Mrs. Jean Smithey was presented a Badger Pride Award in the February Arkadelphia School Board meeting. Mrs. Smithey is a retired Arkadelphia Public Schools teacher and speaks fluent Spanish. She volunteers twice a week to work with one of our students who moved to Arkadelphia from Mexico at the end of last year. This has helped tremendously to strengthen the student's knowledge in literacy. She was nominated by Perritt Primary 2nd Grade teacher, Mrs. Debbie Robertson who states, “Mrs. Smithey exemplifies what it means to demonstrate Badger Pride.” Thank you Jean Smithey for making a difference in the lives of our students! #BadgerPride 💙

​​The main water line that services Goza Middle School and Arkadelphia High School has been broken. Estimated time for repair is 2-3 hours. Lunches have already been prepared and nearing the end of serving. If parents want to pick up students or call to give permission for their student driver to check out, it will be considered excused. Buses will not run until regular dismissal times. We will have bottled water available for students who stay on campus. Thank you for your understanding and patience as we work through this unfortunate and unexpected event. Perritt Primary and Peake Elementary are not impacted and will continue their regular school day.
