Our community continues to wrap around us during this season of giving! The Mountain Home Kiwanis Club of Mountain Home generously donated a $150 Walmart gift card to be used for student needs. Thank you for your kindness!

A huge thank you to one of our community partners: Basscat Boats. Their employees donated 150 Thanksgiving meal bags to Mountain Home Public Schools. Heather Curtis from Basscat is pictured here with some of our school counselors and Serenity's outreach case manager.

GATE Family Trivia Night was a tremendous success, and we look forward to hosting again!

We had 140 people who stayed and participated in trivia and more who were there before trivia started to look at student projects!

From all of Bomber Nation: Thank you for your service.

Fourth grade students got to write and share some (slightly) spooky stories on Friday while huddled around a fake campfire! What a fun way to learn and share!

October was Principal Appreciation Month, and we had staff and students share what they appreciate most about their principals in this week's Bomber Update! Have a wonderful, safe Halloween weekend!

Today's Principal Appreciation post goes out to Mrs. Kristyn Goodwin! Did you know that Mrs. Goodwin has been at Hackler since DAY 1? She was a counselor for years at HIS before becoming a Dean of Students and eventually the building Principal! Mrs. Goodwin has so many fans at Hackler that a student even asked to "twin" with her during our most recent Homecoming spirit week! Hackler is lucky to have Mrs. Goodwin leading the charge each day!
