Our Culinary II students kicked things off with a soft opening this week, serving up coffee, lemonades, and teas to a few special guests before officially getting back to business!
The student-run café will be open to MHHS students and staff on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings throughout the year.
Here’s a peek at their first day back behind the counter!

Yesterday morning, we celebrated our newest White Coat students during their White Coat Ceremony at Baxter Health!

Our annual Back-to-School Convocation at Dunbar Auditorium was the perfect way to kick off a brand new school year with district staff! 💙💛
From celebrating innovation through Mountain Home Education Foundation classroom grants to getting a first look at this year's staff shirts from Arvest Bank, the morning was filled with excitement, encouragement, and plenty of Bomber pride.
A huge thank you to Mountain Home PTO for treating our staff to giveaways from Restore by King Dermatology, The Karaoke Barn, and The Pilates Studio, and for partnering with NEXT, Powered by NAEC, to provide delicious donuts and coffee from 870 Coffee Co.
Congratulations to David and Julie Hirsh, who were awarded a shopping spree courtesy of Butler Furniture!
We were inspired by keynote speaker Eli Cranor, then wrapped up the morning with an unforgettable round of Double Dare MHPS, proving once again that no one has more fun than Bomber staff!
Events like this wouldn't be possible without the support of our incredible community partners and volunteers. Thank you to Mountain Home Education Foundation, Arvest Bank, Butler Furniture, Mountain Home PTO, NEXT, Powered by NAEC, 870 Coffee Co., Spectrum Connections of Arkansas, our Mountain Home Public Schools Board of Education, and the many students and staff who helped make the day a success—including Bomber Cheer, Bomber Dance, NJROTC, Bomber Band, Bomber Choir, Bomber Theatre, and the Bomber Media Collective.
Here's to an incredible 2026-2027 school year. Go Bombers! 💙✈️











Mountain Home High School band directors Mr. Hufford and Mr. May recently had the honor of serving as conductors at the Arkansas Bandmasters Association Conducting Symposium in Fort Smith. The symposium brings together music educators from across the state for professional learning, collaboration, and the opportunity to strengthen their craft as conductors.
Their invitation to lead fellow educators is a testament to the respect they have earned within Arkansas's music education community. We’re proud to have educators who not only inspire our students every day, but also help shape and mentor music teachers across the state.




Stop by and connect with members of your MHPS Board of Education on Open House night (August 6th)!

Meet Leo!
Leo is a 17-month-old Springer Spaniel and is a new member of the Mountain Home Public Schools team! Leo has spent his summer mornings running tracks, and his afternoons training to locate hidden narcotics.
He is trained to identify the source of five different narcotics, and his commands are given in Czech!
You'll likely spot Leo around the district this year as he works alongside his handler, SRO Recktenwald, to help keep our schools safe.
Welcome to the Bomber family, Leo! 💙💛

Congratulations to Mountain Home Bomber swimmer Callie Kohler!
What an incredible performance at the Sectional Championships!
For the second time this season, Callie Kohler has earned a USA Swimming Futures qualifying time! After previously qualifying in the 100 Backstroke, she added a second Futures cut in the 200 Backstroke, touching the wall in 2:22.02!
For those unfamiliar with competitive swimming, earning a Futures cut means a swimmer has achieved one of the top qualifying standards in the country, earning the opportunity to compete at the USA Swimming Futures Championships against many of the nation's fastest swimmers. It's a significant milestone that reflects years of dedication, discipline, and hard work.
Way to represent the Mountain Home Bombers with pride!
