Dragon Weekly

For anyone who works in a public school, making sure information is made available to parents and patrons in the district is key. Effective communication is vital for academics and activities taking place.

We have upgraded the district website - www.mountainburg.org, and we have updated the app. We also recognize that most information is going to be received on a cell phone. So, as the slogan says "It's all things Mountainburg, in your pocket", take a minute to download the district app through your app store.

Dr. Atwell shared the district's vision for new facilities and upgrades to current facilities in a newsletter. Here is a link to the newsletter: https://www.smore.com/49drg

The following public meetings will be held to share information about the millage election and the proposed facilities projects. Please attend, and encourage students, parents, and community members to attend.
