The Husky Herald

We had our first 3–5 morning assembly, and it was a great way to celebrate our Huskies! We recognized students who were nominated for being school ready and demonstrating what it means to come to school prepared to learn and succeed. We also added some fun to the assembly with a donut-eating game that was a blast! I’m proud of our students for showing what it means to be ready to learn and live out our One Pack, One Purpose theme. Way to go, Huskies!

We are excited to invite you to Curriculum Night on Tuesday, October 20 from 5:00–6:30 PM. Families will have the opportunity to meet teachers, explore classrooms, and preview the curriculum for the year. We hope you can join us for this important evening of connection and learning!

Our next early release day will be Friday, October 23. Students will attend school from 8:30 AM– 12:30 PM. Early release days provide time for our staff to participate in additional professional development to support student learning. You can view the full district calendar here: District Calendar.

Mt. Vernon's Annual Spaghetti Dinner is on Thursday, October 29, from 5:30–7:00 PM Join us for a free dinner and a chance to connect with fellow Mt. Vernon families and community members!

This event is hosted by our PBIS Team, and it’s a great opportunity to learn more about how PBIS supports positive behavior and success for all students.

We hope to see you there for good food, great company, and community fun!

Get ready for one of our favorite school traditions — The Husky Run! The big day is coming up Friday, October 30, and we can’t wait to cheer on our Huskies.

The event will happen rain or shine! If the weather doesn’t cooperate, we’ll move the fun indoors with students running in the gym and under the covered area. If you are volunteering for the event, please come to the front office to check in and receive your name tag.
