Viola School District

After a few days of competing, the results are in! While we are proud of all the FFA students competing in CDE contests, the Horse Evaluation team has earned a special recognition for their 1st place in the Arkansas FFA Alumni contest. Kara Moore was also awarded 1st place individually! Abby Perryman came in 5th. Landyn Denwalt and Maggie Perryman also placed in the top 10.

Happy School Resource Officer Appreciation Day to one of the best. Thank you Frank Vacante for everything you do for our school and community.

Congratulations to Emma Allen, a second grader at Viola! She competed in the Elk's Lodge State Hoop Shoot Contest in Hot Springs. Even though she didn't feel well, Emma competed and took fourth place in state. She won a backpack full of awesome things. Way to go, Emma! We are proud of you. A special thank you to Elk's Lodge for supporting our kids.

Don't forget! There will be a Senior class meeting on Thursday, Feb. 15th, right after breakfast in Mrs. Hammond's room.

Due to inclement weather, tonight's Senior District tournament games have been postponed to tomorrow night. Tomorrow nights scheduled ballgames will be played on Wednesday night.

Due to a shortage of available officials, tonight's games with Yellville have been cancelled. Unfortunately, 2 of the 3 scheduled officials could not make it tonight, and we could not find replacements on such short notice. Once again, tonight's games with Yellville have been cancelled.
