After rocking their book reports and vocabulary quizzes, the freshmen are enjoying some board games. Shhh, don't tell them they're still using their brains.

"A special thank you to the students, staff and parents of MHCA who participated in the work day at Bakersfield, in the aftermath of the tornado. The love and hard work shown by this outstanding group of people was a blessing to the town and the Bakersfield Church of Christ. We couldn't have accomplished everything without you!!! Your light will continue to shine as we distribute items to the community members in need." -Jennifer Bridges
Our MHCA students had the opportunity to serve in Bakersfield, bringing help and hope to the community after the recent tornado. The student's worked hard to assist those in need, demonstrating Christ’s love through their actions. We are proud of their servant hearts and willingness to be the hands and feet of Jesus!!
Due to the work being done by the 9th through 12th graders in Bakersfield today, track and field practice has been canceled for today. Thank you.
Dear MHCA Parents,
On Monday, March 17th, our 9th-12th grade students will have the opportunity to put their faith into action by traveling to Bakersfield, MO, to assist with tornado cleanup efforts. This is more than just a service project—it is a powerful way for our students to live out the mission and vision of Mountain Home Christian Academy.
We will provide transportation and leave right after our morning assembly. Please email me at dbyrd@bakersfield.k12.mo.us or send a note giving your 9th-12th grader permission to go. Students will need to pack a sack lunch, bring work gloves, wear boots or other solid sole shoes, and wear your MHCA t-shirt. We will plan to return by 3:30. Please be in prayer for the people of Bakersfield and for our students as they prepare to serve. If you have any questions, feel free to email me at the above address.
Just a reminder, Open Enrollment closes for returning students Sunday and Late Enrollment begins. Complete those re-enrollment packets to get the best deal on your enrollment fee. Monday, MHCA begins processing new student applications and inviting students to enroll. Open enrollment is the last opportunity to ensure your student has a seat in a classroom.
Cow heart anyone?? White Coat interns discover the field of surgical technology during their internships on Tuesday, by gowning up and examining cow hearts.
Life Skills students continue their study on teamwork as they attempt to build the tallest freestanding tower out of spaghetti and marshmallows.
From @protectyoungeyes,
"Almost zero sedentary screen time for ages 0-5 is what our children need. No digital pacifiers! When they get to elementary school, almost zero technology is needed in the process of learning. Young humans need visceral, physical experiences to properly develop into adapted, resilient, emotionally intelligent young people."

If we could pick two shirts that say we are ready for Spring Break, it would be these twins!
Our 3rd grade student teacher gives examples of humility. She teaches how to break down the scripture for a better understanding of the word humility.
Our students had an opportunity to attend the Draft Day @ ASU. Grateful to live in a community with such wonderful events for our young people!
5th graders conducted a "habitat investigation" today.
All those 7th - 12th grade interested in being part of MHCA's Track & Field team this spring need to attend the meeting today, March 10, at 5:30 (immediately following the missions trip meeting).
The first practice will be Tuesday, March 11th at 5:30 p.m. at MHCA gymnasium. For questions or concerns please contact Coach Burns at (870) 421-0757.
This is the last week of open enrollment for Returning Students and the last week to guarantee a seat in a class! March 17th we began to invite new student applicants who have been approved to enroll! Get re-enrolled today!
Third grade had some unusual fun activities for our 100 day celebration. We walked, ran, licked lollypops, done sit ups, played games, and even managed to include spelling words with 100 seconds or 100 times. I'm sure we met the 100 grams of sugar without a doubt.
What do you get when you take 19 high schoolers and one creative PE teacher? You get 5 on 5 on 5 on 5 basketball! High school fun time!!!
