It's Teacher Tuesday, so say hello to our amazing 2nd grade teacher, Samantha Patterson! She’s inspired every day by watching her former students grow up and do big things — the kind of moments that remind her why she loves teaching. 💙
When she’s not in the classroom, you can usually find her enjoying Mexican food after a long day 🌮 or recharging on a quiet hike where she can unplug and reset. 🥾✨
We’re so thankful to have Mrs. Patterson as part of our Warhawk Family. She brings heart, dedication, and a whole lot of joy to our school. #FlightoftheWarhawk

December was full of activity, creativity, and holiday cheer across Mt. Vernon-Enola School District. Our students and staff packed this month with hands-on learning, service projects, celebrations, and a few surprises along the way. Here’s a look back at some of the highlights.
At MVE High School, students explored careers in healthcare, construction, manufacturing, and lineman technology. Classes traveled to First Electric and Nabholz, seniors visited with Blackstone Construction, and our Warhawks put their problem-solving skills to the test during a cybersecurity escape room challenge. We also saw creative engineering in action as physical science students designed cars to protect an egg during a crash. Add in WWII plane builds, Christmas card outreach, the band concert, Financial Aid Night, and the spirited Warhawk Pom-Pom Pursuit — it was a full and memorable month.
Our MVE Elementary students were just as busy. From sleigh rides in PE and STEM adventures to dress-up days, Christmas parties, and elf visits, our younger Warhawks brought plenty of joy to campus. The Christmas program filled the auditorium, classrooms celebrated big, and our District Christmas Breakfast brought everyone together to wrap up the year with warmth and community.

Teacher Tuesday spotlight: Morgan Cox 🎉
Morgan Cox is inspired every day by her students ❤️. She loves them BIG, and not a day goes by that she isn’t humbled or learning something from them. Some of the best lessons about people and life have come from the little people in her life 🌟.
Her advice for students: the test isn’t everything… but developing the discipline to be ready for it, is 📝💪.
After 31 years, her advice for teachers: "No significant learning occurs without a significant relationship." ~Dr. James Comer. Take the time to learn who your students truly are, beyond family, sports, or hobbies. When students believe in you, trust you, and feel a connection, they will work harder than ever ✨.
What she loves most about being part of the Warhawk family is how we make sure no student falls through the cracks. Everyone communicates, supports, and cares for kids academically, socially, and emotionally 🤝.
We’re proud to have Morgan Cox shaping the Warhawk family #FlightoftheWarhawk

Teacher Tuesday spotlight: LaDawn Ross 🎉
LaDawn Ross brings curiosity, adventure, and a love of learning to everything she does — especially in the classroom 📚✨
If she could instantly master any skill, it would be playing the piano 🎹, something she’s always wanted to learn and is actively working on.
When she’s not teaching, LaDawn dreams of visiting the Galápagos Islands 🐢🌊 to snorkel and swim with turtles. Travel is a big part of her life ✈️ — whether it’s a road trip with friends 🚗, a week at the beach 🏖️, or discovering new places on her long “to-visit” list 🗺️.
What inspires her most as a teacher is seeing her students’ confidence grow 💡🙌. She loves learning herself and seeing her students realize they can learn anything 🌟.
Her advice for students — and a little reminder for herself: explore the world when you can 🌍 and learn something new every day 📖. Life is too interesting not to.
We’re proud to have Mrs. Ross shaping the Warhawk family #FlightoftheWarhawk

It’s Teacher Tuesday, and today we’re shining a spotlight on Ashton Millwood! Ashton loves seeing her students grow, both in their learning and as people. Watching that progress is what keeps her inspired every day.
If she could instantly master any skill, it would be sign language. Ashton says being able to communicate with everyone, no matter how they experience the world, would be an incredible way to make sure no one feels left out.
After a long day, you’ll find her enjoying a little comfort in the form of Nutella toast. When she dreams of travel, Ashton wants to go to South Korea to visit her family and connect with her roots. And when she needs a little boost, she sings the 100 digits of pi song — because math can be fun and uplifting!
If teaching wasn’t her path, Ashton would be diving into advanced mathematics, exploring new ways to challenge herself and others.
Ashton Millwood is a valued member of the Warhawk family, bringing dedication, creativity, and heart to everything she does and inspiring students to do their best every day.
