Dear Parents and Teachers,
We need your help, please!
The Scottie Parent Group fundraiser date is Sunday, April 17th ( Easter) We understand this is an inconvenient date for a fundraiser, but we do not get to select the date. If we do not participate, we will not be put into the pool for fundraising next year. That is why we are asking you to help us fill the remaining slots so that no one person has to volunteer all day. Thank you so much for those of you who have already signed up! We appreciate you.
*Time slots still needing to be filled: 12:00-2:00, and 2:00- 5:00 (can make this one 2-4 if that's more convenient).
Please email Carrie Freeman at cafreeman@es.k12.ar.us or call 479-253-8704 and leave a message if you are able to volunteer a couple of hours of your time.
Thank you!
Carrie Freeman
Mandy Elsey


Students were all smiles yesterday while visiting with Miss Arkansas, Whitney Williams. What a wonderful way to wrap up Youth Art Month and Music in Our Schools Month! Thank you to our community, staff, and administration for their continued support of fine arts in our schools and to Whitney for sharing your heart for the arts with Eureka Springs students.




3rd and 4th grade testing information is attached.

Eureka Springs School Superintendent Pruitt, Elementary Principal Haozous, and teachers were honored to meet with Susan Jobe, DESE Assistant Director of Special Projects, regarding support of the PLC work happening at ESES. Jobe visited the school this week to see the collaborative work in action. She offered insight and professional development opportunities to ensure this work continues to better serve our students in growth and achievement.
