🎣 Hooked on Learning — and Fishing! 🐟 Western Hills Elementary School students had an unforgettable day at Boyle Park for the 4th Annual Fishing Derby, organized by beloved P.E. teacher and fishing enthusiast Coach Amy Kennedy! 🐟 With poles in hand and excitement in the air, 1st through 5th graders tried their luck at catching catfish in a pond freshly stocked by the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission. For many, it was their very first catch — and the smiles said it all!

LRSD continues to monitor weather conditions and has NO plans to dismiss early at this time. However, all after-school activities are canceled. If adjustments need to be made to our plans, we will contact you immediately.Please monitor your messages from LRSD for updates. Thanks!
Due to the threat of severe weather moving into our area, LRSD will dismiss school early today, all after-school activities are cancelled, and CARE will be closed. Elementary sites will dismiss at 1:30 p.m., followed by secondary schools at 2:30 p.m. This decision was made in the best interest of students and staff, in consultation with the National Weather Service, LRSD’s Emergency Management and Transportation teams, and surrounding districts. Please note that if tornado sirens are activated during these dismissal times, we will initiate our shelter-in-place procedures, and building doors will be locked until the threat has passed. Thank you for your understanding as we prioritize the safety and well-being of our students and staff. Please stay safe.
