Last week, two groups of sophomores stopped by NWH to earn some community service hours. The students helped sort through games and materials in the old Parent Center to help make room for a new STEM/Makerspace Lab. Miss Rayburn, the K-2 GATE teacher, cannot say enough how thankful she is for the great work done in only two hours by these hardworking students! Thanks for giving back to our little Bombers!

Mountain Home Junior High staff collaborated to create a cross-curricular unit based on the novel “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.” Students acted out one of the scenes in the book: whitewashing a fence the way Tom did. Science classes made posters about the medicinal remedies that would have been used in that time period. Art students created grave stones as a way to bring the book’s graveyard scene to life. Business classes calculated how much the boo’s “treasure” would have been worth today. Arkansas History classes researched the area where the book was based, and American History students created poster displays as a final project. The unit was topped off with a trip to Blanchard Springs Caverns, which gave the students an experience similar to the cave scene in the book. We are so proud of the hard work of both students and staff on this project!

Academy Reps came to Pinkston and presented on the different academies at the high school, explained the career options in each, and presented on the organizations students can join. As always, Pinkston students enjoyed getting to meet the reps and appreciated all the information they presented.
February's FSB leadership award winner was James Breedlove. Here is why he was selected as the winner for the month:
"James is always smiling and has a positive attitude when he comes to class. It doesn't matter how much work we have to do or how hard it is, he is always ready to work. James finishes his work, asks what else he can do when he is done and often spends his extra class time helping others around him that do not understand. James is an amazing young man and deserves this award."
Congratulations to James and big thanks to First Security Bank for this kind gesture each month!
Thanks to Mrs. Benton, our special education director, for coordinating this event and sharing with KTLO! We hope to see our parents of students with special needs tomorrow evening!

AP Language Food Truck Rhetoric Challenge!
Mrs. Drewry’s AP English Language students took their rhetorical analysis skills to the next level with an exciting Food Truck Project!
After diving deep into MLK’s Letter from Birmingham Jail and analyzing his powerful rhetorical choices, students put their persuasion skills to the test—this time with food!
Each of the 23 groups crafted a food truck concept complete with a name, slogan, menu, and one delicious sample item for the judges to taste. From ethos-infused entrees to pathos-packed presentations, these students served up both flavor and rhetoric in an unforgettable way!
