Congratulations to Naudia Caldwell! She was presented as the Player of the Game vs. Smackover in Monday’s win. Way to go, Naudia!
Gurdon students enjoyed a live performance today of "The Nutcracker." For many students and staff, this was their first ballet. The crew from Hot Springs Children Dance Theater did an amazing job making the story come to life. Special thanks to Mrs. Anita Cabe who provided this opportunity for our district. We are truly grateful for your support and investment in the lives of our children!!!
Additional to the earlier bus announcement. Bull bus kids will be delayed 40-50 minutes today due to being one driver short this afternoon. We apologize for the delay, we are doing all we can to get our kids home as quick as we can with the staff available. Thank you Mr. Self!
Parents! There may be a slight delay in buses this afternoon. It may take a few minutes extra to return students to their campuses after the performance of The Nutcracker. We will do our best to get them home as close to regular time as possible.
UPDATE! The form was not working properly yesterday, hopefully it is working now.
As we are in the giving season, the GHS Upward Bound students would like to help their community! These students are hosting a drive for families in need. They will be collecting items ranging from household essentials (laundry and dish detergents, hygiene products, etc.) and pantry staples to clothes and toys. If you know a family in need, please share this post so that they may fill out the form. If you are interested in donating, please drop off items at the GHS lobby. Each family must fill out the form to receive items from the drive. Help our students to help their community!! If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Cole Hollingsworth at GHS.

Parents - our 8th, 10th and 12th grade students will be taking the APNA survey on November 28. APNA (Arkansas Prevention Needs Assessment Student Survey) is sponsored by the AR Dept. of Human Services and results are used to help plan substance abuse prevention strategies and programs. This is a completely anonymous and voluntary survey that takes about 45 minutes to complete. A letter will be sent home with students tomorrow. If you would prefer that your student NOT participate in the APNA survey, please send the denial of permission slip on the bottom of the letter back to school before November 27.
Gurdon School District has been awarded a $16,519.00 NSLP equipment assistance grant for a new double convection gas oven in our GHS/CES cafeteria! We can't wait to put it to use cooking healthy and tasty meals for our students! #BeGreat
Exciting news! Thanks to the generous support from Arkansas Blue Cross and Blue Shield, we're thrilled to announce that our school is one of 75 selected to receive a $2,500.00 grant to create a calming room for students. 🎉 This dedicated space will provide a peaceful retreat for those in need of a moment to recharge and find inner balance. Stay tuned as we embark on this journey with our incredible students, and keep you updated on our progress!
