The sensory area will help incorporate learning through play by building social skills for students. We are proud of you and can't wait to see this grant put to good use!! 💙💙

📚📚 BEYOND THE LIBRARY 📚📚

Our new librarian, Mrs. Curtner, is joining other Nettleton library media specialists this week at the AAIM (Arkansas Association of Instructional Media) Conference. The professional development is being hosted right here in Jonesboro, and participants have the opportunity to learn and collaborate with other media professionals across the state. 🖤💛

💡💡 SUMMER PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT💡💡

Some of our staff members had the opportunity to attend a professional development session on Trauma-Invested Classrooms today. This PD was offered by the Nettleton School District through the Arkansas A.W.A.R.E. program.

Participants learned about the ways that students' experiences can impact their learning, behavior, and ability to make social connections. This training informed participants about how to create safe spaces in our classrooms where all students can succeed and feel connected. 🤗🤗🖤💛
