Today, we celebrate our incredible School Resource Officers for their dedication, protection, and mentorship! Thank you for keeping our schools safe and making a difference every day! 💙🚔

MVES 4th and 5th Grade GATE Students spent the day working with student leaders from the Rockcastle Area Technology Center's FBLA Chapter to learn how to use Canva to create posters that were appealing and informative. MVES students used these skills to create Attendance Posters for their STLP Project. A huge shoutout to these RATC Student Leaders!!

✨🏰 Preschool just finished their unit on Fairy Tales.🏰✨
This is always such a fun, creative, and exciting unit! Fairy tales ignite creativity and impart valuable moral lessons. They serve as examples of behavior for children, offering a framework for them to reflect on their own feelings and choices. Additionally, these stories support emotional resilience by allowing children to relate the narratives to their real-life experiences. Preschool ended the unit with their annual Royal Ball! We hope all of our littlest Mustangs know how much magic they bring to our lives every single day 👑🐉🧚

👑 Attention Preschool Parents 👑
The MVES Friends Royal Ball is Thursday, February 13th.

Even with the power out, the energy was still high! Students stayed safe in their rooms, creating memories with classmates—playing games, reading in the dark, and making the best of it all. Sometimes the best moments happen when you least expect them!
❤️🐴🖤

MVES Announcement 02-06-25:
Great news, Mt. Vernon families! Power has been fully restored at MVES, and our students are having a fantastic day.
Everything is back to normal, and there’s no need for early pickup. Thank you for your patience and support—we appreciate you!

MVES Announcement 02-06-25:
Our students are safe, in good spirits, and will be having lunch soon! Due to the power outage at MVES, Mt. Vernon families can pick up their students early, starting at 1 PM. If you’re unable to do so, buses will run as usual, and parent pick-up will proceed as normal.

❄️Preschool has been studying snow/ice and polar animals! They have created their own snowstorm in a jar, ice skated with friends, hibernated in bear caves, built ice castles, etc.
This is a favorite unit for our students and they have really enjoyed it.
