❤️ Gravette Middle School Builders Club members recently created handmade Valentine cards for patients and staff at Ozark Community Hospital. Supplies for this heartfelt project were funded through profits from the club’s sponsored dances. During several RTI sessions, students designed and wrote each card to share a little extra kindness with their neighbors at the hospital.
The Builders Club raises its own funds through community events and reinvests those resources into local service projects. By organizing and leading these efforts, our Lions build leadership skills, creativity, and resourcefulness while helping the community.
As an affiliate of Kiwanis International, the Builders Club helps prepare students for the Gravette High School Key Club through service-centered initiatives like this one. Great job to all GMS students who helped make this project possible! 🦁🧡 #LionPride #GravetteSchools

💯 We have a HUGE number of students that were recognized today for making the A/B and A Honor Rolls. These Gravette Middle School seventh graders were acknowledged during the Lion Pride Assembly for demonstrating mastery of their subjects and focus throughout the semester.
Because education begins and ends at home, credit for the success of these students should be shared with the Gravette families who provide daily support and guidance. Our teachers offer excellent instruction, but parents establish the habits that allow learning to stick. We thank the families who take an active role in the development of their young Lions.
Great work to this group and their teachers! They have proven they understand the value of academic discipline and are building the growth mindset necessary for the paths ahead. We expect to see an even bigger crowd in this photo next semester. 🦁🧡 #LionPride #GravetteSchools
