February 2024

The school would like to thank a private donor in supporting us to incorporate a kindness wall at our school. The purpose of the Uplift Kindness Wall is to build positivity within our staff and students, as well as teach our students the impact that positive words have on others. We invite parents to use the link below to submit kind words about the amazing students and staff that we have at our school.  (This link will also have a permanent spot under the "Parents" tab on our website.)

Don't forget! Mt. Loafer students will have the opportunity to have their Spring Pictures taken on Thursday, February 22nd.

Nebo School District will offer a virtual "Parenting the Love and Logic Way" Workshop.  

“There's a lot of advice out there on how to raise your kids—some better than others. "Love and Logic" is a favorite of therapists,
family life educators, teachers, principals, and most importantly parents. It is practical, easy to learn and really effective! Come and enjoy this fun, upbeat and informative workshop full of useful tips!”
