Preliminary Results Show Significant Gains on ACT Aspire
Preliminary results from the ACT Aspire show that eight out 13 schools in the North Little Rock School District showed an increase in achievement for English Language Arts and math!
ACT Aspire results account for 35% of a school’s letter grade. Other variables, such as attendance, students’ reading proficiency levels, graduation rate, etc., are all factors that are calculated to determine a school’s letter grade. School letter grades are expected to be released in the fall.
Young Actors Audition for Frozen
Some people are worth melting for. These talented 4th-8th grade students spent the afternoon singing, dancing, and acting with the North Little Rock High School Theatre Arts Department! They all did a GREAT JOB auditioning for young roles in FROZEN! The future is bright!!! We were blown away by their enthusiasm, talent, and energy!!!
