Parents, Please make sure you are sending your child to school with a mask daily. Unfortunately, we do not have any more masks to give out. Thank you for your support with this concern. Thank you in advance, Mr. Pennington Padres, Asegúrese de enviar a su hijo a la escuela con una máscara todos los días. Desafortunadamente, no tenemos más máscaras para repartir. Gracias por su apoyo con esta preocupación. Gracias de antemano, Sr. Pennington

Attention Parents, The North Little Rock School District has issued a mask mandate. We have several students arriving without masks. We need your help to ensure that your child comes to school daily with a mask. It is also important for them to wear it correctly by covering the mouth and nose for everyone's safety. Thank you, Mr. Pennington
