Mrs. Tiffany Webb is the MVBT September Teacher of the Month! Mrs. Webb teaches 5th grade Science at Mountain View Elementary. Here are a few things her colleagues say about her:
Tiffany Webb is selfless, she spends her time and often $$ making life better for her co-workers. She often spends her "spare time" helping create document and organizational tools to help keep us on track. This is evident in both her service as a Kickoff teammate and 5th grade teacher. She always goes above and beyond! She needs to be recognized for this. Tiff is the best! She cares so deeply for each and every one of her students like her own. She is also is probably the most organized person at MVE. She makes sure, not only her room, but her neighboring colleagues and their rooms are organized and neat as well, making it the best possible place for these students to learn! Tiffany is such an asset at MVBT. I am on the Back to School Fair Committee with her and the event wouldn't happen if it wasn't for her leadership. She is literally the gasoline that keeps the fire lit. I also know she's a passionate teacher that motivates students to do their best. If "Hard Worker" would be an award, she'd win it. Tiffany Webb’s creativity and tireless dedication bring science to life for her 5th-grade students. Her passion for teaching makes every lesson engaging and memorable, inspiring a love for learning. Tiffany Webb’s boundless energy and creativity make her 5th-grade science classroom an exciting place to learn.
Mrs. Webb was presented with a gift certificate to a local restaurant from the school district. In addition, Ruffwood Market donated a cute bag to present to her.
Congratulations, Mrs. Tiffany Webb. We appreciate you!
Save the date!
Mr. Dan Lee is the September Support Staff Member of the Month! Dan is the MVBT bus mechanic, along with a bus route driver. Here are some things his colleagues say about him:
Dan does it all for the bus barn! He drives, covers, and makes sure everything is taken care of for our students. He is the best! He cares and works very hard at his job. Dan has a lot of responsibility to keep our buses safe and on the road everyday. He has a positive attitude. He is focused. He is committed and one of the hardest workers I know. Our bus mechanic works tirelessly behind the scenes, ensuring that our buses are safe and ready to go each day. His dedication and expertise keep our transportation department running smoothly, making a big difference in the lives of our students and staff. Dan’s hard work and attention to detail ensure that our buses are always reliable and safe. We deeply appreciate his dedication to keeping our students’ journeys smooth and secure every day!

*James went his own way with a Tortilla Cheese Pizza! 😉
Everyone left with full bellies and big smiles!

Lady Eagles golf tee’d up in Mtn Grove for a 9 hole match at Randel Hinkle Golf Course. Both girls struggled out of the gate today. Payton started her day of with a triple bogey and a few double pars but kept grinding it out through the round. Kameryn also got off to a rough start being +6 after her first 3 holes. Her tee shot off the par 4 3rd hole barely went OB which resulted in a triple bogey. She then went on to make 5 straight pars to claim the lead! Payton finished 23rd today and Kameryn won her 4th straight meet! Awesome job girls!! ⛳️🦅
