Day One of the 15-Day Challenge set the tone for excellence as our dedicated teachers jumped in with energy and focus. From the very start, they demonstrated a strong commitment to ensuring high levels of learning for every student. Through purposeful collaboration, strategic planning, and a results-driven mindset, our educators laid the foundation for impactful instruction and student success. Their hard work and enthusiasm on day one exemplify the power of teamwork and a shared vision for achievement.
NEW ARKANSAS LAW: "Bell to Bell, No Cell" Starting with the 2025-2026 school year, all Arkansas public schools - including Crossett School District - will enforce the "Bell to Bell, No Cell" Act (SB 142/Act 122).
What's Changing?
* Personal cell phones, smartwatches, tablets, laptop, and any device that sends/receives data must stay powered off and stored all day.
* Students cannot be in possession of these devices. The devices must be stored in a backpack or purse all day while on campus.
What does in possession include:
* Holding the device
* Carrying it in a pocket or on their person
* Checking the device while stored in a backpack or purse at any time during the school day.
Why?
This state law supports focused, distraction-free learning. Schools not enforcing it may face penalties.
How Families Can Help:
* Talk with your child about expectations.
* Support a smooth transition to device-free learning.
