The district needs your help in updating our free/reduced lunch percentage numbers so that we can apply for additional federal funding to help support our "at-risk" student programs. We ask that ALL families go to the link provided or pick up a paper form from your child's office and complete this form for each child, whether you think you qualify or not. We need 100% participation. Thank you for your support!

The Guy-Perkins School Board adopted an Emergency Communicable Diseases Control Plan tonight (Tuesday) requiring that all students, staff, and visitors to the district wear masks (face coverings). A copy of this plan can be accessed at https://tinyurl.com/fyyubsdn. This plan was created in response to district and community stakeholder feedback; current COVID-19 infection data; and the need to protect our student population, especially those under the age of 12 who are unable to receive a COVID-19 vaccination.
From our partner, Faulkner County Sheriff's Office.

Thank you AR Department of Health and Guy-Perkins community for a successful COVID Vaccine Clinic! 41 vaccines given in 5 hours!
All parents of Guy-Perkins students are asked to complete the following "Ready for Learning" survey by Monday, August 2 to help inform the district of our students' needs and concerns: https://forms.gle/Q27527CbkYMWixVw7.
Just like last summer, Guy-Perkins students should be receiving in the mail a P-EBT card from the Department of Human Services that can be used to purchase food items. Some students may have already received their card and it is hoped by August 31 that all cards will have been mailed out to students' families. The dollar amount on the card is based on the numbers of days school was not in session due to Covid-19 related issues. Students may receive a one time benefit for the summer as well. We will keep families up to date as these benefits come out in the next few weeks. Please do not throw away any letter from the Department of Human Services. The call center does not have a list of students eligible, just what services are provided. Because our district was free to all students, all students are eligible.
