Such a GREAT morning at the Barnhill Arena! 🎓 To our 2025 graduates, your journey is just beginning. We couldn't be more proud and remember.....once a Panther, ALWAYS a Panther! 🥳 #PantherNation











This morning, we witnessed something truly special—the very first Panther Spirit Walk! 🐾 One of the most heartwarming moments? Our seniors and kindergarten students walked arm in arm down the court, symbolizing the journey from beginning to end. As they reached the center, seniors passed on a “paw” filled with well wishes to our kindergarteners, marking the start of a beautiful tradition and the passing of the Panther torch.
💻 Missed it in person? No worries! You can catch all the action on the Northside Facebook page, where the event was streamed live. Go check it out and relive the moment! #PantherNation

📚✨ Plan Ahead for Back to School! ✨📚
We know the current school year isn’t over just yet, but we’re already looking ahead and getting excited for what’s to come! 🐾 Make sure to mark your calendars for our Open Houses in August! These special events are your chance to meet the principals, tour the buildings, and learn more about what the new school year holds. Whether you're new to our schools or returning, Open House is a great way to start the year off strong. #PantherNation







Just a reminder! The Free Physical for high school students is NEXT MONDAY. Mark your calendars!



🎉It’s Move-Up Week in the Panther community! 🎉 Our 8th graders are spending time at the high school, getting a preview of what’s ahead as they prepare to become freshmen next year. Meanwhile, later this week, our 6th graders will tour the middle school to ease some of those nerves and get a feel for their future classrooms and hallways.
A huge thank you to our counselors, teachers, and administrators for making these visits possible. Because of your efforts, students are heading into their next chapter with a little more confidence and a lot more excitement! 🖤 #PantherNation

🎉 Big celebrations and heartfelt goodbyes filled the room during last night’s board meeting! 🎉 We kicked off the evening with Paws & Claws 6th grade student Faith leading us in the Pledge of Allegiance—way to go, Faith! Then, in a surprise moment, our friends from the AAEA honored Maintenance Director Randall Bolinger as Arkansas' School Plant Manager of the Year for 2025! What a well-deserved recognition! 🛠️🏆 Next up, we spotlighted the incredible accomplishments of our Middle School Technology Student Association, whose innovation and hard work are making us proud! We then celebrated our Teachers of the Year, whose passion and dedication shape the future of our students each day. 🍎✨ Finally, we said goodbye to Board President Travis Jackson, as last night was his last board meeting. We are deeply grateful for his diligent service, steady leadership, and unwavering commitment to our district.
Thank you to everyone who made the evening one to remember! 🐾 #PantherNation

From early-morning prep to lunchtime chaos, they do it all with kindness and heart. THANK YOU for showing up for our kids in ways that go far beyond the kitchen. You make a difference more than you know, and we’re so grateful you’re part of the Panther Nation. ❤️
