"A good teacher can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instill a love of learning." - Brad Henry
This week, we honor the incredible dedication, hard work, and heart that our teachers pour into every lesson, every student, and every moment, both in and out of the classroom, here on The Hill.
To our amazing educators: THANK YOU for your passion, patience, and the countless ways you make a difference every day. You are truly appreciated! 🐻🍎
Congratulations to the Class of 2025! We are so proud of you. 💙
As the school year draws to a close, we want to share important information about the Summer Electronic Benefit Transfer (Summer EBT) program, which provides a $120 benefit per eligible child to assist families in purchasing nutritious food during the summer.
Program Overview:
* Benefit Amount: $120 per eligible child.
* Purpose: To ensure children receive adequate nutrition during the summer break.
Eligibility and Application Process:
* Automatic Eligibility: Families currently participating in SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) may automatically receive the Summer EBT benefit. They will receive a letter stating they will receive the benefit and do not need to apply.
Application Required: Families not automatically enrolled are encouraged to apply to determine their eligibility. To apply or check eligibility status, families should visit the DHS website at ar.gov/summerebt. The website provides detailed instructions and the necessary forms to complete the application process.
***If the student received benefits last summer, the funds will be put on last year’s card. If you no longer have that card call the EBT Line at 1-800-997-9999 for a replacement card***
Parents:
This is a reminder that athletic physicals will take place Thursday, May 8th, beginning at 8:00 AM. Students will need to have their physical paperwork filled out and in hand that morning in order to obtain their free physical. Thank you!
We couldn't let today go by without recognizing our amazing principal staff. Mr. Bennett and Mr. Small are passionate about student success, and seeing everyone achieve.
Bear Nation says THANK YOU! 💙🐻
Due to the threat of inclement weather tomorrow, we are moving the high school testing rewards day at the park to Monday. Tomorrow will be a regular school day for students to finish up work and review for semester tests.
Thank you to Rep. Trey Steimel for stopping by today to give challenge coins to those who served as House Pages earlier in the year!
Don't forget about Decision Day coming up on Monday at 1:30 in the Multi-Purpose building! We're so excited to celebrate our seniors.
Lyliann Cochran is today's senior spotlight!
Attention Mammoth Spring High School Students! ATLAS testing begins TOMORROW.
Please remember a few things:
- Attendance is extremely important. Be at school on time and ready to go.
- Get a good night’s rest this week
- Either eat breakfast at home or school before testing begins
Good luck, Bears!
The countdown to Summer Break is here!
The Mammoth Spring Elementary School held an assembly to kick off our state testing. We shared the "Game Plan" with the students and had some fun!! The staff and students held a friendly little competition to see who could make it through the hula hoops the fastest! The students came out the winners! Some of our staff also posed as coaches and cheerleaders to lead with excitement and encouragement, and Bluey made a special appearance! We want to say a huge thank you to all of the students, staff, and parents for the roles each of you have played. There has been a slight change to our testing schedule as Monday, April 28th will now be our last day of state testing at the elementary school. Everyone has worked so hard, and all the parental support is very much appreciated. Go Bears!!
