Earn your teaching license with ArPep!

We had such a wonderful day celebrating our amazing Foster Grandparents! They received an informative and uplifting training on positive reinforcement led by Jessica Griffin, our local LEAD—thank you, Jessica, for pouring into our program!
Our Grannies and Grandpas also rolled up their sleeves and got to work on their Martin Luther King Jr. Day service project. Together, they hand-made 40 cozy blankets that will be donated to The CALL next month.
We are so grateful for their servant hearts and the love they share with our students and community every single day!










Student growth begins with teacher growth! Mentors, instructional coaches, and leaders play a key role in personalizing support for every educator.
Based on John Wink’s book A Teacher’s Guide to Excellence in Every Classroom, this two-day DESE-approved coaching training will equip participants with mentoring and leadership strategies that help all teachers grow in both knowledge and competence within the Hierarchy of Instructional Excellence.
Participants will learn how to:
1️⃣ Identify each teacher’s current level of proficiency
2️⃣ Create an Individualized Excellence Plan focused on targeted growth
3️⃣ Use effective coaching feedback protocols to move teachers forward
4️⃣ Build strong, aligned relationships between principals and coaches

The food was delicious, and most of us tried almost everything! 😄 We had a fantastic turnout for a rainy day, and we’re already excited to do it again with even more student vendors and food trucks next time!
One of our favorite parts of the day was hearing our student groups collaborate, plan, and dream together. THAT is what it’s all about. ❤️
Thank you for supporting our students and our co-op!
Be sure to join us for the next one!

The SEARK Co-op had an absolute blast participating in the Monticello Christmas Parade with our “Welcome Christmas – Happy Wholidays!” float! Being part of this community is such a joy, and we loved spending the evening celebrating alongside our amazing employees and their families.
📚💚 We were especially excited to give out over 800 books to children along the parade route—spreading Christmas cheer and the love of reading!
❤️💚 AND to top it all off-we brought home 2nd place! A huge thank you to our committee chair, Jenny Satterlee, and to everyone who helped bring our Whoville-inspired vision to life!

Rison High School, in partnership with the Southeast Arkansas Education Service Cooperative, recently hosted an AWS Certification Training for agriculture and welding instructors across the region.
