We are very pleased to announce that the Arkansas Division of Elementary and Secondary Education informed the Searcy School District that the USDA waiver to feed all students for free has been extended until the end of the 2020-2021 school year. All students in the Searcy School District will receive breakfast and lunch at no cost.

Students in Sra. Jessica Martin's Spanish classes participated in Christmas caroling virtually this year and even included family and friends! Watch a sample of those carols here! https://flipgrid.com/+martin6245

We want to commend our students and staff members for continuing to be diligent about wearing masks. Upon our return from Christmas break, Searcy School District will provide an additional cloth mask for all students and staff members. We want to remind our families that cloth masks should be washed twice weekly at a minimum to reduce the spread of Covid-19 or other germs. With the upswing of additional Covid-19 cases, we ask that our families please take precautions during the holiday break, so we can try to limit our number of positive cases within our school district when we return to school. We realize this is a difficult time for all, and we greatly appreciate the support and adherence to the health guidelines.

This message is to inform parents that the Searcy School District Home Access Center (HAC) will be down from December 20 through December 28th for maintenance purposes. You will not be able to view your student’s grades during this time period. Thank you.
