Recent Sheridan High School graduates Jynika Burton and Zoe Mayberry represented Sheridan High School and the state of Arkansas at the national Educators Rising competition in Washington D.C. June 24-27. The pair had previously won the state competition in K-3 children’s literature and were also accompanied on the trip by their teacher and sponsor from SHS, Abana Nevens. Educators Rising is a student organization for high school and college students who want to have a career in education. The EdRising conference included keynote speakers, breakout sessions and networking.

Though the girls didn’t win, they represented our state, community and school admirably!
