On Friday, rising 9th and 10th graders had the opportunity to tour our high school and better understand each of our CTE pathways, other electives, and academic options offered. Students were able to hear from teachers and current students to learn about which pathway is right for them! With course selection decisions right around the corner, this was a great experience for our students! Ask your 8th or 9th grader what they enjoyed! 🧑‍💻👩‍🏭👩‍💼👨‍🍳👩‍🌾👩‍⚕️👨‍🏫👩‍🎨

Exciting things happening during conferences in February! Save the Dates! ✨

If you have a current 6th-11th grader interested in trying out for junior high or high school cheer, they have to have a physical completed before tryouts!

This week, we honor the dedication and invaluable contributions of our school counselors. Sponsored by the American School Counselor Association (ASCA), National School Counseling Week highlights the crucial role counselors play in guiding students toward academic success, personal growth, and future career readiness. School counselors do so much more than guide students through academic challenges—they are essential to the well-being of our students, providing support that extends far beyond the classroom. From teaching vital life skills to offering individual guidance, our counselors help shape the future of Pea Ridge students every day. Join us in celebrating our incredible school counselors: Pea Ridge Primary School: Kelsey Brodie Pea Ridge Intermediate School: Madi Holliday Pea Ridge Middle School: Megan Harness Pea Ridge Junior High School: Sarah Msall & Charley Robbins Pea Ridge High School: Paige Edwards & Kati Race

Did you know that February is CTE Month? Every February, the Career Technical Education (CTE) community celebrates CTE Month® to raise awareness of the role that CTE has in readying learners for college and career success. We are thankful for our CTE educators who work hard to ensure students are college and career-ready! Are you familiar with our CTE pathways? If you aren’t familiar with our district options for CTE courses, please visit our website https://www.pearidgek12.com/o/prhs and click on “Academics” to see a detailed overview of each of our programs of study. Do you know what a CTSO is? Career and Technical Student Organizations (CTSOs), which are led by our CTE teachers and tie directly to their programs of study, provide students with a range of benefits including developing leadership skills, enhancing technical knowledge, building professional networks, exploring career paths, boosting self-esteem, and gaining real-world experience through competitions and community engagement, ultimately preparing them for further education and the workforce. Support our CTSOs and help students attend State & National Competitions Four of our programs have partnered together to raise money to support student competition fees for state and (potentially) national competitions. We cannot thank our community enough for the support you have provided! But if you haven’t seen this yet, and would like to donate, any amount donated is greatly appreciated! All money raised is helping fund our HOSA (medical) DECA (business) Skills USA (graphic design) and FCCLA (culinary) programs. We are almost to our goal of $25k! Woah! 🤩 #CTEMonth #PRSD https://myteamfundraiser.com/account/?ST=SX1772sF&T=DHBlTo2L

By the end of the first semester less than 1% of our students were missing or deficient in immunizations. The nursing team was awarded The 2024 Outstanding Childhood Immunization Award presented by ImmunizeAR, recognizing excellence in childhood vaccination efforts. ImmunizeAR is a non-profit organization committed to improving immunization rates through education, advocacy, and state-wide partnerships.
