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

Mrs. Dewey's December Board Update:
Bombers loved having breakfast for lunch last week! Thanks to our awesome food service department for your work! Our students are so excited about the meals and all the love you put into them!
Presenting our Kitchen Of The Month: Mountain Home Junior High
This team of BOMB cooks was pulled together over the summer and at the beginning of the year. They have shown marked growth in numbers served daily as well as a shrinkage in cost of goods. They were our first kitchen to introduce self-serve for our students and have consistently topped daily A'la Carte sales. If you ever visit this kitchen, you will find the epitome of a team/family atmosphere. They genuinely care about serving our Bombers the best cooked and best tasting food while staying within stringent government regulations. Mr. Merry, our food service supervisor, noted a quote from one of the teachers at MHJH to describe what they do daily: "the food here is like what I would make at home, but I'm getting to enjoy it at school."
Great job, JH kitchen!
Holiday break begins on Wednesday, December 20 at 1 p.m. Classes resume on Thursday, January 4.
Update: Track Striping has been moved up to today through Friday due to the possibility of weather impacts later in the week.
