NAESC's local lead team is conducting an early childhood family and community survey. We believe lifelong learning begins before kindergarten that is why we are seeking ways to support the needs of north central Arkansas' youngest learners. This short survey is for all residents of Fulton, Izard, Sharp, and Stone counties. Please take it and share with your family and friends. https://forms.gle/QD9Yz1Yfayp1eMsQ7

On Tuesday, April 1, 2025, NAESC hosted a STEM event for schools that are a part of our educational cooperative. Schools brought teams made up of no more than 4 students per team. Students had to work as a team and solve as many challenges as possible to earn points throughout the day. Challenges included problem solving, decoding and encoding, encryption, and even physical challenges. At the end of the day, the teams that earned the most points would capture the flag to win the event. This years top three teams included ICC High School-1st place, Timbo High School-2nd place, and Highland High School -3rd place.

Mandy Blevins, Systems Coordinator, visited Viola High School to support their work on assessment strategies. During her visit, students were engaged in group activities centered on guiding questions about photosynthesis. The focus was on incorporating a range of Depth of Knowledge (DOK) levels to enhance the rigor and ensure comprehensive coverage of each standard.

We had an inspiring time at the PLC Institute in Rogers, Arkansas! Through interactive keynotes, we explored how to build an effective intervention system by focusing on the four key elements of a successful RTI model: collective responsibility, concentrated instruction, convergent assessment, and certain access. Mountain View and Mountain Home School Districts were in attendance for this engaging learning experience!
