CHEER CHALLENGE: Each class will present a cheer at the Pep Rally. The winning cheer will be combined with the weekly participation to determine who wins the Spirit Stick. Elementary cheerleaders will be planning the Pep Rally, which will be on Friday, February 24th, at 9:00 a.m., and they will be presenting the Spirit Stick. (Notice that the time of the Pep Rally has been changed from last week’s newsletter.)

SOMETHING NEW AT MOUNTAIN VIEW! We have installed water filling stations throughout the school! If you send a water bottle with your child, he/she can fill it with clean, filtered water. This will prevent your child from having to buy water from the school. We wanted you to be aware of this so the children can take advantage of this great opportunity to have water whenever they need it.

WEST VIRGINIA HISTORY BOWL: We are proud to announce that four of our eighth graders participated in the WV History Bowl, and their team was Runner Up! They are now invited to go to the 2023 State WV History Bowl! Congratulations to Jed Taylor, Eli Watson, Braedyn Yellets, and Maraeya Stewart.

REMINDER: Mountain View Christian School is a closed campus; therefore, students are not to leave the campus for lunch.
