MHPS School Counselors are in Hot Springs at the ArSCA Counselor Conference this week. They're learning fantastic things to bring back to students and staff!
The Arkansas "Bell to Bell, No Cell Act" mandates a phone-free learning environment in all public schools, starting with the 2025-2026 school year. This means students must keep personal electronic devices like cell phones, smartwatches, tablets, and laptops turned off and put away from the first bell to the last bell of the school day.
Congratulations to the 25 educators in our district who will receive merit incentive funds this year from the Division of Elementary and Secondary Education!
According to DESE’s website, the LEARNS Act (Act 237 of the 2023 Regular Session) established the Merit Teacher Incentive Fund Program, also known as Merit Pay, to recognize and reward Arkansas's outstanding educators. The program's primary goals are to retain high-performing teachers in classrooms across the state and enhance teacher recruitment and retention in priority (e.g., mentors) and critical shortage areas.
Each of the educators who has received merit pay qualified in at least one of the following areas:
• Demonstrate outstanding growth in student performance;
• Are employed in subject, geographic, and other critical shortage areas
• Serve as a mentor to aspiring teachers participating in yearlong residencies.
This is a major accomplishment, and we're so proud of our educators for committing to excellence in education -- every student, every time.
We did it! This was a year full of learning, growing, trials, and successes. We love our Bombers, and while we're excited for summer, we'll be ready for smiling faces on August 12! Have a wonderful, safe break!
We sure are going to miss our retirees! What a wonderful group of educators and support staff!
In Mrs. Kohler and Mrs. Thompson’s third grade classrooms, they celebrated watermelon day!! They tasted fresh watermelon and other watermelon-flavored treats while taking a poll of what was everyone’s favorite. They analyzed their data, identified the favorite, and read about the life cycle! They even counted and saw how many rubber bands it took to explode a watermelon! It was a “sweet” and fun day!
After reading the book "Unplugged" as a whole school project, the students at Hackler participated in a Zoom meeting with the author, Gordon Korman, this morning. Students were allowed to ask questions and really enjoyed connecting with a real author!
Join us for the Flame of Hope!
