🇺🇸 Gravette School District is asking families with an active or inactive military member to complete a brief survey.
🔗 Survey for Military Families: https://forms.gle/dj5SzdsDo9a9KP2XA
Providing this information allows the school and state to better support military families in our community. Participation is completely optional, and your personal details remain confidential. Identifying military families now may also lead to a second, shorter survey from the state later on.
Thank you to the military members in our community for your service. 🦁🧡 #LionPride #GravetteSchools

Submit one application per household online or pick up a paper copy at any school office. All Arkansas public school students receive one free breakfast daily, while lunch benefits depend on household size and income. Children covered by Arkansas Medicaid or Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits qualify automatically, though families must still submit the application form. Until you receive an eligibility notification letter in the mail, plan to provide a lunch or lunch money for your child. Completing this application helps maintain district funding and keeps healthy meals accessible to students during the school day.
Submit your form today to ensure continuous meal coverage for your student. Thank you for supporting our school nutrition programs and helping our students stay focused and ready to learn. 🦁🧡 #LionPride #GravetteSchools

Under her leadership, our Future Health Professionals club celebrated some major achievements last year. Forty-two lions represented Gravette at the state leadership conference, where sixteen competitors earned top-three finishes to qualify for international competition. The team more than tripled its award count from the previous year; demonstrating advanced healthcare knowledge and clinical skills.
Future Health Professionals organized a record-breaking blood drive last year that achieved 120 percent of its collection goal for the Community Blood Center of the Ozarks. The group also organized and hosted a school-wide pickleball tournament, raising $1,000 for local mental health services at the Ozark Guidance Center.
Here is what 7 Brew Coffee shared along with the recognition:
"Through service, leadership, and a commitment to others, 7 Brew Heroes embody what it means to Cultivate Kindness™ and make a lasting impact. As students head back to school, we're especially grateful for the educators who live out those values every day, investing in the next generation and helping young people discover what they're capable of.
This month, we're honored to recognize Mrs. Robin Hilger as our August 7 Brew Hero. As a medical science teacher and HOSA advisor at Gravette High School, Mrs. Hilger has spent years pouring into the lives of her students both inside and outside the classroom. Her classroom became a place where students could find encouragement, guidance, and someone who genuinely believed in them. Through her leadership, countless students have pursued careers in healthcare, carrying forward the same spirit of service and compassion she modeled for them.
Beyond preparing students for HOSA competitions and careers in medicine, Mrs. Hilger has empowered them to make a difference in their community through annual blood drives, creating a ripple effect that reaches far beyond the school walls. Her impact can be seen not only in the lives she has touched directly, but also in the future nurses, doctors, caregivers, and healthcare professionals she has inspired along the way.
We're proud to celebrate Mrs. Hilger and the many educators whose dedication, kindness, and belief in their students continue to change lives every day. To thank her for the incredible difference she's made, we're honored to recognize her with $500 and free drinks for a year."
Thank you to Mrs. Hilger for guiding these students and providing strong leadership in our medical science program. We appreciate 7 Brew for supporting local educators who invest in our community and we look forward to the ways HOSA will continue to improve health and wellness in Gravette. 🦁🧡 #LionPride #GravetteSchools

🤝 Gravette High School held a student organization showcase today to give students a preview of school clubs and extracurricular activities. The fair was a demonstration of additional paths for building practical skills, exploring career options, and forming new connections with like-minded peers.
Future Business Leaders of America, Technology Student Association, and Future Farmers of America outlined hands-on projects and competitions. Future Health Professionals and Family, Career and Community Leaders of America also shared ways for students to begin developing workforce skills.
National Honor Society, Student Council, and Junior Fire Marshals highlighted community service projects planned for the school year. Meanwhile, Quiz Bowl and Key Club offered ways for students to build academic knowledge and leadership habits.
Members of Art Club, Drama Club, and Environmental Club showed off past activities and upcoming projects. Stream Team and Fishing Club highlighted outdoor activities, while Fellowship of Christian Athletes welcomed students looking for peer fellowship.
Club involvement can provide students hands-on competition experience and service hours that strengthen college applications and job resumes. Most importantly, joining an organization helps our Lions connect with peers who share similar interests and establishes a new sense of belonging at school.
