Yesterday was Librarian Appreciation Day, and we want to take a moment to recognize our very own, Gina Hunter! Mrs. Hunter wears many hats and steps in wherever she is needed. Her impact reaches far beyond the library walls, and we are so blessed to have her as part of the CRES family. Thank you, Mrs. Hunter, for all you do! You are appreciated more than you know! 📚❤️

Mr. Magic Buffy Coleman visited the Umpire campus today to share some wisdom and motivation---and a some awesome ball handling skills! Mr. Magic played with the Harlem Wizards, and now he travels the country to speak to students about working hard to achieve their dreams! Discipline and grit got him where he is, and he did a wonderful job sharing that with our students.

You won’t miss a single pitch this season—our home games will now be livestreamed! 🎥
Our CRES 6th grade students had an incredible opportunity to explore future careers during a recent visit to Mena Regional Health System!
Students toured the hospital and gained a behind-the-scenes look at the many career paths within the healthcare field. They also participated in engaging sessions with the Mena Fire Department and the Polk County Sheriff’s Office, where they learned about careers in emergency response and public service.
A special thank you goes out to everyone who volunteered their time to speak with our students and make this experience possible. Your investment in our students is truly appreciated!
Experiences like this help our students connect learning to real-world opportunities and begin thinking about their future goals. #FutureReady #CareerExploration #CRES

Today in Mrs. Lawrence’s class, we brought the real world into the classroom! 💰🏡
Students participated in a real-life simulation where they had to budget, pay bills, and make financial decisions just like adults. From rent and utilities to groceries and unexpected expenses, they got a firsthand look at the importance of managing money wisely.
There were definitely some eye-opening moments (and a few “adulting is hard!” reactions 😅), but also lots of great learning and problem-solving. #RealWorldLearning #Adulting101
Thank you to the Polk County Extension Office for coming out and volunteering with this awesome program.
