Hello CRSD families. As most of you know, we are saddened by the recent loss of our Transportation Director, Greg Ricks. We are exploring options for an interim to serve as a point of contact for our bus drivers right now. The position was posted today to search for a permanent replacement. In the meantime, bus drivers should contact either Mr. Ford or the principal they work closely with to communicate any immediate needs. Bus routes should run as usual. Please be patient as we do our best to make this transition. If you have any issues regarding transportation for your student, please contact the building principal.
Hola familias de CRSD. Como la mayoría de ustedes saben, estamos tristes por la reciente pérdida de nuestro Director de Transporte, Greg Ricks. Estamos explorando opciones para un interino para servir como un punto de contacto para nuestros conductores de autobús en este momento. El puesto se ha publicado hoy para buscar un sustituto permanente. Mientras tanto, los conductores de autobús deben ponerse en contacto con el Sr. Ford o el director con el que trabajan estrechamente para comunicar cualquier necesidad inmediata. Las rutas de autobús deben funcionar como de costumbre. Por favor, sea paciente mientras hacemos todo lo posible para hacer esta transición. Si tiene algún problema relacionado con el transporte de su hijo, póngase en contacto con el director de la escuela.


It's a great day to be a CRHS Eagle! The senior girls took home first place in the Southwest Arkansas Invitational held at Mineral Springs this week. The senior boys went 2-1 in the tournament, winning this evening in the consolation game to take third place. Great job!


Congratulations to Cossatot River's very own 4th Grader, Jayne Johnson, who traveled to Melbourne, FL to represent Cossatot and the state of Arkansas in the National All State softball games this week! We are all proud of you.

Cossatot River School District is proud to showcase our staff members in The Staff Spotlight! This edition features Maricela Avila:
"Hello! My name is Maricela Avila. I am the English as a Second Language (ESL) Coordinator. I also translate and interpret for the district. I travel to all campuses and enjoy working and meeting everyone on each campus. I always learn something new from our fabulous staff at CRSD. I have worked for the district for seventeen years. I started as an ESL tutor at CRHS and then became the migrant coordinator. I taught second grade for 8 years and first grade for 2 years. I am now in my second year as ESL Coordinator and have learned a lot more. I love my district. I started my education here in 1991, graduated from high school in 2003, and came back to work in 2006. This is not just a working place. It is home, family, and friends. I now have two daughters who attend CRES and CRHS. I feel comfortable knowing my two daughters are safe and know our staff will always do their best to give everyone a safe environment. My safe place is home, my love is my family, and my hobbies are anything that involves being with them. They are my everything."
We are Unique.
We are United.
We are Cossatot River Strong!
