Our SHMS FBLA students showed what the season is really about. 💙🎄
Our FBLA group helped collect toys across campus, and on Friday evening our officer team and advisors had the honor of delivering them to Arkansas Children’s Hospital during their annual Festival of Stars.
Seeing our students give their time and hearts to bring a little joy to children and families during the holidays was something special. We are so proud of their leadership, generosity, and commitment to serving others.
Way to represent SHMS with kindness and Christmas spirit. 🎁✨

🎓✨ Another huge SHMS celebration! ✨🎓
Please help us congratulate Mr. Robert Watson on earning his Master of Education in Curriculum and Instruction – Administration! This is a major accomplishment and one that speaks directly to his commitment to growth and leadership.
Mr. Watson pursued this degree to deepen his understanding of effective teaching and school leadership, with the goal of making a real impact on both student learning and teacher development. If you’ve worked with him, you already see those leadership qualities in action every day.
This is what lifelong learning looks like. This is what investing in kids and colleagues looks like. The SHMS family is incredibly proud of you and excited for what’s ahead. Congratulations, Mr. Watson! 💙👏📚

🎓🔥 SHMS is celebrating BIG today! 🔥🎓
Please help us congratulate Ms. Latasha Moore, our amazing Spanish teacher, on earning her Master of Arts in Spanish! This is an incredible accomplishment and a true testament to her dedication to her craft and her students.
Ms. Moore shared that she began this journey with the goal of becoming a Spanish professor at the collegiate level and kept running into doors that wouldn’t open without a master’s degree. Instead of letting that stop her, she pushed forward and did the work. That determination, grit, and love for learning is exactly what we hope to model for our students every single day.
Ms. Moore brings passion, culture, and high expectations into her classroom, and this achievement only adds to the impact she already makes at SHMS. We are so proud to celebrate another lifelong learner. Way to go, Ms. Moore! 💙👏📚

🎓👏 Huge congratulations to Mr. James on graduating from University of Central Arkansas and officially becoming a teacher!
We were lucky to have Mr. James as a 6th grade math intern at SHMS, and he truly left his mark. He jumped right in, built great relationships with students, and showed a genuine passion for teaching and learning. This is exactly why we love giving back to and supporting upcoming educators. Watching them grow into confident, capable teachers is one of the best parts of what we do.
The future classroom is in great hands, Mr. James. We are so proud of you and can’t wait to see all the amazing things you’ll accomplish! 🍎📐💙

and all through the halls,
students prepped their shirts
to answer future calls. 🎓
👕Tomorrow, if your school doesn't already have spirit day, wear AVID with a college or career shirt to match the ambition you put into education, just like Joe T. Robinson High School and Sherwood Elementary last week!📚 #AVID #PCSSDproud #ServeAll

🎉💜 WE DID IT, BEAR FAMILY! 💜🎉
Sylvan Hills Middle School is officially a Purple Star School!
This recognition means so much to us because it reflects who we are at our core… a school that stands beside our military-connected students and their families with pride, care, and commitment. Our community is strong, supportive, and always ready to show up for one another.
A huge thank you to our amazing Military Liaison, Haley Frakes, for her leadership, heart, and hard work in making this happen. We are so grateful for you and the way you advocate for our students every single day.
This honor belongs to our students, families, staff, and community. SHMS truly is something special.💙🐻

DELAYED START ❄ As we continue to monitor weather conditions, predictions indicate a high chance of early Tuesday morning temperatures below freezing, which increases the chances of icy roads and bridges. The safety of our students, teachers, and staff is always the first priority, so PCSSD will have a delayed start on Tuesday, December 2, for schools and district offices. Buses will run two hours later than their normal scheduled time. Tardies will not be counted for the day.

💛💙 SHMS MINION DAY FUN! 💛💙
Our Bears showed up today looking bright, silly, and totally ready for Fall Break! From yellow hoodies to goggles and everything in between, our halls were full of laughs and the best Minion energy.
We loved seeing our kids have a little fun before we all head into a well-earned break. They worked hard this quarter, and today was the perfect way to wrap it up.
Enjoy your Fall Break, Bears! Rest up, have fun, and we’ll see you back refreshed and ready to finish strong. 💙🐻💛
