𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗙𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗦𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗞𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗔𝗧𝗟𝗔𝗦 𝗧𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 #𝟭 One measure does not define a student’s academic achievement and progress — ATLAS scores are only one piece of the puzzle. Some measures focus on students’ growth and progress while others, like ATLAS, show whether your child has met grade level standards. Review your child’s ATLAS scores alongside classroom tests and quizzes, report card grades, and input from the teacher to get a more complete picture of how your child is performing academically. Rivercrest School District will participate in the ATLAS Summative Assessment during the middle of April and early May.
Congratulations to Andrew Higgins on his acceptance to Arkansas Northeastern College.

We are thrilled to share that our 6th-grade GT students recently participated in the Chess Tournament at Arkansas State University, where they showcased their strategic thinking, problem-solving skills, and sportsmanship! Our students demonstrated incredible teamwork and perseverance, whether they won or faced tough challenges.
