There is an amazing addition to the FARM, which is located at the North Little Rock Middle School campus!
School leaders, along with Baldwin & Shell, Pinnacle Structures, and various subcontractors, cut the ribbon to officially open the new storage building.  
The structure will be used to store animal feed and gardening tools. It will also serve as shelter for animals during inclement weather.
This project is a culmination of a community effort.  After thieves broke into a building adjacent to the FARM and stole equipment valued at $5,000, many parents and community members stepped in to help. 







The countdown is on for the 2024-2025 school year! Classes begin  August 19.
Sophia Newby, a sixth grader at North Little Rock Middle School, has some advice that she wants to share with all of the students in the NLRSD.
