Third graders practicing graphing with M&M’s today.


The 8th grade students are collecting data to observe what happens to temperature changes during a phase change. Later they will be graphing and analyzing the data to develop their understanding of temperature, state, and energy.


We earn letters in 2nd grade for the word, "BALLOON" when we have good class behavior. Today, they finally got to pop a balloon from our bulletin board. Each balloon is filled with a classroom party idea. Today, they popped, "Lights Out Day!" which we will celebrate next week!



The freshmen were studiously working on their test over Geographic terms this morning.


Mr. Helling's class is learning about earthquakes and tornadoes. The students shared their Venn diagrams about the similarities and differences between the two natural disasters.




Preschool has been learning about the letter C this week. We made name caterpillars, read the book The Very Hungry Caterpillar and made crowns to go along with it!


Congrats Mrs. VanZee! She is honored to receive an Unsung Hero Award from @Voya. The money will purchase Science of Reading activities for phonological awareness, word work, decoding strategies, and school-home literacy kits. Excited to have these materials! #VoyaUnsungHeroes


Congratulations to Daniel, Sabrina, Hagan, and Katelynn. They will be representing Mt. Vernon School at this years All-State Chorus and Orchestra performance October 29th in Sioux Falls.


Just an FYI here - Lennox rolls their schedule on game nights. If the pre-varsity matches go fast, the varsity match could start a little earlier than normal. Redfield did the same thing and the varsity match was started by 7:00.

In 7th grade social studies we just finished a unit on the 5 themes of geography. To help students better understand the themes, maps, globes and physical features, each student constructed an interactive notebook.



Good luck to the volleyball team tonight as they travel Lennox. Go Titans!


The Lost and Found Saga of 2022 has begun...... Please take a look at these items and have your child claim if theirs. Yes - that is an unopened bottle of Starbucks Frappuccino that has not been claimed since the first day of school.
