Mountain Home Parks & Rec has some fantastic opportunities coming up!
Our Outdoor Learning courses received a generous donation of $12,700 from the Arkansas Game & Fish Commission on Saturday night at the organization's Night of Conservation in Mountain Home. Thank you so much to the Commission for your continued support of our programming and our kids!

Reminder for Families: On March 20, our Board of Education approved a calendar amendment that made May 23 a full day of school. This adjustment was made to add back a few hours to our calendar due to an early dismissal in January. Here's a link to the updated calendar showing May 23 as a full school day!

Saturday, February 15 is National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day! According to the National Association of School Resource Officers, there are a couple important reasons we recognize these service-oriented, kind individuals each year:
- To recognize the work of SROs in keeping schools safe and building positive relationships with students, families, and communities
- To show appreciation for the valuable role SROs play in the education community
We LOVE our SROs, and we hope you'll take a moment to show your appreciation for their work as well!
