🤝 Gravette High School FFA students recently installed new Blessing Boxes at two locations in our area. This project expands local access to essential resources and utilizes a $1,200 National FFA Living to Serve Grant awarded to the chapter last fall.
Students in our agriculture mechanics classes applied their technical skills to design and construct these structures for placement at the First Christian Church of Gravette and Sulphur Springs City Park. These units are now active and ready for use by anyone in the region who requires assistance. The chapter is now launching a collection campaign for non-perishable goods and canned foods to ensure these pantries remain stocked for the public.
Community members may contribute to this effort by bringing donations to Mr. Malott or Ms. Macleod at the high school or by placing items directly into the boxes. We are grateful for the opportunity to serve our area through the hard work of our students. 🦁🧡 #LionPride #GravetteSchools

🚓 Local Community Police Departments, including Gravette, Highfill, and Bella Vista, came together today to share the Christmas cheer with a group of wonderful Gravette kids for the 10th Annual "Shop With a Cop."
The morning began in the Gravette Upper Elementary cafeteria, where Resource Officer Crane surprised everyone in a festive light-up holiday suit that immediately had the children laughing. After officers drew names to find their partners, the pairs boarded a bus for a police-escorted caravan to the store. The kids explored the aisles with their officers, choosing gifts that fit their interests, from cameras and electronics to new toys and favorite accessories.
Following the shopping trip, the group traveled to the Civic Center where officers served a lunch of pizza, juice, and cookies. This meal was generously donated by the Phillips 66 Gravette Station, a strong supporter of Gravette Schools.
The kids showed thoughtful, steady character throughout the day. Even with the excitement of the season, they approached each moment with gratitude, asking politely for a single cookie when more were offered. We are proud of the character these young Lions displayed and thankful for the community fundraisers and private donors who make this program possible. Thank you most of all to the officers who protect our community each day and still set aside time to share holiday cheer with kids and families. 🦁🧡 #LionPride #GravetteSchools
🩺 Students from Mrs. Hilger's medical terminology class and Mrs. Schaffer's anatomy and physiology class traveled to Missouri Southern State University in Joplin for an immersive lesson. This trip allowed our high schoolers to engage with advanced technology and deepen their understanding of the human body.
Dr. Sherry Whiteman led a session on the cardiovascular system, giving the group hands-on access to an Anatomage machine. This technology simulates a virtual cadaver, allowing the class to examine intricate anatomical details that are usually reserved for university settings. It provides a level of realism that textbooks simply cannot match.
The visit concluded with a knowledge competition where Ian Nelson, Lauryn Taylor, Amylia Vang, and James McNaughton secured the "heavyweight belt" by answering the most questions correctly. Thank you Mrs. Hilger and Mrs. Schaffer for coordinating this trip and helping our aspiring medical professionals see what lies ahead in their education. And thank you to Mrs. Hilger for sharing the story and photos from the trip!🦁🧡 #LionPride #GravetteSchools

💯 Gravette High School will be awarded over $29,700 in reward money after earning a Top 10% ranking in Arkansas for academics. This achievement, based on spring 2025 ATLAS testing, included the highest Biology scores in the region from our 9th and 10th graders.
"I'm just really proud of our students. We're proud of their hard work all year long, and while they aren't defined by one test score, it's nice to see them be so successful," said Alison Schaffer GHS Biology Teacher
Gravette is one of only 15 public high schools in the state to receive this performance-based reward. The high school's academic rank in the top 10% places it significantly ahead of the district's relative size.
“What I'm most proud of is the recognition that I know our staff deserves,” said Principal Shannon Mitchell, “I am proud of our school letter grade, but that’s not always a good representation of what actually happens in a school. This state recognition is really powerful. It's the first time we have received that.”
This award is part of the Arkansas School Recognition Program, which distributes financial awards for high student performance. The funds, designated for schools in the "Top 6-10% Performance" category, will be reinvested into GHS academic programs.
“We will make the decision as a staff on how that money is used,” explained Mitchell, “We'll have representatives from each tested area to make sure we're using it in a way that's fair and also to celebrate this success."
This recognition is a strong validation of direct effort in the daily work of our staff and students. Achieving a top-tier state ranking and leading the region in Biology shows our students mastery of complex material. Congratulations to our teachers for their high-level instruction and to our 9th and 10th graders for their disciplined effort. Go Lions! 🦁🧡 #LionPride #GravetteSchools

🎨 Gravette High School has announced the winners of its recent art contest. Students and staff voted during the week of October 27th for their favorite pieces from a gallery of work submitted by the school's artists.
🥇 Congratulations to senior Gwyneth Henzie, who earned two awards: First Place and the People's Choice Award. Her first-place illustration, created with colored pencil, depicts a young man split between a Roman soldier and a modern teen, featuring precise detail and bright blue and yellow shading.
🥈Senior Kristyn Henzie took Second Place with a colored pencil piece showing a woman firing a bow and arrow, noted for its convincing perspective and detailed hair.
🥉Third Place went to senior Katherine King for her symbolism-rich illustration, which uses deep reds and a disorienting perspective with a central staircase and exit sign.
🏅 Tenth-grader Katherine Quintana earned Fourth Place for her detailed illustration of a woman looking aside. The piece achieves complex shading by incorporating blues and purples into skin tones and texturing different materials like fabric, hair, and metal.
The competition, organized by art teacher Mollie Hendrick, showcased the technical skill and creativity developing within our art program. Recognition goes to all the young artists who participated. Congratulations to the winners! All of Gravette is looking forward to seeing your work displayed in the District Art Show next Spring. 🦁🧡 #LionPride #GravetteSchools
