Last night downtown there was lots of holiday hustle and bustle, and the Pinkston Middle School Varsity Choir set the soundtrack! Thanks to the mayor for providing pizza to our kids after they entertained the masses!

Pinkston Parents,
On Friday afternoon our administration and law enforcement handled a disciplinary situation that involved a report of a student making a threat of violence. We conducted a threat assessment and have handled the situation according to district policy and in conjunction with local law enforcement.
While we cannot release details about any student disciplinary action, please know that this situation has been managed appropriately and no real threat to safety existed in this situation.
I want to take this opportunity to ask that you all have conversations at home about how a flippant comment related to violence can have life-altering impacts. When it comes to threats of violence, everything has to be considered as real and imminent until it is proven otherwise. An empty and baseless threat of violence still has very real consequences – for students and their families – both on the school disciplinary level and on a legal level. Additionally I encourage you to talk with your children about the importance of continuing to report real or perceived threats so that they can be addressed.
Thank you for your cooperation and support in this regard. Each of these situations is incredibly nuanced, but the bottom line is that we take any threat seriously and we will continue to put student safety and well-being first.
Allyson Dewey
Superintendent

Cafeteria Corner:
It's not too late to turn in applications for free and reduced lunches! Online is the best option (EZmealapp.com) You may also setup a payment through (EZschoolpay.com)
They must be done every year; there is no carry over from one year to the next.
Also if your student qualifies for free/reduced meals, this covers the cost of one meal -- including milk. If your child goes back for a second on anything, it is not covered by the application and will end up going on the child's account.
Exciting news! Thanks to the generous support from Arkansas Blue Cross and Blue Shield, we're thrilled to announce that GBCCA is one of 75 schools selected to create a calming room for students. 🎉 This dedicated space will provide a peaceful retreat for those in need of a moment to recharge and find inner balance. Stay tuned as we embark on this journey with our incredible students, and keep you updated on our progress! #TakeGoodCareArkansas
