When school buses stop, lives are on the line. Please remember: if the red lights are flashing, you must stop. A child’s life depends on it. Together, we can keep our students safe this school year. 🚸🚌

Illustration of a yellow school bus with children waving inside. Text reads: “When Red’s Flashing Stop! A Child’s Life Depends on It.” The image reminds drivers to stop when a school bus’s red lights are flashing to protect children’s safety.

 promotional digital graphic features an announcement for a "Special Summer Meal Pickup" on July 21st, 2025. At the center is a large red "H" with the word "Bobcats" written in white script across it. Above the logo, bold black text reads "Special Summer Meal Pickup," and below it, the date "July 21st, 2025" is displayed in black text. The background is white, and the layout is clean and centered.
Teachers from Yerger and BHE participated in an exciting summer professional development with Arkansas A+, where they explored how to integrate STEAM into their curriculum through music, art, movement, and more. This training, in partnership with our Magnet Program, sparked creativity and collaboration — and we can’t wait to see these engaging activities come to life in the classroom!

Thank you for your time, energy, and dedication — Mrs. Rowe

The Hope Magnet Program took HHS Students to Little Rock for HBCU College Tour supported by Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity inc. There were 16 colleges present. The students seemed to favor Southern University in Baton Rouge, Wiley College, UAPB, and Grambling State University. It was a great experience for our students. One of our students, Shy’Anna Farris, applied at Southern University and was accepted!! Magnet is excited to be able to offer these opportunities for our students. Sheila Hopson and Chatorie Terrell were there to help the students find suitable universities.
