Mountain Home Parks & Rec has some fantastic opportunities coming up!
Our Outdoor Learning courses received a generous donation of $12,700 from the Arkansas Game & Fish Commission on Saturday night at the organization's Night of Conservation in Mountain Home. Thank you so much to the Commission for your continued support of our programming and our kids!

Reminder for Families: On March 20, our Board of Education approved a calendar amendment that made May 23 a full day of school. This adjustment was made to add back a few hours to our calendar due to an early dismissal in January. Here's a link to the updated calendar showing May 23 as a full school day!

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.
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!
