Week 12

Welcome to Mt. Vernon Intermediate

Dear Students and Families,

We had a great week at MVIS celebrating Red Ribbon Week with fun dress-up days and positive messages about making healthy choices! Our Boo Bash dance was also a huge success—thank you to everyone who helped make it such a fun and memorable event for our students. Looking ahead, we’re preparing to honor those who have served our country during our Veterans Day celebration on November 11. We look forward to showing our gratitude to our veterans.

Let's Go, Marauders!

Sincerely,

Ms. Ashley Gustin

Principal

Thanksgiving Assistance

Outlook Christian Church has volunteered to provide Thanksgiving baskets to families that might need some extra help for Thanksgiving dinner. If you are in need, please fill out this form by Wednesday, October 29th. Baskets will be dropped off at the intermediate school on Monday, November 24th (the Monday before Thanksgiving).

If you have students at multiple schools in the Mt. Vernon School District, please fill out the form that is correlated with your youngest child's school. If you have any questions, please reach out to michelle.shepherd@mvcsc.k12.in.us.

SchoolStore Fundraiser

We started a SchoolStore program to help our school raise money. Scan the QR code on the Book Buddy Lanyard that was sent home with your student to find out how the program works. Parents, please read over the information describing how you can participate. Your student will earn a participation prize when they return the filled-out Student Lanyard to school, and they can earn more great prizes when your family and friends help our school raise money. So don't forget to send the filled out Book Buddy Lanyard back to school, and thanks for your support.
