🏆 This morning, the Arkansas State Board of Education honored Ms. Elizabeth Prewett as the 2025 Arkansas History Teacher of the Year, selected by the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History.

🔰 Ms. Prewett teaches at Mills University Studies High School, where she also serves as Department Chair for the Design Career Academy, mentors novice teachers, and contributes to the AVID Site Team and Guiding Coalition. Her innovative approach—such as integrating Arkansas history into children’s books and student-created comic strips—brings history to life in the classroom.

👏 She also earned National Board Certification in December. Congratulations, Ms. Prewett! Your leadership and creativity continue to inspire students and educators across Arkansas. #PCSSDproud #MillsOnTheMove #ServeAll

✨ ’Twas the night before AVID Wednesday,
and all through the halls,
students prepped their shirts
to answer future calls. 🎓

Congratulations to the first Joe T. Robinson undefeated team and first-year Head Coach Tyler Uptergrove. After the game, Uptergrove said, "This program means everything to my family. They took a chance on a young kid out of college. I had a 3-month-old at the time, needed a job, and they did that for me. I’ll never be able to repay this program for everything they’ve given me.” 🏆💍#GoSenators #PCSSDproud https://tinyurl.com/3cnabvb4
