MVES - UofA Arkansas Reads Day - Kindergarten
MVES - UofA Arkansas Reads Day - Chancellor Robinson and Dr. McCray reading to 1st and 2nd grade.
MVES - April has been a busy month!! We started out the month with a visit from the University of Arkansas as Mountain View Elementary was chosen by the Office of Nationally Competitive Awards for the Arkansas Reads Program. The recent visit from Chancellor Charles Robinson, Dr. Suzanne McCray, and the UofA team was a moment of inspiration for MVES.
We are deeply grateful for the generous donation of over 8,000 books, as well as the much-appreciated Expo markers for our teachers! Our students were gifted with commemorative t-shirts. These gifts will make a lasting impact on our students and in our classrooms. Our students continue to prove they can Beat the Odds!
MVES - Mountain View Elementary will be administering the ATLAS Summative Test in grades K-4 over the next two weeks, starting Monday, April 14. We will only test one subject per day for two days each week per grade level. Please reference the schedule attached. Your child will be bringing home a copy of the schedule today. We thank you for your continued support in your child's education!
MVES - This is a reminder that all tutoring has been cancelled at Mountain View Elementary School for Wednesday, April 2. Students will be sent home to their regular stop. Please contact the school if you need to change their destination for this afternoon.
MVES - We want to thank our parents for coming to Parent-Teacher Conferences on Thursday, March 20. We can't do this without you!
We also appreciate the Sonic drinks given to us by MVMS Student Council. You guys knew just what we needed to get through the long day! Thank you!
We hope everyone has a wonderful Spring Break this week!
MVES - Mountain View Elementary School has been recognized by the Office for Education Policy (OEP) at the University of Arkansas as a school that is Beating the Odds by receiving the High Math Growth (Northeast region) award. This award was earned by MVES students, who demonstrated significant growth in math on the Arkansas Testing, Learning, & Assessment System (ATLAS) exams, even though the school serves a high percentage of students who participate in the Free and Reduced Lunch program.
This award is a testament of our students' hard work, our teachers' dedication, and our parents' support. We appreciate each of you and give you all the honor in this award!
MVES - In Ms. Blake's class, students built rockets in science and then launched into a math challenge to measure how far they flew.🚀
MVES - We've had Book Fair this week and we are open this evening at Parent-Teacher Conferences until 7:00 p.m. We appreciate everyone who supported our library through this fundraiser. We also appreciate Ms. Ankeney and our Save the Children program who ensured every child left the library with a new book even if they did not bring money for the book fair. Thank you!!!
MVES - Mrs. Ragsdale's 2nd grade class practiced measuring in inches with a fun build your own bug craft 🐛
MVES - Mrs. Gammill’s first graders celebrated St. Patrick’s day with a walking rainbow 🌈, a lucky 🍀 snack, and a directed drawing of Lucky the Leprechaun! ☘️
MVES - Today, third grade celebrated a new lunch time known as IReady Lunch for students who completed and passed a full sheet of 20 IReady lessons. Their reward was to share lunch and a movie with two friends and their teachers!! Great job, third grade!!
MVES - Happy Tooth visited with our kindergartners and first graders today to discuss good dental hygiene. We appreciate Isbell Family Dentistry and the three generations of Dr. Isbells (two of whom are former MVES students) for teaching us about proper dental practices!
MVES - We had a little leprechaun treating our teachers the past few days as they had to search for the "pot of gold" each day to receive a "treasure"! Thank you, Mrs. Jennifer Hinston and little Aurora for treating our teachers to a treasure hunt and goodies for all! You are both a treasure at the end of the rainbow!
MVES - It's Book Fair Week! We will be open during Parent-Teacher Conferences on Thursday, March 20, from 3:00 to 7:00 p.m. Looking forward to seeing you!

MVES - What better way to end a PJ Friday than turn it to a Truffula Tree Fri-Yay as our fourth graders did to end Read Across America Week.
MVES - Mrs. Turner's second graders learned about chemical reactions as they mixed different ingredients to make bouncy balls that actually bounced! Students measured various ingredients, mixed concoctions that were easy to stir and some that were more challenging. As you can see, everyone had an all-around fun time!
