Thanks to a generous partnership with Net Generation, all K-5 students at Boone Park Elementary completed a 6 week introduction to tennis. For many students this was their first time holding a racquet, and by the end of the unit, 4th and 5th grade students were rallying across the net! They also studied tennis professionals such as Arthur Ashe and Serena Williams, and participated in a Q&A Skype session with a local tennis professional. It was a such a success in our Physical Education program, Coach McColey agreed to offer after-school tennis clinics for interested students in Spring 2019. Thank you, Net Generation for investing in our students!

North Little Rock High School received a bomb threat at approximately 3:02pm. The building has been evacuated. Students and staff will not re-enter the building until it has been cleared by Emergency Responders. Dismissal will be at the regular time.
Kindergarten students at Amboy Elementary in Mrs. Dellinger's class created spooky castles. Students learned about 2 and 3D shapes, working as a group, and writing about their projects. Students presented their creations and findings to their family members. One creation had an elevator and garage. What a fun learning project!
Recently, the North Little Rock Board of Education selected Hannah Chambers to fill the vacated Zone 5 member's position. As part of this process, the Board sought legal advice from the Arkansas School Board Association, in accordance with previous circumstances similar to this situation.
After seeking further clarification, the Arkansas School Board Association determined their previous stance was incorrect and advised the North Little Rock Board of Education to rescind their selection of Hannah Chambers.
Immediately upon notification from legal counsel, the North Little Rock Board of Education called a meeting and rescinded their selection and will begin the Zone 5 selection process as outlined in the Arkansas Educational Statute 6-13-611 section (c).
The North Little Rock Board of Education received an apology from the Arkansas State Board Association for giving inaccurate information in regards to the appointment and zone residence.

North Little Rock School District received information about a possible threat to a school. This is based on an Instagram and Facebook message that references a threat to “North”. The North Little Rock Police have notified us that within the last couple of days in the Midwest region of the country, parents and students had been receiving messages from the same number about a threat. The locations were schools with “North” in their name. After investigation, authorities found that the threats were not credible.
