday the 23rd or let them remain at home. In either event, students will participate in their full day of scheduled learning activities in the classroom or at home.
Grades K-12 will be having a "virtual day" on Friday, October 23 to test our virtual learning platform in the students' home environment. During this virtual day, students are not required to be present in the building. They will instead do their assignments from home. However, if your children need to come to school, buses will be running and meals will be served. Preschool will remain on their normal schedule, as they do not have a virtual option. If you do not have internet access at home, please call 870-625-7213 to notify the school no later than Wednesday, October 21. This will allow us plenty of time to make the appropriate accommodations for those students with no internet access.
Monday night's basketball games with Calico Rock have been cancelled.
As of tomorrow, the breakfast menu is subject to change. We will try to update the app and website with any changes as soon as we can. Thank you!
