National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day! Thanks for all you do Officer Donald Crispell.
Important Notice: The high school office would like to remind parents of the deadline for turning in notes for excused absences according to the handbook on page 12.
Medical and other excused absence notes MUST be turned into the office within 5 days of the student’s return to school. Any notes turned in after 5 days will be placed in your file for future reference, but will not be put into ESchool as an excused absence. It is VERY important that we get these notes in a timely manner to ensure accuracy of attendance. It creates several issues with attendance when notes are being faxed or turned in weeks later. Our high school fax number is (870)474-6517. Thank you for your help!
