Thank you Catfish Hole- Alma for the surprise lunch for our MHS teachers! We appreciate your support!
As most of you know our construction building plan approval has been delayed due to issues with building code and requirements for storm shelters adopted last summer and brought to attention in late November. We have been working diligently since this issue arose, and together, with the help of several advocates and legislators, it was possible to get revisions adopted into law that will allow us to proceed with our gym/activity center and band room. The tornados that hit the state and destroyed schools as this issue was being debated put added concerns for student safety on the front of everyone's minds.
We got word from the state fire marshal today that our current storm shelter will meet our needs. The project is in the approval and bidding stages and will move forward. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we worked through this issue. Be sure and thank Senators Petty and Caldwell, and Representatives Puryear, Fite, and Evans for advocating specifically for Mountainburg in this case. Dragon ❤ Strong

Dragons make today count!
Choking happens when an object lodges in the throat or windpipe blocking the flow of air. In adults, a piece of food is usually to blame. Young children often choke on small objects. Choking is life-threatening as it cuts off oxygen to the brain. Giving first aid quickly to someone who is choking is essential. If a person can't cough, talk, cry or laugh forcefully, give first aid to the person.
The American Red Cross recommends the following steps:
* Give five back blows.
* If this does not dislodge the object, give five abdominal thrusts aka the Heimlich maneuver.
* Continue alternating these steps until the choking object is dislodged.
If you're the only rescuer, give back blows and abdominal thrusts first. Then call 911 or your local emergency number for help. If another person is there, have that person call for help while you give first aid.
