As the Yellowjackets prepare for another exciting football season, it seems fitting to tip our hats to Sheridan's first football team, a rugged bunch pictured here in 1924. Notice that helmets at that time were made of leather and none had facemasks. Those in the picture appear loose-fitting and seem to also lack chin-straps.
We hope to see you there! Go Jackets!

Throwback Thursday
We’re kicking off a new tradition – every Thursday this school year, we plan to share a piece of Sheridan School District history along with some vintage photos or art from years gone by.
In 1873, the Arkansas Gazette described Sheridan as “blessed with quiet law-abiding citizens with a highly cultivated state of morals.” The article indicated that locals were eager to build “a fine male and female high school,” which was completed around 1879 on the northeast corner of Oak and Bell Streets.
Not long after, the school moved to the site of today’s Sheridan Middle School. The first building there had just two rooms, but by 1884 it was replaced with a four-room frame schoolhouse – marking the humble beginnings of today’s Sheridan School District.
Information and photo from “SHS: The First 100 Years, 1879-1979” compiled by Elwin Goolsby and Bobbie Nelson Graves. #YJNation #ExcellenceEveryDay
The Yellowjackets kick off 2025 with a preseason exhibition on August 19 at Malvern, then play their season-opener at White Hall on August 29. The Jackets' first home game will be Sept. 5 against Hot Springs Lakeside, and the first conference game will be at West Memphis on Sept. 26. Senior Night will be Oct. 24 against Marion, and Homecoming will be Nov. 7 against El Dorado.
Schedules for all Sheridan fall sports are available at this link: https://shorturl.at/b6ZYM.
We're all looking forward to an exciting year of Yellowjacket football! Go Jackets!
The team placed first in their Jam performance and earned a superior ribbon on the final day of camp. They also received the Technical Excellence award for their Jam performance, and a group of girls in the squad won in their division for Top Gun Stunt Group.
We’re so proud of these athletes and their hard work!
The Sheridan 7th-8th grade cheer teams participated in the National Cheerleaders Association (NCA) Cheer Camp earlier this month and brought home several awards.
They won second place in Game Day Cheer and earned the Herkie Team Award for Leadership, which was given to one junior high team out of all who attended. The teams also received an invitation to the Citrus Bowl and a Showmanship award in Jam.
Ten cheerleaders were nominated for All American, with one earning the honor. Three girls received the Pin-it-Forward award, and one earned the Individual Leadership Award, which was chosen from all junior high participants.
The girls also enjoyed bonding with other squads, including Greenwood, Hazen, and Mat 1.
A special thank you to Roof Connect, Jeff Vance, Pam Clark, and Arley Wheetley Arkansas Electric Service and Contracting for providing meals and treats. Your support kept the girls going strong!
