School Choice is the program authorized by the Arkansas General Assembly in The Public School Choice Act of 2015, which allows parents to apply for their child’s admission to participating school districts other than the one in which they reside. The Mountainburg Public School District will accept eligible students from other school districts under the School Choice program during the 2024-25 school year.

Through the Career Readiness course, the seniors have been preparing for mock interviews. Each senior has a mock interview set up for February 7 or February 14. We are blessed with community leaders who are willing to come on campus to assisst with this project.

On Thursday, February 1, the seniors watched two classmates, Warren Watkins and Cassidy Turner, be interviewed by Mrs. Tina Hart, HR Manager with International Paper. Mrs. Hart also provided the seniors with valuable information on completing a job application and preparing for an interview. Susan Krafft, Executive Director, Babb Center for Career Services at UAFS, has been on campus twice to assist the seniors in preparing their resume along with preparing for an interview.
