“Help! I’m Teaching High School Science! What Do I Do Now?”
The district partners with University of Arkansas Community College at Batesville (UACCB) to offer a free, six-hour professional development workshop focused on laboratory safety, chemical inventory management, safe storage practices, and proper disposal procedures. The workshop will be held on July 14, 2026.
​
Several practical, easy to do experiments that can be done in the school science setting will be performed by the participants. The workshop is free and is designed for secondary science teachers.
Student Materials
The District provides free age appropriate educational workbooks on resource conservation, recycling, and litter prevention to students in K-6 for classroom lesson plan extension. Workbooks are made available upon request, prior to America Recycles Day in November and Earth Day in April. Contact us for more information or to order classroom books.
Arkansas K-12 Science Standards
The Arkansas K-12 Science Standards, adopted by the State Board of Education, represent the work of educators from across the state. These standards include student performance expectations which are what all students should know and be able to do. Fundamental Content documents focus specifically on the Disciplinary Core Idea dimension of the standard and serve as supplementary to the standards documents. The assessment blueprints for applicable grade levels/course describe the layout of the science portion of ATLAS.
