🎉🐐 G.O.A.T. Alert! 🐐🎉
Congratulations to Mr. Guffey, the latest recipient of the LMS G.O.A.T. Award, passed on by Kelli Smotherman!
Mr. Guffey is drama-free, respectful, patient, a team player, and a role model for all of our students. His positive attitude shines throughout the day, and he goes above and beyond—especially when working hard at the crosswalk to keep everyone safe.
Thank you, Mr. Guffey, for being an essential part of #TheLMSWay! We’re lucky to have you! 💙❤️
Great comeback win for the boys last night in Houston as they advance to their 2nd straight district championship game tomorrow night at 6 V Thayer. The girls looking to repeat as district champs play Licking tonight in the semifinal round at Cabool game time 7 pm. Liberty is hosting the Class 1 district semifinals here at 6:00 and 7:30.
Our 8th-grade students had a blast competing on IXL after learning about synthetic materials! They put their knowledge to the test and showed off their science skills. #TheLMSWay

As we plan for the 2025-2026 school year, we are making leadership changes to ensure that ALL of our students receive the best possible experience. Our goal is to provide students at both Birch Tree and Mountain View Elementary with the same opportunities—academically and through extracurricular activities.
By strengthening leadership alignment between our two elementary buildings, we can ensure that students have consistent expectations and a strong foundation as they move into middle and high school. This also allows our elementary staff to collaborate, support one another, and share best practices so that every student benefits.
You will find Mrs. Jester to be a leader who is passionate about education and deeply loves all MVBT staff, students, and parents. She will be spending her time in both elementary buildings, with the leadership support of two assistant principals.
These changes are rooted in what is best for kids. We appreciate your support as we work to create the best possible learning environment for every child in our district.
Please do not hesitate to reach out to Mrs. Tharp, Superintendent, if you have any questions during the process.
❄️🍨 6th Grade Math + Snow Ice Cream = A Sweet AMI Day! 🍨❄️
Our 6th graders turned their AMI day into a delicious math adventure! They applied their skills in solving expressions to calculate the perfect amount of ingredients needed to make snow ice cream. Learning + a tasty treat = math magic!
Way to go, 6th grade—you’re making math (and snow days) even sweeter! #TheLMSWay
District basketball starts tomorrow night.The boys are in Houston at 7:30, this district is cash only. The girls district is in Cabool, the Liberty girls do not play until Thursday night. This site is digital tickets only. At LHS, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday is a Class 1 district and it is cash only. Some confusion out there, but each district has the option to do cash or digital. Good luck to all of our teams and coaches.
Saturday was packed with excitement! We had another round of senior night ballgames with two hard-fought games against Thayer. The gym was full of energy, with elementary cheerleaders performing between games and elementary boys basketball teams playing at halftime of the boys' game.
A big THANK YOU to Mercy for treating our Pep Club members to pizza — we appreciate your support!
Another successful RAD night for our FFA program! We had a great turnout, good food and prizes! It's great to see community support for the boys and girls! Thank you to everyone who bought a ticket, donated prizes and auction items to support our local FFA program!
Busy day in the gym tomorrow thanks to the snow. We will begin with senior night right before 2:00 pm, we will honor the senior girls and boys. Varsity girls V Thayer, elementary cheer at halftime. Varsity boys V Thayer and elementary boys basketball short scrimmage at halftime. Regular season will end tomorrow and both teams start district play next week.
School will not be in session tomorrow, Friday, February 21. Tomorrow is an old fashioned snow day, not a Learn and Return Day. We will be making up tomorrow's snow day on Monday, March 3.
The Thayer girls and boys games will be Saturday. Varsity girls st 2 pm, followed by varsity boys. There will be no JV boys game. Officials will be scarce Saturday with several schools making up games.
The girls game with Thayer is cancelled for tomorrow night. We are currently working on a plan for Friday to play all of the games.. (boys JV, girls varsity and boys varsity)
School will not be in session tomorrow, Thursday, February 20. Tomorrow is an AMI Learn and Return Day.
Due to the weather, school will not be in session Wednesday, February 19. Tomorrow is an AMI Learn and Return Day.
The girls are scheduled to play on Thursday vs Thayer at home, boys on Friday. We will see how much snow we get, then look at combining those games if we have to. We will send updates as information is available.
Due to the forecasted snowfall expected to begin around noon tomorrow, school will be closed. With the timing of the snow, we are concerned about safely getting students home if early dismissal becomes necessary.
Tomorrow is NOT an AMI Learn and Return Day—it’s an old-fashioned snow day! Enjoy the day off, stay safe, and have fun!
