Thank you to Walmart store #128 on Parker Road for the $700 Community Grant. It will be used to create a teen lounge in Ms. Connie Givens's classroom. We also received a $1000 Community Grant from store #45 on Highland Drive. That grant is for Mrs. Rebeka Fisher's Sensory Glow Up project. We appreciate the support from our Walmart stores. By the way, Chester Cheetah is a Bay Alum, Travis Smith.
Next week is homecoming week. Attached is a flyer for the dress up days. Let's show our school spirit!

This week is School Bus Safety Week. Please be respectful of school busses as they transport our students. There is always confusion about when you must stop. The image below comes from the Arkansas Driver's License Manual. Help us keep our students safe.

Parent-Teacher Conferences are Thursday, October 19th, from 3:00-7:00 pm. School will dismiss at 2:00 that day.

WHAT'S HAPPENING IN THE DISTRICT
This is a message to Mrs. Carmer from the Food Bank of Northeast Arkansas:
Sherry,
I just wanted to say thank you for the generous donation of bowls for Empty Bowls. Your students' work is incredible, and your efforts truly embody the spirit of what it means to be the change we wish to see in NEA. With the money raised and some last-minute donations that came in, we will be able to provide 151,900 meals to our neighbors in need. Your support has played an important role in our event’s success and encourages our continued commitment to reaching our goal of providing hunger relief here in Northeast Arkansas.
Sincerely,
Jordan
