Eureka Springs School District

We are thankful for our school board every day! ✏️📚 Happy School Board Appreciation Month to these dedicated leaders who give their time, support our schools, and help guide our students toward success. We truly appreciate all you do!

All organisms need energy to survive! 🔬🧀 Today in biology lab, students put that idea to the test by measuring the calories in cheese puffs. Hands-on science (and a little snack science) made for a great day of learning!

Science in action in 6th grade with Mr. Taylor! ❄️🧪 Students experienced an exciting liquid nitrogen lab that brought thermal energy concepts to life. They watched a balloon deflate as air molecules slowed way down in the extreme cold, and even saw a rose freeze solid, showing just how powerful temperature changes can be. Engaging, hands-on learning that makes science unforgettable—literally cool stuff! 🌹❄️

🥣 Start the Day Strong with School Breakfast! 🥣

A good day of learning starts with a good breakfast! Eating in the morning helps students focus, boosts energy, and sets them up for success in the classroom. 💪📚

✨ Cafeterias open at 7:30 AM
✨ FREE breakfast for all students
✨ Come grab something delicious before the bell rings!

Here are the events for the week!!!

We’re back at it and diving into learning with a fresh week ahead! 💥 In 8th grade Physical Science, students are tackling a real-world scenario: delivering much-needed supply items to a hurricane-affected region where transportation is limited. Their challenge? Design and build their own catapults to safely drop supplies. The creativity, problem-solving, and engineering ideas they’re coming up with are truly amazing. Hands-on learning at its best! 🚀

🚨 Heads-up!

There’s a TikTok challenge going around that involves taking Benadryl, which can be very dangerous for kids.

This is a good reminder to keep an eye on trending challenges, have open conversations with kids about online risks, and support them in making safe choices. 💛

Together, we can help keep our kids healthy, safe, and informed!

What an amazing start to the semester! This week, our students immersed themselves in stories, exploring new worlds through reading 📖, expressed their creativity through vibrant drawings 🎨, and even learned some impressive jump rope tricks 🤸‍♂️. They worked together to solve teamwork and collaboration challenges 🤝, conducted hands-on science experiments 🔬, and tackled so many exciting activities that made learning fun and interactive. We’re so proud of their curiosity, creativity, and teamwork! Have a wonderful and well-deserved weekend! 🌟

Happy School Resource Officer Day! 🎉

Today we want to give a huge thank you to our very own SRO, Officer Hector Ramos. We are grateful for the safety, support, and care he provides our students and staff each day. Officer Ramos goes above and beyond to build positive relationships, keep our campus secure, and always be there when we need him.

Thank you for all you do, Officer Ramos — we appreciate you today and every day! 💙🚓

💪 Hustlin’ Highlander Spotlight 💪

This week we’re celebrating Kenny Hamblin! Kenny goes out of his way to help classmates understand challenging math and physics concepts in science. He’s an outstanding group partner who brings creativity and innovation to every science project, consistently building models that truly demonstrate scientific ideas.

Beyond the classroom, Kenny is a dedicated band member and absolutely rocks the bass clarinet 🎶. His talent, teamwork, and willingness to help others make him a standout Highlander.

A huge thank-you to Island Airco for sponsoring this Hustlin’ Highlander and supporting our students. It is an honor to have Kenny as a student—keep hustlin’!

January is School Board Appreciation Month! 🎉
We extend our sincere thanks to our School Board members for their dedication, leadership, and commitment to supporting our students, staff, and community. Your service helps shape a strong future for our schools. 💙

Welcome back! Here are the events for the week!

Turn those alarms back on! We will see you tomorrow morning!

What an incredible in-service day with our teachers and staff! 💙 It was so good to come back together as a school family and kick off the day with an amazing breakfast generously served by Mud St. Café—they truly spoiled us with everything from cheesy grits to parfaits, quiche, and a full coffee bar! ☕️ Then it was time to dive into learning, collaboration, and preparation as our teachers got ready for the semester ahead. We’re energized, inspired, and ready… and we can’t wait to welcome our students back on Monday!

Judy Jenquine and her friends did it again, filling gift bags for our students and spreading so much joy. We truly appreciate their continued support and generosity to our school. Pictured here is Annabelle, one of our PreK students, carefully deciding which bag to pick — a pretty big decision for such a little one! 🎁💛

See you back on January 5th!

Mrs. Scott’s 3rd graders are wrapping up the days before Christmas break with hands-on science fun! 🎄✨ They’re learning all about force while experimenting to see just how high their cardboard creations can flip. Learning + excitement = the perfect way to head into break!
