🎉 Welcome to the official Mountain Peak Elementary social media page! 🎉

We are so excited to begin this new adventure together! 🏔️💙

Our BASE program is ready to welcome students starting Tuesday (at Heritage Elementary due to construction at Mountain Peak), and they already have their very first Mountain Peak Elementary swag! 👕🐴

The fun is just getting started! Our BASE team has some amazing field trips, exciting activities, and special events planned throughout the summer. ✨

Here’s to a fantastic summer and first year at Mountain Peak Elementary! ❤️💙

Love,

Today marked the last day of school at Heritage Elementary ❤️💙 As we close this chapter, we do so with full hearts, celebrating 25 years of memories, friendships, growth, and lives changed within these halls.

Next year, we look forward to joining together with our Summit View neighbors to become Mountain Peak Elementary and start an exciting new journey together! 🌟

While today was bittersweet, it was also filled with pride and celebration as we honored our Kindergarten, 5th grade, and 6th grade graduates 🎓 and cheered on our 5th and 6th graders during their clap out 👏

What an incredible staff, amazing students, and supportive community Heritage has been blessed with over the years. Thank you for the memories, the love, and the legacy.

Once an Explorer, always an Explorer ❤️🧭

Jack and Owen were Mrs. Lawson’s principals for the day! 🏫🎉 They monitored recess and lunch, helped in the office, carried walkie-talkies like true school leaders, and even got to enjoy pizza in the principal’s office! 🍕📻 What a fun and memorable day for these awesome boys! 😄👏

🐴📚 Galloping into Kindergarten at Mountain Peak Elementary! Today was our Kindie Sneak-a-Peek and we loved welcoming over future kindergartners and their families to school! 💙✨

Our future Mustangs enjoyed a read aloud in the library 📖, explored brain bins 🧠, practiced walking through the lunch line 🍎, and had a blast on the playground 🛝! To top it all off, each student got to take home a mini Maverick — our Mountain Peak mascot! 🐴

We are SO excited to welcome this amazing group of future Mustangs, Class of 2039, to Mountain Peak Elementary! 💫💙

Wow…the snow day really messed things up 🤣🤦‍♀️ Mr. Ceigle has asked all elementary schools to agree on a common schedule for the clap out so all seniors are dismissed at the same time to head to their elementary schools. So…

NEW TIME & DATE! MVHS Senior Clap Out
MVHS Senior Clap Out, May 19th 10:15-11:00am


The MVHS Clap Out is a special tradition where our MVHS Seniors who are Heritage Alumni return to walk the halls one final time. Current students line the hallways to celebrate them with high fives and well wishes, while families join us to share in a heartfelt farewell and send-off for our Senior Explorers.

10:15am: DOORS OPEN TO SENIORS
Seniors will be asked to arrive in the main hallway. Parents will hang outside until we invite them in. A Heritage staff member will take a group photo in the main hall at 10:25am! Don’t be late!

10:25 am:
Heritage teachers will line their POD area with their students
We will invite parents of seniors in to line the main hallway at 10:25 **ALL parents should arrive by 10:25!

10:30 am:
Seniors will be led by Principal Lawson from the cafeteria and walk through all pod areas and exit main entrance. Parents will wait for the parade to pass by the main hall the second time, then follow the seniors out the main doors.
Seniors will exit the building and enjoy a special Eileen’s cookie!
