All of these students are on a path to a bright future because of the work they have put into learning to code. Congratulations to the 17 teams that are advancing to the state competition in May.”

At this time, we have not received any updates from the ADE. Because we do not know when internet service will be restored, we will not hold any classes for virtual students today. No new content will be taught , and this will be an opportunity for virtual students to complete any missing assignments, study material, or review previously taught content. Students on campus will also use this day to complete assignments and review. Thank you for your patience, and we hope you all have a safe and happy Thanksgiving holiday. We will resume classes as scheduled on Monday, November 30th.

Update! The Arkansas Department of Education provides internet service to eStem and all public schools in the state. Their network is currently down, so we won’t be able to provide access to email or zoom sessions for our virtual students and families this morning. At this time, virtual students can work on completing previous assignments or review content on our digital learning platforms. The ADE has announced that the issue should be corrected around 9:00 this morning.
