Have a happy and safe holiday!
Parkview has been a whirlwind of activity this whole semester, and the time has come for us to take the shortest of breaks. Classes will be out beginning December 17 and will resume on January 3. Please have a happy and safe holiday, and we will see you next year for more education and excitement!

Talk about writing your own ticket!
Senior Dallas Thomas signed with Clemson during National Signing Day recently. He is known for his exceptional skills on the court and unwavering dedication to the game - and all the hard work that went into those skills just paid off in the biggest ways! Please congratulate Mr. Thomas if you see him!

Look at that Football team!
Not to brag, but we are still undefeated in conference; 35-0 against Alma in the first round of the state tournament, and will forever be known as the team that broke the 56-month winning streak of the Bryant Hornets. These football players are on fire. You have two more choices to see them and support them. These last two games MUST be prepaid! Come out and watch us take the state championship two years in a row!

Yearbook deadlines - January 31!
Yearbooks are still on sale for $60. After Jan. 31, all yearbooks will be $70; and will be available online until they are sold out. Please get yours now, we had tons of kids that missed out last year because they did not pre order their book!

Senior tribute ads still available regular prices until December 15
If you can't find your senior tribute/ticket ad packet, it is under the parent corner on the first menu close to the top. Please do this for your seniors! They do not do these tribute ads in college - this is your last chance to congratulate and encourage your child and provide them with a lifetime keepsake!

Look at this amazing choir!
The Parkview choir department took three choirs to the ArkCDA Region 2 Invitational Assessment recently, and all three choirs (Advanced Treble Chorus, Lab Singers, and Madrigals) earned Division I – Superior ratings in performance!

Sure bet or a roll of the dice...
We have good news and bad news ... The good news is device insurance is now available for students in LRSD with a school issued laptop - and it is a sure bet. For the cost of $26 dollars a Chromebook is covered for manufacturer defects, mechanical/hardware failure, drops, liquid damage, cracked screens, and power surges. The bad news is, if you choose to roll the dice and to decline insurance, the cost for repairing a device will be the responsibility of the parent/guardian. Please view the attachment on the important links page of our website for directions on purchasing Chromebook Insurance. The important links tab can be found under both the parents and students menus or by clicking the links on the first page of the website.
