    Educators: We know you are working hard for your students every day, but don't forget to take time to unwind too. Read your favorite book. Watch a fun movie. Play games with your family. Do whatever makes you happy. You are all amazing! #TeachersInspireAR #COVID19 #COVID19Ar

    Thank you Arkansas School Districts for showing care for students in practical ways! A full 90% of districts in our state are distributing some sort of meal service to their students during the COVID-19 pandemic compared to 30% of nationwide schools. #COVID19 #ARStudentFocused

    The Arkansas Supreme Court’s ruling today was a huge win for students, teachers, and education in Arkansas. We are pleased with the court’s ruling and will immediately resume efforts to implement the most bold, comprehensive education reform law in the nation.
