"October 8th is Dyslexia Awareness Day! To show support and spread knowledge about reading and spelling challenges, Eureka Springs School District asks everyone to join us in wearing RED.
Did you know that no two brains are wired exactly the same? Some people are natural artists, some are star athletes, some excel at building things, and others are incredible readers.
For students with dyslexia or those who struggle with reading and spelling, their brains simply process letters and sounds in a unique, creative way. Because of this, reading and writing might take extra time or effort. It can have absolutely nothing to do with intelligence. In fact, some people with dyslexia are brilliant problem solvers, artists, builders, and storytellers.
Today and every day, let’s celebrate the different ways our brains work. Remember to always be kind, patient, and supportive friends to everyone around you!"

☕️ Highlanders Coffee is BACK! ☕️
Mrs. Jester’s Life Skills class is back at it with their Highlanders Coffee business! ❤️🤍🖤
These students are doing so much more than serving coffee—they’re building real-world skills by taking orders, counting money, preparing orders, and making deliveries. 👏
We love watching them learn, work together, build confidence, and show off what they can do!
Way to go, Mrs. Jester and Highlanders Coffee crew! ☕️🙌
