Congratulations to Ridge Road Elementary School on receiving a $5,000 donation from Burlington and AdoptAClassroom to support classrooms and students! The announcement came at the grand opening Friday morning at the new Burlington store, located at 4122 E. McCain.

Five lucky teachers will be provided $1,000 each to use on classroom supplies.

Beginning next school year, Seventh Street Elementary School will be named North Little Rock 6 Academy of Agricultural and Veterinary Sciences!

The name change is a nod to the six black teenagers who tried to integrate NLRHS in the fall of 1957.

THV11 interviewed Dr. Pilewski about the name change. Click on the link below to watch the story.

Here's a reminder regarding the Summer Electronic Benefits Program.

Families must complete an application through the Department of Human Services (DHS) to see if they are eligible to receive the Summer EBT benefits, which is $120 per eligible child. The application can be found at the link below, or households may pick up an application at any DHS county office. The completed application MUST be returned to the county DHS office or emailed to the Summer EBT Email at SummerEBT@dhs.arkansas.gov by the DHS deadline of August 26, 2024.

For questions about the Summer EBT program, please contact DHS at the following address: SummerEBT@dhs.arkansas.gov.

Neither the Arkansas Department of Education nor the North Little Rock School District is NOT involved in the distribution of the Summer EBT benefits. The Department of Human Services is the only agency who can answer any questions regarding the benefits.
