The original posting had the wrong date. There is no school today, January 19th. It's a combination of fat fingers and poor eyesight! My apologies! -Mr. Denning
There will be no school today (January 19) in Mount Vernon. A decision on the games in the Corn Palace will be made later.
Due to blowing snow and problematic temperatures, Mount Vernon will be having a 9:30 start tomorrow, January 19, 2024. Buses will run as normal. Pickup time at the 4h grounds will be from 8:50-9:00.
For their formal research paper in English class, the juniors are exploring different career options that fit their individual goals and interests. They will compare and contrast the different careers' salaries, work environments, school requirements, advantages, disadvantages, and everything in-between. Finally, they will then present their chosen careers to the class. Mrs. Caery hopes that this assignment helps prepare them more for life outside of high school!
Due to deteriorating weather conditions, the Mount Vernon School will be dismissing today, January 18th at 1:00. All activities are cancelled for tonight. Dropoff at the 4H grounds will be at approximately 1:15. Stay safe!
I had donuts with some amazing student leaders this morning. Keep up the good work.

The Mount Vernon one act play placed third, or as alternate for state competition in the case of a school backing out. Superior rankings were awarded to Sabrina Strand, Hagan Tlam, and Celina Trisco. So proud of these guys!



2nd grade's science activity was to imagine they were stranded on a tropical island with nothing to protect them from the sun other than the lunch bag they packed. The task was to create a hat that would protect them yet be as resistant to water as possible. How'd they do?

Double header tonight in Plankinton, as the Titans will host the Redfield Pheasants. Girls JV will start at 4pm and we will be on a rolling schedule. Check out MVP Titans Live on YouTube for live streaming. Go Titans!

Today in Plankinton: 4:00 girls JV, 5:00 boys JV, followed by girls varsity and boys varsity. Due to low numbers, we are only playing three quarters in the boys JV. With a rolling schedule, this means that we most likely start the girls varsity game fairly close to 6:00.
Leading ladies Update!
