Des Arc School District

Congratulations to our player of the week Daviyon Bell. Daviyon used his explosiveness and great vision to lead the team with 160 yards rushing on 11 carries and 1 rushing TD. Daviyon also had a 45 yard Punt return for a TD. Also pictured is the starting offensive line (Chandler Dobbins, Brody Swaim, Brody Benton, Cole Hunt, and Oakley Davenport) who helped lead the way to our over 350 yards rushing! Without them none of this is possible.

📸PICTURE DAY TOMORROW! All campuses beginning at 8:15 am. Retake day will be Nov. 4th - this includes seniors.

We have around thirty pieces of the old basketball court that we have stored in the old home ec building. We will no longer be able to store them due to the remodel of the building and have decided to give them away. If anyone would like to have a piece of the old court, call the superintendent's office, high school or maintenance and we will meet you at the building and you can pick it up. We have to have it out of the building by the end of next week.

From Booster Club: Booster Club meeting Tuesday 6pm in the Gym. Needing to elect New positions for President and Treasurer! Time to talk about this year’s fundraisers and plans for our Eagle Athletes🦅

Don't forget you can bring food drive items to open house! I heard Hazen is off to a good start. Let's beat Hazen 3 years in a row!

We are excited to see our DAES students tonight. Open house is tonight from 6:00-8:00. We look forward to seeing everyone💚💚💚💚💚

The Battle of the Prairie is happening on September 6th at Hazen this year, and we are calling on the community to donate canned goods and non-perishable items for the Battle of the Prairie Food Drive. With only a month left to collect items, we hope to surpass last year's totals of 6,114 items collected by Des Arc and 3,257 items collected by Hazen. All donations will go towards supporting the local food bank in Prairie County, which many families rely on for their daily needs. Donation points have been set up at the high school and elementary school. More locations will be announced soon. The cutoff for donations will be at noon on September 6th.

The HS Art class would love to have any sports or hunting magazines that you’d like to get rid of. 🙂
