Reminder ‼ There will be no school this coming Monday, Feb. 20th in observance of President's Day. Enjoy the 3-day weekend! 🦁

Wow is all we can say 🧡 Thank you to the Bogle family for paying off ALL the student lunch debt - not only at Upper Elementary, but also at Duffy Elementary. Two. Entire. Schools = no meal debt. We can't even begin to express what this will mean for our families, but just know there has already been happy cheers/tears and lots of hugs. Thank you for being apart of our lion pride and helping ALL students succeed 🦁 #experincethepride
Tomorrow (Friday, February 3rd) will be another AMI day for students. Again, please look towards your child's teacher for further information. This is due to backroads and parking lots still being covered in ice (which will refreeze tonight) and therefore will be a huge safety risk. Our #1 priority is keeping all of our students and staff safe! Thank you for understanding!
Community resource ❗ Tomorrow's Food Pantry will still be happening, but there is only one pick-up time! Noon - 4pm. Please be careful if you plan to venture out. We know the roads are slick, but wanted this resource to be available for families who may need it 🧡 This is for any family that has students attending Gravette Schools. 🦁
