The Lady Lions will be playing in the 4A Softball State Finals Friday, May 19th, at 4:00pm in Conway, Arkansas on the campus of UCA. 🥎 ALL tickets must be purchased digitally at gofan.co.

As we come to the end of the school year, we have several students across the district that have outstanding lunch balances. Parents, please check your child's lunch balance here: https://www.ezschoolpay.com/Login.aspx
At each campus, we have a Care account where community members can donate money that will be applied to these unpaid lunch balances. It helps to reduce the debt to the student and family. There are several ways you can contribute if you feel led: cash & checks (make checks out to 'Gravette School Food Service" - drop all donations off at the school’s front office and mention it's for the care account) or get in touch with Food Service Director, Sheila, at 479-787-4100 ext. 1101.
Together since Kindergarten ♥ Congrats seniors!
