Mountain View Elementary School

MVES - Happy Graduation Day to MVHS Class of 2023! It seems like yesterday you were in elementary and now, here you are graduates! We wish you the best! 🎓

MVES - We finished out Teacher Appreciation Week with a 25% coupon from Sasquatch Cave. We also received some delicious cupcakes from Sugar Booger (aka our own Leah White) this morning and strawberries and cookies from sweet Rayleigh Clark yesterday. So many kind gestures and words were extended to our teachers this week. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

MVES - Our students were able to spend time learning about Stone County at the Stone County Museum. As Stone County celebrates 150 years, it is heartwarming to see our future meet our past.

MVES- Teacher Appreciation Week continues at Mountain View Elementary!! This morning we held a Teacher Parade to showcase all of our wonderful teachers. We also want to extend a thank you to our local Mountain View Wal-Mart for the donuts & cookies this morning and to Mrs. Jennifer Hinston, Pure International Classy Ms. South Central Arkansas, along with the little Gammill's, for our Mexican luncheon!! “Tell me and I forget, teach me and I remember, involve me and I learn.” —Benjamin Franklin

MVES - It was a "Tea-rrific" Tuesday at Mountain View Elementary. Thank you, Achieve Nutrition, for the FREE tea coupons for our teachers!! That was a great start to their day! “A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops.” —Henry Brooks Adams

MVES - Students explored how solid rock breaks apart into smaller pieces through weathering. In the activity, they used sugar cubes as a model for rocks. They performed an experiment with this model to understand the process of weathering and how this process explains why rocks at the tops of mountains are jagged, while those at the bottom are rounded.

MVES - It's Teacher Appreciation Week! We would like to thank Centennial Bank for providing pizza and First Baptist Church for providing sodas and water for our teachers' lunch today. "A good education can change anyone. A good teacher can change everything." Unknown

MVES - Quotes from the teachers about Fourth Grade Field Day: "Fourth Grade Field Day was a blast!" "The kids had a blast!" "It was SO much fun!" Thankful for our teachers who make these days possible for our students!

MVES - Fourth Grade Field Day was the best day!

MVES - 4th graders explore the process of weathering using sugar cubes. We may have some future meteorologists!

MVES - If you don't have a "Joy of Testing," then we highly recommend you get one as soon as possible!! (You just can't have ours!!) Wherever she and her blue hair go, there are sure to be smiles...even on test days!! No need to be blue about testing with Joy around!!

MVES - A special thank you to Samuel Greenhaw and Dayton Burns from MVHS East who filmed the talent show.

MVES - Our fourth graders showed off their skills of playing our new ukuleles in "MV's Got Talent." We would like to thank Mountain View Music for allowing us to purchase the ukuleles at cost and to Centennial Bank for donating the cost of $2,359.48 for a complete class set. What a wonderful addition to our music class!
