Cross County School District -

Every lesson has the opportunity to teach character!

The Thunderbird Trophy is on the move again. Mrs. Dana has given it to Mrs. Krystal in the administration building. Mrs. Dana said, "Krystal has been so helpful with me stepping into my new role!  She has such patience when I’m unsure of what to do and always seems to have the answer! She is doing great in her new role and truly a blessing to the district!" Congratulations Mrs. Krystal.

Thunderbird Family, We are excited to welcome our students back on campus tomorrow after being out because of the weather. Please note, that due to a condenser on the freezer at the elementary school, we need to make a few adjustments to this week’s lunch menus. Rest assured, our dedicated cafeteria team is working diligently to ensure delicious and nutritious meals despite this temporary challenge. Also, look for more information about snow routes to come out on our social media at 6:00 p.m. Go Thunderbirds!

The Cross County School District will be closed on Friday, January 19th, 2024. Although many of the main roads can be driven down, many of our snow routes still have icy areas and a high potential of refreezing, making bus pickups unsafe tomorrow morning. Have a safe and warm weekend.

As we checked road conditions this afternoon, we have found there is simply not enough melting to allow parents, buses and student drivers to travel to school safely. As a result Cross County School District will not be in session on Thursday, January 18, 2024. Monitor social media for any updates concerning Friday.

Cross County School District will not be in session on Wednesday, January 17, 2024.

Basketball games scheduled for Tuesday, January 16 against Earle have been postponed. Look for information soon for a new game date.!

Due to inclement weather the Cross County School District will be closed tomorrow, Tuesday, January 16th, 2024. This day will be made up on Monday, February 19, 2024. Follow social media for updates if the closure is extended. Stay safe and warm!

In observance of Martin Luther King, Jr., Day, Cross County Schools will not be in session on Monday, Jan. 15th.

No work is insignificant. All labor that uplifts humanity has dignity and importance and should be undertaken with painstaking excellence. – Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Get ready to hit the books, because tomorrow, Tuesday, Jan. 9th, our amazing students return to school! We hope your holiday break was filled with joy and relaxation. Set your alarms, pack your bags, and let's make this semester even more incredible together!
