Dragon Weekly

On Friday, April 18, 6 seniors were recognized for their contributions to Dragon Baseball and Lady Dragon Softball.

Parents -

Please take several minutes to complete this needs assessment.

It will provide information for the School Improvement Planning process.

Mountainburg Public Schools is initiating a strategic plan to address facility needs. To support our students and provide a high-quality learning environment, we are requesting a 3.9-mill increase, which would bring our millage rate to 47.9 mills.

This funding would allow us to build a new middle school/ high school cafeteria providing a modern, warm, safe and dry kitchen and student dining space. Voters will decide on this investment in May 2025, ensuring we can meet both current and future student needs.

There will be two public meetings:

• Thursday, May 1 at 6:00
• Tuesday, May 6 at 6:00

Please join us in the MMS/MHS Cafeteria for a Q&A, review and provide input in the preliminary designs, tour the existing cafeteria, and the new Dragon Gym & Activity Center.

The Mountainburg Public Schools Gifted and Talented (GT) Program is seeking feedback regarding the GT program. Everyone is welcome to participate. Please take a moment to fill out the survey at your convenience. If you have any questions, contact Mrs. Mihaila at amber.mihaila@mountainburg.org. The survey can be accessed below.
