Mena School District

Paint the Paw fundraiser!

Mena High School is proud to be able to provide most of the school supplies needed this year for their students. We hope this relieves some of the financial burden of beginning school. If any additional supplies are needed, the students will be informed in their classes. GO BEARCATS!

The Mena High School Faculty and Staff would like to take this opportunity to welcome your student to the new school year. We are asking that prior to Open House you take the time to complete the Mena High School Required Student Forms for any children who are enrolled at Mena High School. Paperwork must be completed before your child will be able to pick up their Chromebook.

Earlier this week the Mena Public Schools asked patrons to participate in a survey. There were only 40 responses on the poll and 12 of those indicated they would participate in a vaccine clinic at the school. We have talked to health officials in town and the number of young people being vaccinated at the Health Unit and pharmacy is increasing so we encourage all of you who said 'yes' to the clinic to have our students vaccinated at those places. There is not enough interest to organize a vaccine clinic at the school. Thank you!
