Dear Parents/Guardians,
We hope that you are doing well and staying safe. Although none of us have experienced a pandemic before, the North Little Rock Middle School 7th/8th grade family is here to support you.
Our teachers are working hard to reach all of our parents and students to make sure they are doing good, and able to login or work on the AMI and Virtual Learning Platform. If your contact information has changed then please call 501-771-8200, or you can use the link that can be found on our website https://www.nlrsd.org/o/middle-school-7-8 to update your information.
Thank you!
