Parents of 2024 Seniors: Last year we weren't able to do our normal graduation slideshow because such a small percentage of graduates submitted a baby photo. Please help us by making sure your student brings/sends a baby photo before leaving for Christmas break. This photo will be used in the senior slideshow at graduation. It can be sent to Mrs. Keys' in an email or brought by the office to be scanned. Please be sure your senior has done this by December 22nd. Thank you!
Seniors: We are just 4 weeks away from our goal of having all applications to colleges, trade schools, and post secondary programs finished by December 1st! If you haven't finished your application please see your counselor for help. And don't forget to send a copy of your acceptance so we can get your name on the ShoutOut Wall!

We will provide transportation and lunch for all juniors to tour different types of schools: A large public university (University of Central Arkansas), a highly selective private college (Hendrix), and a smaller private christian college (Central Baptist College).
This is not an attempt to recruit to these colleges, but to educate students about the different types of colleges they can choose from and encourage JRs to plan college visits.
Students will need to provide their own transportation from school to their respective homes that afternoon. We will leave at 8:00 am and be back about 4:15 pm. Lunch will be provided. Students should have someone pick them up at school when the buses return to campus between 4pm & 4:30.
