Big shout out to our MHJH students and staff! Each year students across Arkansas participate in NWEA testing. This is a norm-referenced test that shows a student's academic growth longitudinally from Kindergarten through 12th grade. This test is given three times a year. This year after our MHJH math students took their beginning of year tests, they were scoring above the national average. In 8th grade, our students were testing 2.6 points above, while our 9th grade students were testing 6 points above the national average. After our middle of year testing, we are excited to report that our students are growing well above the national average of students in the same age and grade levels. Our 8th grade students are now 4.4 points above the national average, and our 9th graders are testing 9 points above! This is incredible growth for our students! Well done MHJH teachers and students! Your hard work is paying off!

Bomber families, At my house this afternoon we’re watching every weather report we can find, and I imagine many of you are as well. There are no roads to drive or parking lots to scrape right now. We’re just in a holding pattern at the moment. I know that’s not a great answer for any of you, but that is where we are. I want you to know that — as it is on any regularly-scheduled school day — our goal is to be in session tomorrow. However, the reality is that we may need to cancel. If we do, I plan to let you know by 5 in the morning. At this time, our families are in a position where we have to hope for the best but prepare for the worst by making alternate plans for childcare, etc. if school is cancelled. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Mrs. Dewey
