Help us congratulate our nursing team on their award from ImmunizeAR!
At the start of our 24/25 school year about 17% of our students were missing or deficient in vaccines. The district nursing team assisted our families in providing resources, helping schedule appointments, arranging transportation, and assisting with exemption filings. By the end of the first semester less than 1% of our students were missing or deficient in immunizations.
The nursing team was awarded The 2024 Outstanding Childhood Immunization Award presented by ImmunizeAR, recognizing excellence in childhood vaccination efforts. ImmunizeAR is a non-profit organization committed to improving immunization rates through education, advocacy, and state-wide partnerships.

Please help us welcome our new Pea Ridge High School Head Volleyball Coach, Tanner Gilliaum!
“Hello! I'm Coach Gilliaum, and I grew up proud to be a Greenwood Bulldog. During high school, I was on the volleyball team, an active member of Beta, National Honor Society, Partner's Club, and Spanish Club. I graduated with honors and was in my class' Hall of Fame. I attended the University of Arkansas- Fort Smith where I was a lion for the first time while earning my Bachelor's in History with a 7-12 Teaching Licensure. During college, I participated in intramural sports, worked as a student worker for the UAFS Education Renewal Zone program, student-taught at Chaffin and Greenwood High School, and served as a secretary for Future Educators of America. Following graduation, I moved to NWA to coach volleyball at Gravette as the head junior high coach and senior high assistant for the Lady Lions.
After a year, Charleston called and I have been coaching for the district now for three years. I'm the head volleyball coach for the 7-12 program and I also teach Civics/Economics at the high school. I am a co-sponsor for the BETA Club, the sophomore class, and the debate team. I also serve as the Co-Director, Registrar, and Head 16-1 Coach for Club Velocity, a travel volleyball club that is based in Greenwood. I am currently 15 hours into my Master's of Educational Leadership and working on completing that degree. I have two black labs, Hank and Bodie, that love a good car ride or adventure when we have a day away from the gym.”
We’re so glad you’re here, Coach Gilliaum!

Good afternoon!
We know that we are officially in "winter weather season" and that school cancellations/modifications may happen over the next few months. Yesterday, all parents/guardians were emailed a letter with detailed information about how these decisions are made. Just a reminder that if any changes are made to the school day, you will be notified in numerous ways: text alert, phone message, email, live feed on app/web, and on social media.
In the photo below, we have linked the limited bus routes to the home page of our website to make the information as easy to find as possible. Our communications team is working hard on our website to make it more accessible and user-friendly for our Pea Ridge families! We will continue to add/change these home page buttons as timely information needs to be easily accessed.🌟
❄️We are on the winter weather watch…so stay tuned for updates! ❄️
