🌄 6th Grade Field Study at Petit Jean State Park!
Yesterday, our 6th graders spent the day exploring Petit Jean State Park for a hands‑on field study filled with Arkansas history, geology, and wildlife conservation.
Students visited:
• Rock House — where they viewed ancient petroglyphs and learned what these carvings can tell us about the people who lived here long ago.
• Cedar Falls Trail — where they discovered how the iconic waterfall was formed, the story of how Petit Jean got its name, and the early construction that shaped the park we know today.
• Bear Cave — where they learned why the area is called “Bear Cave” and heard the story of how Arkansas worked to protect bears and other wildlife from near extinction.
• Museum of Automobiles — where they wrapped up the day with a fun tour of historic vehicles and learned how transportation has changed over time.
Our students had a full day of learning, exploring, and connecting classroom lessons to the natural world. Experiences like this help build a deeper appreciation for Arkansas’s history, wildlife, and conservation efforts.
Great job, 6th grade — and thank you to Petit Jean State Park for an unforgettable day of learning!

You may remember that grades K-3 recently began reading, "The World According to Humphrey". We were visited by Dr. Still from Nashville Animal Hospital to learn about hamster care. This week we had each class submit a name for our hamster and then students were able to vote for their favorite name. It was a close race, but Honey Bun won over Rosie by only two votes!
