Here is a look into the first full week of school in the Mount Vernon City School District.

At The Mount Vernon Honor Academy, kindergartners have been learning valuable communication skills by practicing working with one another, sharing toys and supplies, and building connections with other students that are both fun and respectful. Hugs and toys are going to be exchanged with ease for these young students thanks to their amazing teachers!
