It's a wrap! Third grade has completed the study of Asia. Students brought items that demonstrated the culture of the studied region. They enjoy the hands-on days, sharing knowledge with classmates.
Attention Cheerleaders!
Coach Martin and Coach Schmidt would like to remind you that there is NO cheerleading practice this evening!

We can't wait to see you at our Christmas Program this evening!
Kindergarten made frog puppets this morning. We are enjoying our fun Friday.
Just a reminder for families with students in grades 1-12: If your student was chosen by their teacher (they would have communicated with you about this) to represent MHCA in the Christmas parade tonight, they need to be dressed warmly and arrive at Regional Family Medicine Clinic by 5:30pm. Shepherd costumes will be provided. At the end of the parade, we will use the MHCA school van to transport students back to Regional Family Medicine for pickup. Thank You!
Also, if you are a parent of one of our student representatives and you'd be willing to walk with the float in the parade tonight, we could use a couple parents to help oversee. Please reach out to our volunteer coordinator Michelle Lindquist at 870-421-1719 if you can help. You will receive a family service hour for your time.
Fifth graders learned how tricky it can be to separate a mixture into its individual parts in science. A mixture of sand, sugar, iron filings and rice provided a big challenge. Tweezers, magnets, cheese cloth and water were all utilized to separate parts.
Christmas is coming!
Just a reminder, school is in session tomorrow, Friday, December 06 at MHCA.
Here's a few of our current needs at the school. Thank you for considering purchasing an item. We appreciate the generosity of this great community!

Internship students took turns "grilling" each other with interview questions, as they prepared for live interviews with Internship Business Partners, the weeks of 11/11 & 11/18/24. All students performed very well in their live business interviews, learning valuable interview techniques that they can take with them as they transition into the labor force.
Our seniors got together before Thanksgiving and provided a meal to a family through the Serenity House.
The weather may be crisp, but that won't stop us from having a good time! First grade loves the cooler weather and we are making the most of these clear sky days ❤️
Building trust was the name of the game in fifth grade during counseling class today with Mrs. DeWeese.
Central Baptist College representatives Ryan Guyton and Austin Gray visited with MHCA Juniors and Seniors today, to provide them with general college information and all the opportunities available to students who attend CBC. The session was very informative for the students and opened doors that they did not know were available. Both Ryan and Austin are Personal Admissions Officers with CBC and Ryan also acts as the Assistant Baseball Coach for the college. Everyone greatly enjoyed their presentation and would like to say thank you for the time and effort they gave to MHCA students.
