In honor of Teacher Appreciation Day and Week, the Campus Beautification Club created photo props for teachers and partnered with Foote Party Rentals & Events to receive a free floral wall rental to create a stunning photo booth to commemorate the day.
Our math department also honored Mr. Patterson this week on National Principals' Day. Leading a high school is no easy task, but the teachers are thankful to have him at the helm!
We can't thank our teachers and administrators enough for their hard work, dedication, and love for our students! You can show them some love as well by clicking on the link below and sending them a message of appreciation!

We are proud to announce that several of Ms. Fuller's students have recently successfully completed their ACT WorkKeys assessments!
ACT WorkKeys aims to assess and develop essential skills needed for workplace success. Scholars are tested in the areas of applied math, graphic literacy and workplace documents, and certificates are issued at four levels: Platinum, Gold, Silver and Bronze. Successful completion of specific WorkKeys assessments can lead to earning the National Career Readiness Certificate (NCRC), a credential that validates essential skills across industries and occupations. ACT WorkKeys also offers a job profiling service that helps employers identify the specific skills required for various jobs.
Congratulations to these students for their hard work! #ElevatingExcellence

Students in the law pathway at Mills University Studies High and ACADEMY Ambassadors participated in a mock trial at UA-Little Rock Bowen School of Law. Students heard from the prosecutor, defense attorney, and testimony from witnesses. Some students participated as the jury and were allowed to render the verdict. "Not Guilty." What a great experience for these students.
