AHS Seniors Tour UCA
On Wednesday, October 27th, a group of the AHS senior class toured the University of Central Arkansas campus. Jessie Van Es, Assistant Director of Campus Visits welcomed the group to UCA campus and provided UCA viewbooks and collegiate swag for the group. The tour consisted of various campus facilities including, but not limited to the unique and distinctive UCA football field (painted purple and gray striped), campus dorm, recreational facilities, STEM, health professions and education buildings, and the Dr. Edmond E. Griffin Planetarium located in the Conway Corporation Center for the Sciences. Students and special guest Makenna Goss, AHS Alumnae and UCA sophomore, had lunch in the UCA Student Center Food Court then completed the campus tour.
ORSD would like to say “thank you” to Jessie Van Es and MaKenna Goss for guiding the campus tour and providing important information for students that address their postsecondary goals and plans.

Acorn Tigers Basketball Schedule - November 2021


The Acorn Fire Station visited Acorn PS last week during fire safety/community helpers month. Smokey the Bear and the Fire Pup were a big hit when they made their appearance. The children learned about fire safety in the home and on camp grounds, smoke detectors and the importance of having a meeting place, etc. It was a great time!
Southwest EMS also made a special last week. The preschoolers were able to look inside the ambulance to learn about what kind of tools Paramedics use.
Thank you Acorn Fire Dept. and Southwest EMS for visiting our preschoolers during Fire Safety & Community Helpers Month!
