Tomorrow is the Solar Eclipse over Arkadelphia! Goza Media Specialist Kathy created an Eclipse bulletin board for the school library. The sun is a yellow frisbee with lights she taped inside it and black felt covering the whole thing. When the lights are turned on within the frisbee it looks like an “eclipsed sun.”
Here's what is happening this week in the Arkadelphia Public School District.
Remember there is NO school on Monday, April 8th. We will see everyone back to school on Tuesday.
Have a great week!

On Tuesday, AHS and Goza Middle School students had the opportunity to hear from Jason Binz, Arkansas FFA Pathway Director, and four current college students who have been leaders in Future Farmers of America. Our high school students have the option to select a Survey of Agriculture class for next year. The presenters shared the benefits of being involved with FFA and answered questions the Arkadelphia students had about the program.
