Yerger Middle School

Parents, please make sure your students are coming to school! This school year alone, just Kindergarten and First Grade have over 1200 DAYS MISSED! We understand things happen, but it is extremely important that your children are here at school! Missing school means robbing children of the foundational building blocks of their education. If you need help getting your student to school, please contact your child's campus for bus routes or other information.

The Texarkana Recreation Center is hosting the first ever Texarkana Autism Inclusion Expo. The event will be held on Saturday, January 27th from 10:00 am until noon. Lunch will be provided. Professionals from across the state will be on hand to provide information on helping your child Thrive! Please share this information with anyone who might benefit, and ask them to be in attendance. Together, we can all make a difference. We are asking for those interested to sign-up via online registration at Texarkanaparks.Recdesk.com. Anyone with questions should contact the Texarkana Rec Center at 870-779-4964.
