November has been packed with learning, fun, and plenty of Warhawk pride.
Third grade has been exploring forces and discovering what happens when they’re balanced and unbalanced. Students experimented with magnets to see how they attract and repel, learned how gravity always pulls toward Earth’s center, and tried out magnet tricks that only work when everything lines up just right. Their curiosity has been on full display.
And that’s just the beginning. From homecoming celebrations to Flight Fuel field trips, teddy bear clinics, UAMS Find Your Futures, sugar babies, and growing vegetables (and growing minds), our Warhawks have stayed busy in the very best ways.
Our 5th and 6th graders also participated in the Shiloh Museum of Ozark History’s 2025 Native American History and Cultures in Arkansas program. Students made crafts, pottery, and twining projects, created their own pouches, and each received an arrowhead to take home.
Career fairs, Thanksgiving lunches, and special activities filled every corner of the district with excitement. High school students wrapped up the month with a Gaming Reward Day that brought lots of laughs and well-earned downtime.
We were also excited to receive an Arkansas Securities Department grant that will help us purchase new equipment and continue expanding opportunities for our students. Innovation is growing right alongside them.
Our elementary Thanksgiving lunch brought families together for a warm, joyful meal that filled the cafeteria with smiles, conversation, and a whole lot of gratitude. It was a reminder of the Family that makes MVE special.
The month even brought a couple of surprises. Modern gun season had plenty of students (and staff) trading stories, early mornings, and big hopes. And as if November wasn’t exciting enough, the Northern Lights made a rare appearance in Arkansas. Our Warhawks lit up social media with photos of the sky glowing in shades no one expected to see here at home.
Another big highlight: our Elementary Student Voice Team led a food drive for the community blessing boxes. Thanks to their leadership and the generosity of our families, the elementary collected and donated more than 700 items. The boxes are now stocked with full Thanksgiving meals and so much more. This is Integrity, Innovation, Achievement, and Family in action.
We’ve added tons of updated photos from across the district.

Today we celebrate Substitute Professional's Day — honoring the incredible individuals who step in, adapt, and keep learning moving forward when our teachers can’t be in the classroom.
Our substitutes are flexible, dependable, and dedicated, often stepping in at a moment’s notice to ensure our students continue to learn and grow. You are an essential part of the Warhawk family, and we are so grateful for your service, patience, and heart for education.
Thank you for making a difference in our students’ lives each and every time you walk through our doors.

With the expanded program, students will dive deeper into real-world financial literacy. According to the Arkansas Securities Department, understanding money early puts young people on the road to long-term financial success. They’ll learn how time works to their advantage, how saving even a few dollars a week adds up, and how smart decisions today can help them reach goals like college, a first car, a home, and even retirement someday.
They’ll also learn how to build an emergency fund, make informed choices, create their own financial plans, and avoid a limited lifestyle by putting savings first. These are real skills with real power.
This is Integrity, Innovation, Achievement, and Family in action… and we can’t wait to see what our Warhawks create next.

Mrs. Ross truly demonstrates our core values of Integrity, Innovation, Achievement, and Family, and we couldn’t be more proud of her accomplishments.

It's Teacher Tuesday! Let's get to know the wonderful Crystal Mills! 🌟
Crystal is inspired by watching her students grow up and become responsible young adults.
If she could instantly master any skill, it would be to learn other languages so she could travel internationally without a language barrier. This would certainly help her on her dream vacation: spending a month in a hut on the water in Bora Bora! 🌴
To lift her spirits, Crystal turns to the movie "Facing the Giants."
A true "water bug," her favorite way to spend a break is anywhere she can be on a boat, kayak, or floating in the water, working on her tan. Her students might be surprised to learn that many moons ago she was a cheerleader and a certified swim instructor!
Crystal's advice that she lives by is: "Life is going to constantly throw you curveballs, it's important to try to stay positive and persevere and never give up!"
#FlightoftheWarhawk

At MVE, kindness is part of who we are. Whether it’s a smile in the hallway, a helping hand in the classroom, or a word of encouragement to a teammate, these moments make our schools stronger and our community brighter.
Let’s take today to be intentional with our kindness — to lift each other up, celebrate our differences, and spread joy in ways that inspire others to do the same. Together, we can make kindness the norm, not the exception.
#FlightoftheWarhawk
Our Warhawks will take on the Marshall Bobcats, and we can’t wait to see that Warhawk spirit shining bright! 🎉 Don’t forget to check out the concession stand for a great meal while you enjoy the game.

Get ready for a weekend full of memories, music, and Warhawk pride! 💙 #FlightoftheWarhawk
Student safety is always a top priority at MVE. Thank you for your continued trust in our district and for respecting our students’ privacy. #FlightoftheWarhawk
Her dream vacation spot is Alamosa, Colorado, where you can hike in sand dunes and snow on the same day! 🏔️
Catherine says she loves being a Warhawk because, even though she grew up in Conway, she has so many friends and family in the Mt. Vernon-Enola area that it feels like home. 💙
When she’s not teaching or gardening, you can find her singing hymns at church — she loves the figurative language and symbolism in them. 🎶
We’re so thankful to have Catherine as part of our MVE family!
#FlightoftheWarhawk
