We are asking all parents and guardians to complete our Parent Needs Assessment. Your input is very important and helps us better understand how we can support students and families.
The survey only takes a few minutes, and your responses will guide us in planning programs, resources, and opportunities that best serve our school community.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and for being an important part of our Bobcat family! ❤️

🎉 Celebrating Our Leaders in Education! 🎉
We are proud to share that Ms. Laura Gray, our ESOL Coordinator, attended the Arkansas IMPACT Fellowship June Symposium in Little Rock from June 25–28, 2025. Representing Southwest Arkansas as an IMPACT Ambassador, Ms. Gray collaborated with ambassadors from across the state and co-produced a session with Cohort 5 members, Brandolyn Patterson and Teresa Blake. She also shared valuable insights on interview strategies with the new Cohorts 9 and 10! 🌟
👏 A big congratulations also goes out to Mr. Michael Herron, who was recently selected as the newest Arkansas IMPACT member for Hope School District!
We are grateful for the leadership, dedication, and excellence that both Ms. Gray and Mr. Herron bring to our students and schools. 💙❤️ #HopePublicSchools #WeEmpower
