Happy National School Counselors Week! Ericka Fuentes reflects on her past four years at Lee Elementary School as the school counselor. She says “Growing up and being in school, I felt that if I had a little extra support when life got tough, things would have been smoother for me. I do what I do because I want to be able to provide that kind of support for our students and our school.” Great counselors help make Springdale Public Schools #THEChoice.

And the awards keep coming! Lee Elementary is being recognized by the UofA’s Office for Education Policy as a “Beating the Odds” school! Lee is in the top 5 schools in Northwest Arkansas for English/Language Arts growth. Once again, we’re so very proud of the hard work of our students, teachers, and all staff!!! #WeGrowKids

Because of a grant provided by the American Heart Association and rb, Lee Elementary has 3 new water bottle filling stations! We had a ribbon cutting for these yesterday. This is an initiative of Healthy, Active Arkansas and Beaver Water District. So many partners came together to make this happen! Every Lee student will also receive a free water bottle!
