🎭💙 Community Support in Action! 💙🎭
Today, our Pea Ridge High School Theater Department was honored to receive a generous $500 donation from the Pea Ridge Police Department to help offset costs for upcoming performances.
Sergeant Day shared that the funds were raised by members of the PRPD, who are continually looking for meaningful ways to stay engaged and involved in the community. They were proud to contribute these proceeds to support our students as they prepare for their next production.
Theater Director Mrs. Elmore expressed her sincere appreciation for the continued encouragement and support from the community. She shared how much it means to see others recognize the growth, dedication, and momentum of the theater program as it continues to expand and excel.
We also want to recognize freshman Leah Henson, who advocated on behalf of the theater department and made the initial request that led to this contribution. Her initiative and leadership made a real difference.
It was a joyful and encouraging day for our theater students and staff. We are grateful for the Pea Ridge Police Department and the positive partnership they maintain with our school district. 💙
