The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) is conducting a needs assessment to better understand the unmet behavioral and mental health needs of students in Arkansas (ages 12 and older). Through surveys and focus groups, UAMS hopes to learn more about current barriers to accessing care from all stakeholders, most importantly that of families and students themselves. Your expertise and perspective will be invaluable to plans moving forward. The results of this survey will provide UAMS and state partners with the information needed to develop plans to better meet the needs of youth and families in Arkansas. Please see the attached flyer for the survey link. Thank you!

Crossett School District is implementing SchoolPass, a program to aid our high school students and parents in checking out and checking in students using the student ID or parent Pin. Today a call went out by mistake notifying elementary and middle school parents about this program. We are sorry for this inconvenience. This program will only be implmented in our high school at this time.
