Welcome back, Little Rock School District students and staff! 🍎✏️✨ A new year of learning, growth, and success starts today. Let’s make this school year one to remember!
Dear Little Rock Community:
We have been made aware of a flyer advertising a “youth celebrity basketball game” on Saturday, August 17th at Little Rock Southwest Magnet High School. This event was not authorized by school administration and will not be taking place on campus. We appreciate the enthusiasm and support from our community, but we must ensure that all events are properly coordinated and approved to maintain the safety and well-being of all who attend.
LRSD remains committed to partnering with our community for use of district facilities under appropriate circumstances to foster a safe and positive environment for everyone. Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
Tomorrow the Little Rock Southwest High Marching Band (S3) will preform live at the Little Rock Amphitheater 11:30am
Gryphons, Reminder!
Monday we will start our dress code:
No Crop Tops
No Pajama Pants or Tops
No Slides or Slippers
