We want to thank Volcano Asian Bistro for generously providing food for our hardworking teachers during their after-school meeting today! 🍱 Full tummies = happy educators! 🙌💖 We are so grateful for your support and for making our day a little brighter (and tastier). #PantherNation #BetterTogether



🚍 TRANSPORTATION UPDATE ‼ Thank you for understanding! 🐾



Join us at Southside for Bingo Night on Nov. 21st at 5:30 pm! 🎉 This free, family-friendly event will have bingo, popcorn, and prizes. Don’t miss the fun! 🍿✨ #PantherNation #SSSE



UPDATE ‼ The immediate weather danger has passed and we will be resuming our regular scheduled bus routes at 4:45 pm. Students will load buses at the high school and be headed home. Parents, please be patient as our bus drivers will be driving with extra caution. Bus Routes will be an hour behind schedule. Thank you for understanding!


ATTENTION ‼ Several bus routes are currently sheltering at Siloam Springs High School and will continue to stay there until given the all-clear. Please do NOT come to pick up your child. Once it is safe, bus routes will continue as normal. We will give more updates as we gain additional information. Thank you!


Panther Nation, we want to assure you that we are closely monitoring the stormy weather conditions and are committed to the safety of our Panthers and staff. Your child's well-being is our top priority! Should there be any developments that require a change in our schedule, we will keep you updated promptly via text message/socials/our websites. If you do not receive any communication from us, please plan for a normal release schedule. Out of an abundance of caution, all after-school events are canceled. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. 🐾

BIG CONGRATS to Southside for being named a NATIONAL Unified Champion School 👏 What is a Unified Champion School, you may ask ❔ A Special Olympics Unified Champion School has an inclusive school climate. One that exhibits a sense of collaboration, engagement, and respect for all. A Unified Champion School receiving national banner recognition has demonstrated commitment to inclusion by meeting 10 national standards of excellence. These standards were developed by a national panel of leaders from the Special Olympics and the education community. #PantherNation

Just a reminder ‼ Last year's "Free & Reduced" applications are EXPIRING. If you previously qualified for "Free & Reduced" meals, you WILL need to re-apply to keep that free or reduced meal price for your child/children. Click here to apply: https://secure.ezmealapp.com/ApplicationScreen.aspx
Did you know that if your child is a Junior or Senior in HS and they qualify for "Free & Reduced" meals they can take their ACT Test for free underneath the "Free Waiver Program"?? That much more of a reason to see if your family qualifies! Check out the FAQs attached to this post for more info.
