Cross County School District -

Congratulations to Makala Clayton, our most recent Be Excellent Challenge winner!

Thank you to JA of Cross County for delivering food for our weekend backpack program and reading to some of our classrooms!

Thank you APSRC for recognizing our elementary school with a banner! Earning an ‘A’ rating for two years in a row is a huge accomplishment and a testament of how hard our teachers and students work. We will hang this banner proudly!

Happy Halloween from CCHS!

Join us Friday night as we recognize our senior athletes of fall sports and the Thunderbirds take on the Midland Mustangs. The program will begin at 6:30 PM with kick-off at 7:00 PM.

Under Mrs. Nikki Williams’s leadership, CCHS’s Thunderbirds Against Drugs (TAD) group was awarded a grant from The Arkansas Sheriff’s Association to purchase materials and supplies to help the student group meet its goals and fund Red Ribbon Week. We would like to thank Cross County Sheriff, David West for the opportunity so we can continue to grow student leaders and bring awareness to all students.

Our partners at NIET caught wind of CCETA's recent accomplishments and shared them nationwide. NIET's TAP System has provided our school with support and guidance in our efforts to put student learning at the center of all that we do.

Congratulations to our very first Be Excellent Challenge winner of the school year: Harrison McGee!

AMI packets have all been placed on high school student laptops or students were given a paper copy. If your student received a paper copy, keep it in a safe place until needed. As a reminder, we will use AMI work in the event school is closed for an emergency or inclement weather. If your child did not get one, please contact the office with questions. Thank you for supporting our school!

Homecoming activities were a hit! The parade included so many creative floats with the week’s theme: “Battle of the Decades”. You could feel that school spirit from Kindergarten all the way to the Seniors! What a great way to end the school week and cheer on those Thunderbirds!

Mrs. Fisher’ class concluded their study of The Outsiders and to close it out, the students dressed as the two rival character groups: the Socs and the Greasers! What a great ending to a outstanding novel study!

Join us tonight at Thunderbird Stadium for homecoming at 6:00 PM. Then, the Thunderbirds will take on the Rector Cougars at 7:00. Come out and support the T-birds!!!

Did you hear? CCETA has been recognized by the Office for Education Policy for outstanding student growth on the ACT Aspire in the Northeast Arkansas Region and Arkansas Overall for the SECOND YEAR IN A ROW. Great job teachers and students for all of your hard work! 🎉💙

CCSD is hosting a flu clinic for students Wednesday, October 16, 2019. If you have not completed paperwork for your student, there is still time. Call your child’s school with questions and to get the forms.

Did you hear the great news? We've got another A report card rating! Congratulations to our CCETA students and staff! We know we've got the best elementary school around! #hardworkpaysoff #proudTBirds

Check out these #ThrowbackThursday photos of the Cross County class of 2005! Will you be joining your classmates at our Homecoming Game on the 18th?

Great things are happening in Mrs. Fisher’s English class! The students are reading The Outsiders. This week, students will be applying the book’s content to present the information as a court case with one of the main characters on trial. Students are applying conflict, imagery, and characterization from the novel study as part of the project. Thank you Mrs. Fisher for making your classes relevant and engaging for your students!

Students in Family and Consumer Science are taking care of their Flour Babies this week! We know one day, these students will make great parents!

Congratulations Noah on your first college acceptance! Noah was the FIRST person to RSVP to our FAFSA night and is on track to be college bound! If you're a senior and planning to go to college like Noah, make sure you RSVP to join us tomorrow night at our Taco Tuesday FAFSA dinner at 5:30 in the high school cafeteria! It's not too late! #C3 #pieceofcake
