Students in Mrs. Carr's 3rd Grade Literacy class peer-reviewed their narrative writing. Students were able to provide feedback to each other on the introduction portion of their essays. By doing so, students were given the chance to learn from each other and practice communication skills. It was really rewarding to hear them provide each other with positive and helpful feedback and reflect on their own errors. #GoBobcats #ALLIN #HopeForTheFuture

Magnet Coordinator Allison Rowe and Mr. Herron, HAPS Digital Broadcasting Magnet teacher, recently took students on an exciting educational visit to Henderson State University in Arkadelphia. The students had the opportunity to tour the university's broadcasting studio, where they learned about the advanced equipment, broadcasting software, and how to organize a professional broadcast. During the visit, they engaged with college students in the broadcasting program and even had the chance to film HAPS' daily newscast for the following day, gaining hands-on experience in a real-world studio environment. The visit was highly informative, and we are incredibly grateful to Henderson State University for sharing their time and insights with us. The students behaved exceptionally well, answering specific technology-related questions and actively participating in discussions. Thanks to Mr. Herron’s preparation, they are more than ready for their “jobs” on the HAPS campus after demonstrating both skill and professionalism throughout the tour.
