Tonight at the school board of education meeting, Mr. Powell recognized school board president, Chad Hipps for 10 years of service on the Berryville School board. It was also very fitting that a group of second graders presented their research tonight to the board members on which monkey bars should be placed on the elementary playground. You see, in January for board appreciation month, school board members were presented with many letters of appreciation from students. Chad promised that every single letter would be read. To follow up on that promise, Chad made mention at the next (February) board meeting that students were requesting monkey bars for their playground. The students returned this month with their research. Chad made one final request to the Board of Education of the Berryville School District, and that was to purchase and install monkey bars on the elementary playground. Thank you, Chad, for ten years of service to the Berryville School District!

School will not be in session for students on March 14 & 15. March 14 is Parent Teacher Conferences. Each school will communicate specific information for their building. March 15 is a Professional Development Day for our staff.

Bobcat Families - remember to move your clocks forward one hour! Happy Sunday! 💜

Bobcat Academy Families, Don't forget that FRIDAY, MARCH 8, the Bobcat Academy will be in session for FUN FRIDAY activities! This is a make-up snow day for the after school program. If your child is unable to attend, please call the Intermediate School office and let us know.

Yesterday was Maintenance Worker Appreciation Day... We made the post, but it didn't get posted. SO, better late than never to celebrate our Maintenance Workers. They work tirelessly to keep our campuses looking great and functioning well! We appreciate you at #BobcatNation!

Berryville, AR – March 1, 2024 – To encourage more families to take advantage of the healthy choices available with school breakfast, Berryville Schools will celebrate National School Breakfast Week (NSBW) during March 4-8, 2024. Busy weekday mornings make it a challenge for many families to find time for a healthy breakfast. Fortunately, Berryville Schools offer nutritious school breakfasts, complete with fruit and low-fat or fat-free milk, to ensure students are fueled for learning every school day. The NSBW campaign theme, “Surfs Up with School Breakfast,” reminds the entire school community that school breakfast provides a healthy and energizing start to the day for students. Studies show that students who eat school breakfast are more likely to: • Reach higher levels of achievement in reading and math • Score higher on standardized tests • Have better concentration and memory • Be more alert • Maintain a healthy weight School nutrition professionals and students will be encouraged to show their enthusiasm for school breakfast from March 4-8 as the district celebrates NSBW with special menus, activities, and more. A healthy breakfast at the start of the day is a great way to ensure students are nourished and ready to learn. National School Breakfast Week helps us educate parents and students about all the nutritious and delicious choices we offer. Parents and students can follow the fun on Facebook.com/TrayTalk.

🟣🟡Reminder!!!🟡🟣 Our new schedule begins tomorrow morning! The High School and Middle School doors will open at 7:25 am. Classes will begin at 7:45 with the first bell ringing at 7:41.
