❄️☃️ We had a very special visitor at Malvern Elementary today! ☃️❄️

With the help of our beloved Sandra Brosius, Sneezy the Snowman made his annual appearance at Malvern Elementary School! Sneezy stopped by to visit our Little Leopards, spread some winter cheer, and share one of his favorite stories.

And just to be very clear… Sneezy the Snowman is 𝐚𝐛𝐬𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐍𝐎𝐓 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭, Mrs. Janet Blair, in disguise. 😉😉

Before storytime, Sneezy visited classrooms, handed out free hugs, and brought big smiles to students all over the building. Students then enjoyed cookies while listening to the book Sneezy the Snowman — and the excitement didn’t end there! Every child got to pick one free book to take home and enjoy. 📚💛

A huge thank you to Superintendent Janet Blair for always finding creative and joyful ways to bring magic to our schools, especially during the holiday season. And we owe a very special thank you to Ms. Sandra Brosius, whose passion for reading and children continues to brighten our district every single day. She has devoted her life to helping kids find a love for reading and each other!

We are truly blessed to have such dedicated, caring, and enthusiastic educators here in Malvern.

Yesterday was a fun day of adventure for our 3rd Graders! 🏕️🐆

Yesterday, our 3rd graders from Malvern Elementary spent the day at Camp Winnamocka in Arkadelphia, a place “where adventure begins!”

They had so much fun! They enjoyed a day of team-building activities, hands-on learning, and outdoor fun in a one-of-a-kind frontier-style camp setting. Camp Winnamocka is designed to teach teamwork, problem-solving, and leadership through interactive experiences like ropes courses, creative challenges, and group adventures, and of course friends, family, and teachers were present for all the fun too! 😁

It was a beautiful day to have fun, learn, and grow together. 🥳✨

🎵 Yesterday, our Malvern Leopard Band competed at the ASBOA State Marching Contest! 🎵

Before their performance, the band gathered together in prayer, and they managed to give it everything they had, delivering one of their best performances of the year!

This year’s state score came in 10 points higher than their last appearance, and the band placed 11th out of 27 schools! They also managed to move ahead of several programs that previously ranked above them. Their hard work has been paying off! Take it from us, we know they are practicing hard, we hear them practicing on the field when we get to work in the mornings! 😁

We’re so proud of the hard work, discipline, and passion these students have been showing all season long. They really have been exemplifying the Malvern motto of #PassionPrideExcellence.

Congratulations to the Malvern Band on an amazing performance at War Memorial Stadium yesterday! 🧡🖤🎶

From bubbling reactions to colorful, artistic experiments with "invisible" paint, students used hands-on activities to bring a little fun to the classroom on Halloween!! 👻 Thanks, Mrs. Dassenko! They look like they had a blast! 💥

🇺🇸 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐬 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐅𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐲 𝐀𝐩𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐡 🇺🇸⁣

The Malvern School District proudly recognizes Military Family Appreciation Month, a time to honor the strength, resilience, and sacrifice of the men and women who serve, but more importantly, the families who stand beside them along the way. 🧡💙⁣

Many families in our community have deep ties to military service, and we want to take a moment to thank each of you for your commitment and courage. 𝐌𝐚𝐥𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐧 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞 𝐚 𝐏𝐮𝐫𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥, a designation awarded to schools that show a significant commitment to supporting military-connected students and their families. ⁣

This year’s observance comes during an especially challenging time, as the ongoing federal government shutdown continues to affect many of our service members who are currently not receiving pay. Please know that we see you, we appreciate you, and we stand with you.⁣

💬 Ways to Support Military Families:⁣
• Check in on military families in your community.⁣
• Share valuable resources — many organizations are offering emergency financial or wellness support, we have many on our website!⁣

To help connect families with these services, we’ve compiled a list of organizations offering assistance to military families, available on our website:⁣
🔗https://www.malvernleopards.org/page/purple-star-school⁣

You can find many different resources at the above link, including assistance for issues related to: ⁣
• Advocacy⁣
• Finances⁣
• Food Assistance⁣
• and much more⁣

We especially encourage families to explore resources like:⁣
• Military OneSource, which offers 24/7 support and counseling services.⁣
• Camp Alliance, which helps connect Arkansas military families with emergency and community resources.⁣
• Operation Homefront and Army Emergency Relief, both offering emergency financial assistance to active-duty members and veterans.⁣

Additionally, don't forget that there are many community resources available for every type of family at this link: ⁣
🔗 https://www.malvernleopards.org/page/communityresources⁣

If you have any questions, please reach out to our District Military Education Coordinator, Cass Allen, at callen@malvernleopards.org. Alternatively, you can reach out to David Arnold, our Malvern High School Military Liaison. Mr. Arnold and Mr. Allen are both veterans, and will be happy to help you with any needs you or your family may have.

Thank you to all of our military families for the sacrifices you make every day. You are an important part of our Leopard family, and we support you! Happy Military Family Appreciation Month! ❤️⁣

💵📚 Learning How to “Get Real” About Finances! 📊✨

This week, Malvern High School's Financial Literacy students participated in a hands-on budgeting simulation called Get Real, hosted by the Hot Spring County Extension Office! 💼✅

Students were challenged with real-world financial decision-making. From paying bills and managing necessities to planning for wants and savings, they were shown how to manage it all. They visited “stations” throughout the library where they had to make responsible choices to stay within their budget… just like adulthood! 😉

A big thank you to:
✔️ Mrs. Campbell for leading this important program
✔️ Jessica Rodriguez and the Extension Office for hosting
✔️ Community volunteers who helped add the icing to the cake

Preparing our students for success beyond high school is what we’re all about here at Malvern School District. With #PassionPrideExcellence! 🧡🖤

🎩🎄 A little laughter goes a long way! 🎄🎩

This morning, a couple of our favorite School Resource Officers, Officer O’Keefe and Officer Ridings, decided to sprinkle some extra cheer around Malvern High School! Whether they’re keeping our students safe or sharing a laugh in the hallway, these two always make the day brighter. 😄✨

We are so grateful for their positivity, dedication, and the fun energy they bring to campus each and every day! Thank you to our SROs and the Malvern Police Department for all you do for our schools and community! 🧡🐆🖤

Who would have thought that Santa employed a few of our local police officers for seasonal employment? 🎅🏻
