Earth Day Recyclable Cheetah Contest  Images show examples of cheetahs made from recyclable materials such as paper towel rolls, cardboard, and crafts, along with recycling items like a bottle and reusable bag.  Create a cheetah using any kind of recyclable materials.  Cheetahs are due to Ms. Carr, Room 116 on Earth Day, April 22, 2026.

ATLAS begins tomorrow, April 13th, for K-2nd grade scholars and on Tuesday, April 14th, for 3rd-5th scholars. Our Chicot Cheetahs are ready to show what they know! 🐆📚✨ Please help us by:

  • making sure scholars get plenty of sleep,

  • arriving on time (7:40 am) to school,

  • having scholars eat a nutritious breakfast,

  • and encourage scholars to do their best when testing.

These efforts ensure a prepared start for testing and truly make a difference. We also ask that early checkouts be avoided on testing days. Students may test throughout the day. Keeping their schedule consistent helps them stay focused and do their best. Let’s work together to support our scholars and help them shine during ATLAS! 💙

Our Service Day was one for the books! 🐆🌱✨From the moment we got started, it was all hands on deck. Staff, students, and volunteers came together to clean up, plant, and bring new life to our campus. Whether it was pulling weeds, laying mulch, planting flowers, or working in the garden beds, everyone played a part in making our school shine. This is what leadership looks like in action. Taking pride in our environment, working together, and giving back to our school community. 💛 We are so grateful for everyone who showed up, worked hard, and made this day so meaningful. #ChicotCheetahs #ServiceDay #WeAreChicot

It’s been a long, busy week here at Chicot, but we couldn’t let it end without honoring one of our MVPS. 💙🐆 Happy Assistant Principal Week Ms. Butler!!! For the past 8 years, Ms. Butler has been the heart behind so much of what makes Chicot run the way it does. She leads with strength, care, and consistency, always showing up for our students, staff, and families no matter what the day brings. Her dedication, her presence, and the way she pours into this school every single day truly set her apart. She is not only an incredible leader, but someone who makes Chicot feel like home for so many. She is THE BEST OF THE BEST. We appreciate you more than words can say, Ms. Butler. 💫

Chicot families, we need your input. 📝 The City of Little Rock is working with the YMCA to explore before and after-school programming. Before moving forward, they are trying to determine if families currently have difficulty accessing these programs. Your feedback will help determine if additional programs can and should be added to our school. Please take a few minutes to complete this survey.

📅 Survey closes April 13
