๐จ Sylvee (3rd Grade)
Sylvee created a light blue sky with a small sun and rolling green hills filled with individual blades of grass. Her superhero wears a dark gray and black suit with a bright red cape.
๐จ Crosby (4th Grade)
Crosby added a red banner behind the โSafe Rides, Everyday Heroesโ message. A yellow bus travels along a gray road beside green hills, while the superhero wears a light blue suit with a red cape and boots.
๐จ Skyler (5th Grade)
Skyler used bold colors, placing a deep yellow bus on a black road against vivid green hills. Custom blue wind swirls surround a superhero wearing a yellow chest piece, red cape, and pink-red leggings.
At home, families can help children practice the SAFE routine every morning:
1) Stay at least ten feetโfive giant stepsโaway from the curb.
2) Always wait for the bus to stop completely and the bus driver to signal itโs safe to board.
3) Face forward after finding a seat on the bus.
4) Exit the bus after it stops, wait for the bus driver to signal itโs safe to cross, and then look left-right-left for cars before crossing a street in front of the bus, never behind.
Way to go Sylvee, Crosby, and Skyler! Thank you to all Gravette Upper Elementary families for helping us keep our student routes safe throughout the year. ๐ฆ๐งก #LionPride #GravetteSchools
๐ Online Survey: https://www.leaderinme.com/s/gravette-upper-elementary-ar/families
Leader in Me uses Sean Covey's book, The 7 Habits of Happy Kids, to teach positive life skills and personal responsibility. Students learn skills that guide them to take responsibility for their choices. They practice setting personal goals, prioritizing tasks, and managing their time. Children also learn to resolve disagreements through active listening and mutual respect. Gathering feedback from every caregiver helps school teams strengthen these learning practices across all grades.
If you're unable to fill out the survey before Parent Teacher Conferences, devices will be available at the school for anyone on those days. Thank you for partnering with our staff to build strong student leaders and a strong school community. ๐ฆ๐งก #LionPride #GravetteSchools

In 3rd through 5th grade, physical education transitions from open exploration into real structure, strategy, and skill development. Students move beyond basic movement to learn official rules, field positioning, and sport mechanics. Guiding our students through this foundational stage requires energetic leadership like Coach Ellis and Coach Shields. It is their very first year at Gravette Upper Elementary, and the kids already love them!
We extend our sincere appreciation to our Gravette Upper Elementary coaching staff:
๐ Lizzy Ellis, Volleyball and Softball Assistant Coach
๐ Hayden Shields, Boys Basketball Assistant Coach

Director of Maintenance and Transportation Richard Carver and Administrative Assistant Melissa White took time to travel to Upper for both shifts to deliver personalized mini trash cans filled with favorite treats and beverages. The note said "We'd be a mess without you!"
Before a single lesson is taught, a book is opened, or a goal is achieved, our school relies on a clean and orderly space. Mr. Brian, Miss Ruth, and Mr. Ray set the stage for every success. Our students learn more every day how to best respect their shared spaces and take responsibility for what they leave behind. For everything else, we extend our gratitude to our custodians for maintaining the healthy environment our students need to thrive. ๐ฆ๐งก #LionPride #GravetteSchools

Gravette School District recently received our state assigned school grades. The district had a great academic year highlighted by each school receiving the grade of a B, with an improvement of a whole letter grade in some buildings. This marks the best school year performance for the district since the state's grade card system began in 2014. We are incredibly proud of our staff, students and our families working together to improve outcomes for Gravette students.
Thank you for supporting our students as we continue building on this achievement. ๐ฆ๐งก #LionPride #GravetteSchools
