Next week is Red Ribbon Week.
We are proud to announce that School of the 21st Century completed the Parents as Teachers National Center Quality Endorsement & Improvement Process and earned the highest designation: Blue Ribbon Affiliate status. Parents as Teachers provides early childhood organizations and professionals with information and tools that are innovative, relevant, and widely applicable to today's parents, families and children.
The Paragould School District has received an Emergency School Pantry and Food Box Program Grant Award in the amount of $25,000! This grant is administered by the Arkansas Food Bank in partnership with the six regional food banks. The purpose of the program is to provide additional food assistance to low income families with children. There will be at least one special food box distribution per week. The food from this program is meant for all family members, not just the children. The Paragould School District is excited about this awesome opportunity to serve our students and their families!
