The Yellowjacket golf team participated the past two days in the 5A-South district tournament in Hot Springs. Thatcher Allen shot an 87 and qualified to compete in the state competition Oct. 4 at Hurricane Golf Club in Benton. Coach Scott Hoffman said of the team, "I'm very proud of our Yellowjackets as they have battled for two days in 100 degree heat. They have been working since July in sweltering heat, thunderstorms, and you name it. They all worked hard and really improved." Of Allen's performance, Hoffman said, "This guy got it done today! He has worked so hard after coming up just short last year. Lots of effort, work, and determination paid off."

In the 2015, the Arkansas General Assembly passed a resolution designating September as annual “Take Your Legislator to School Month.” This bipartisan initiative was motivated so members of the General Assembly could better understand the issues and challenges facing public schools in their districts, as well as the innovative solutions our educators are developing. On Wednesday, the Sheridan School District hosted local legislators, State Rep. Ken Bragg and State Rep. Julie Mayberry. In addition to meeting with administrators, they had an opportunity to visit with a group of high school student leaders and engage in a question-and-answer session.
