Interests/hobbies: I love playing the piano and singing. It’s what I do to relax. I love all things outdoors, but especially deer hunting. I love the early morning hunts, watching the sunrise and all of God’s creation wake up. What I’m most excited about: I’m super excited to be a part of such an amazing team. Coming in as a first-year teacher, I am nervous, but the first-grade team of teachers has already been so helpful. I’m also excited to pour into these first graders and be able to watch them grow, not only academically, but also in their confidence. I know when I see them have their “ah-ha” moment, it is going to be so rewarding.

Upcoming Events

Mrs. Celeste’s class were all chatting about the weather during 2nd recess so we pulled up the KATV map and had a little geography lesson. Students were excited to find Arkansas county in the red. Following recess we wrote persuasive journal entries about why school should be closed. I guess our arguments were effective. Everyone stay safe and warm! #snowday #AMI #katv

Parents, We are closely monitoring the weather as storms approach Stuttgart. All administrators are communicating with teachers to ensure severe weather protocols are followed. Our students and staff's safety are paramount. We will continue to provide updates throughout the day. -- Jeff McKinney, Superintendent
