HOMECOMING WEEK STARTS MONDAY.
|THANK YOU|
Heber Springs Schools and the Heber Springs Athletic Department would like to send a HUGE thank you to our local McDonald’s Restaurant for always helping out our students when needed. Not only did McDonald’s step up as one of our school supply sponsors for the Elementary students this year, but they also provide our football team with breakfast EVERY Friday morning and supplies our concession stand with burgers for every Sr. High Panther Football game.
Once again, we are honored to shout to the world how blessed we are at Heber Springs! Thank you for always supporting us academically and athletically!
ATTENTION PARENTS:
We wanted to remind you that Monday, October 19th is a Virtual Day for all students of Heber Springs Schools. This date has been been on the school calendar. In the past, this day was a Professional Development day for our teachers and students would not have been on campus anyway; however, when the Governor pushed the school start date back to August 24th, we needed to find a way to make up those days without adding them on to the end of the school year. The idea of the Virtual Day was a way to give the anticipated break but still have it counted as a school day for our students.
All students will have an assignment from their teachers on this day and are expected to complete the work by the set time. If you have questions, you will be able to email the teacher(s) for assistance. All students should know how to login to Google Classroom and any other website to check for the assignments.
If you have any questions or concerns about the Virtual Day or issues with internet service, please contact Bahar Pruitt BEFORE Thursday, October 15th you can call or send a text to 501-206-1546 or email at bahar.pruitt@hssd.k12.ar.us. Please list the name of your student and what school building they attend.
We wanted to let everyone know that all vouchers for the CAC game have been distributed.
|WORLD TEACHER DAY|
We have THE best teachers in education at Heber Springs Schools and we want everyone to know it!

|FIRSTIES|
After reading The Leaf Man, Ms Patchin’s class used their “iPhones” to record and collect nature to make their own leaf creations.
|LOGIN PROBLEMS|
This message was just sent to us by our IT Director....
“Microsoft Azure AD is currently down all over the country. This will likely keep our students from logging into all of their chrome books and services like google classroom, e-mail, etc. There is currently no estimated time of when it will be fixed by Microsoft.”
|FLU SHOT|
Forms will be sent home today for this year’s Flu Clinic. They must be completed and returned NO LATER THAN October 7th. Forms for Remote Panthers will be available in the building offices. The clinic will be held October 15th. Please remember, this is a clinic that we have every year, this is nothing new and will ONLY be for the flu vaccine.
|HOMECOMING|
It’s time to start planning your outfits for HOMECOMING WEEK! We are excited that the entire district will be able to participate once again! Can’t wait to see all of the amazing creations by our students and staff!

Panther Nation-
On Thursday, September 24th, the Administration at Heber Springs Schools was made aware of a positive COVID-19 case in the Heber Springs Elementary School. The Administration has contacted the Arkansas Department of Health for further guidance, and through contact tracing by the ADH and HSSD, the individuals who were at risk for primary exposure have been contacted. The Administration will continue to closely monitor this situation moving forward.
I want to thank the families of those impacted for their patience and understanding as we worked through this situation.
Dr. Andy Ashley
