Today is Glenview 's Book Character Day! Look how fabulous our teachers look!
Amboy Elem celebrated dads and important men in their students' lives at breakfast. It was great to start the day off with a smile.
How exciting school can be when the project you have been working on actually works.?! 1st grade students from Amboy Elementary have been exploring the concept of buoyancy with the engineering design challenge of building a boat from clay that can float and hold paper clips. It worked!!! #AmboySTEM
North Little Rock High School received a bomb threat at approximately 3:02pm. The building has been evacuated. Students and staff will not re-enter the building until it has been cleared by Emergency Responders. Dismissal will be at the regular time.
Kindergarten students at Amboy Elementary in Mrs. Dellinger's class created spooky castles. Students learned about 2 and 3D shapes, working as a group, and writing about their projects. Students presented their creations and findings to their family members. One creation had an elevator and garage. What a fun learning project!
Recently, the North Little Rock Board of Education selected Hannah Chambers to fill the vacated Zone 5 member's position. As part of this process, the Board sought legal advice from the Arkansas School Board Association, in accordance with previous circumstances similar to this situation.
After seeking further clarification, the Arkansas School Board Association determined their previous stance was incorrect and advised the North Little Rock Board of Education to rescind their selection of Hannah Chambers.
Immediately upon notification from legal counsel, the North Little Rock Board of Education called a meeting and rescinded their selection and will begin the Zone 5 selection process as outlined in the Arkansas Educational Statute 6-13-611 section (c).
The North Little Rock Board of Education received an apology from the Arkansas State Board Association for giving inaccurate information in regards to the appointment and zone residence.
An event NOT to be missed! Chief Davis vs Chief Tucker at the DOGTOWN DERBY! GREAT way to spend a crisp, fall morning!
Congrats to Amboy Elementary for being one of fifteen schools/districts chosen to participate in the first Carnegie STEM Excellence Pathway program in the state!
We can't wait to see all of the exciting, learning projects the students will participate in through this opportunity. #AmboySTEM

Congratulations to Crestwood Elementary who has been named Best of the Best through the Arkansas Democrat Gazette. NLRHS was named a finalist in the High School Division.
7th Street students and staff enjoyed celebrating Book Character Day! It was a fun day to enjoy literacy.
NLR Academy students participated in a mock CSI Investigation at UALR.
The students walked through a mock crime scene where they gathered evidence, sampled results from a “lab”, interviewed suspects, and used sharp reasoning, observation, and critical thinking skills to determine the culprit!
The students had a great time.
