Kirby Elementary School has been awarded a $7,000 Arkansas Game and Fish Wildlife Education Grant through the Arkansas Economic Development Commission! We are incredibly grateful for this support and excited to bring even more hands‑on, outdoor learning opportunities to our students.
This grant will allow us to strengthen and expand our wildlife education initiatives, including:
• 🐾 Enhancing outdoor learning spaces
• 🎣 Supporting conservation and wildlife‑focused classroom projects
• 🌱 Providing materials for nature-based activities and student exploration
• 🦉 Creating more opportunities for students to engage with Arkansas’s natural resources
• 🎯 Purchasing additional equipment to expand our school archery program, giving more students the chance to learn archery skills, safety, and discipline
These experiences help our students build confidence, responsibility, and a deeper appreciation for the outdoors.
Thank you to the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission and the Division of Rural Services for investing in our kids and our school. We can’t wait to share updates as these projects come to life!

📢 Important Update for Parents & Guardians: New HAC Login Security (MFA) & Known Issues
To help protect student information, the Home Access Center (HAC)—where you check grades, attendance, and student records—now requires Multi‑Factor Authentication (MFA). This means that when you log in, HAC will send a one‑time verification code to your email, and you’ll enter that code to complete your login.
This added step helps keep your child’s information secure.
🔐 What to Expect When Logging In
After entering your username and password, HAC will send a verification code to your email.
You must enter that code to finish logging in.
This is required for all users as part of the new security update.
📧 Not Receiving the Code? Try This:
Check your Spam/Junk folder.
Refresh your inbox after a minute or two.
Make sure your email account is not full.
Click “Resend Code” on the HAC login screen.
If the code still does not arrive, please contact the school office so we can help verify your account information.
⚠️ Special Note for Yahoo Email Users
We are aware that some parents/guardians using Yahoo email may receive a verification code that includes letters or symbols, not just numbers.
If this happens, the correct code is the LAST 6 characters in the message.
Example:
MFA Code: =0D=0A603847
➡️ Your code would be: 603847 (last 6 characters in the real example)
