The West Side Agriculture Education Program is proud to announce that Laiden Lindsey is officially a Certified Veterinary Assistant! 🐾
Laiden passed his certification exam this morning and will be receiving his credentials soon. Veterinary assistants are an essential part of a successful animal healthcare team, working alongside veterinary technicians and veterinarians.
Laiden completed 200 hours in the school-based veterinary assistant program through his agriculture classes, as well as 300 clinical hours at Sartin Animal Care Clinic in Heber Springs. During this time, he gained the required skills and hands-on training for the profession. A big THANK YOU to Dr. Sartin and his staff for their support!
After graduating from high school, Laiden plans to attend the University of Arkansas at Monticello to study Pre-Veterinary Medicine. His ultimate goal is to attend veterinary school and specialize in exotic animals.

First Electric hosted a coloring contest for the West Side's third-grade students. The coloring contest was an original drawing of ways "Willie Wiredhand" can help in the community. First Electric came to celebrate with third-graders, bringing their bucket trucks, crew, and Willie Wiredhand. Kasen Grizzle was chosen by First Electric as the winner of the coloring contest, receiving a Kindle Fire for Kids. All third graders celebrated with delicious pizza and great company! We appreciate First Electric investing in our students! #UnlockingGreatness

Congratulations to Ashlyn Cossey and Madison Gomez on being selected to attend Arkansas Governor’s Scholastic Honors Day!
This prestigious event, hosted by the Arkansas Department of Education, recognizes some of the top academic seniors across the state. Each high school in Arkansas is allowed to select just two students who best represent outstanding academic achievement, making this a truly special honor.
Students and their parents attend a formal ceremony at the Arkansas Governor’s Mansion, where they are recognized for their hard work and dedication, receive a certificate from the governor, and are celebrated alongside other high-achieving seniors from across Arkansas.
Ashlyn and Madison represent the very best of our school, and we are incredibly proud of their accomplishments. Their commitment to excellence in the classroom has earned them this well-deserved recognition.
Please join us in congratulating these outstanding students!
