Senior Spotlight Day 17
To the Class of 2026 — today is more than a graduation day; it is the closing of one chapter and the beginning of another. Every late night, every challenge, every lesson, every victory, and every setback helped shape the strength, wisdom, and determination you carry today. You are leaving with more than a diploma — you are leaving with the power to impact the world around you. Never allow your background, obstacles, or fears to limit the greatness inside of you. Walk boldly into your future with faith, confidence, integrity, and purpose. Continue to dream big, work hard, uplift others, and never forget where you came from. Your journey will not always be easy, but you were built to overcome, lead, and succeed. Congratulations, Class of 2026 — your future is bright, your purpose is real, and your story is only beginning.

FCCLA had an amazing time visiting the Mid-America Science Museum in Hot Springs! Students explored hands-on exhibits, learned about science and technology, and enjoyed interactive activities throughout the museum.
One of the highlights was experiencing the Tesla coil demonstration, where students got to see powerful electrical currents in action.
Another favorite was the exciting 14-foot trampoline experience that challenged students to test gravity and motion in a fun way! It was a great opportunity for learning, teamwork, and making memories.
A special thank you to Mrs. Bethel Byrd, PBJHS FCCLA Advisor, for making this incredible learning experience possible for our students!
