Due to the Junior High Girls Basketball team making the district tournament championship game this Thursday, we have moved our monthly school board work session to tomorrow at 5:30. The meeting will be held in the district administration office.
Here is the link for tickets. The tournament host is NOT set up to take cash at the gate, only credit cards or pre-purchased tickets through this link: https://gofan.co/event/5287043?schoolId=AR18626
Tickets are good for both gyms and all game times. Only AAA passes will be accepted.
Streaming will only be available for games in the Harris (New) Gym. Those games will be streamed at the Harding Academy Hudl Fan link at: https://fan.hudl.com/usa/ar/searcy/organization/6210/harding-academy
Due to the recent winter weather, we have missed a total of 5 instructional days. To make up this time and ensure we meet state requirements, we are making a few adjustments to our calendar.
The remaining scheduled PLC days that were listed as non student contact days on our current school calendar will now be regular student instruction days. This change allows us to recover instructional time while keeping our school year on track.
Because our district operates on a minutes based calendar, we also had instructional minutes banked that we are able to use.
We appreciate your flexibility and support as we work to ensure students receive the instructional time they need. Thank you for partnering with us and for your patience during this winter season.
If you have questions, please reach out to your child’s school office.
