Assistant Superintendent Stacy DeFoor recently presented a Certificate of Appreciation to one of our outstanding bus drivers, Regina Mosley.

Ms. Regina received a shout-out from Sheridan High School Assistant Principal Nick Soapes, who shared: “Ms. Regina on bus 16 is a fantastic driver who the district is lucky to have. She is kind, friendly, and always has a smile for students and staff alike. She has pulled double-route after double-route route just to make sure that kids get home. When the time change started, she even tried combining two routes (taking money out of her own pocket) just to make sure that kids were able to get home before it was dark outside. She is a great example of service to her students and their families in how she seeks to communicate with and take care of the kids on her bus.”

We are incredibly grateful for Ms. Regina’s dedication, compassion, and commitment to ensuring our students get to and from school safely each day. Thank you, Ms. Regina, for all that you do! #YJNation #ExcellenceEveryDay

Congratulations to Sheridan Elementary School and Sheridan Middle School for being recognized as Purple Star Schools in Arkansas!

The Arkansas Purple Star School Award honors K-12 schools and districts that show a strong commitment to supporting students and families connected to our nation’s armed forces. These schools provide resources and a welcoming environment to help military children transition smoothly, succeed in their new schools, and strengthen the bond between schools and military families.

This recognition highlights the dedication of these schools to serving military-connected students with compassion, understanding, and programs that go above and beyond.

The Arkansas Purple Star School program is operated by the Arkansas Council for Military Children in cooperation with the Arkansas Department of Education.

SES and SMS join EEE, EEI and EEM as Purple Star Schools. The three East End schools attained Purple Star status earlier this semester.

We are so proud of our schools for creating a supportive and welcoming environment for those who serve our country! #YJNation #ExcellenceEveryDay
