Welcome to elementary school at Arkansas Christian Academy! This is an exciting time in the life of a child, but it can also be a very challenging time, not only for a child, but for the parents as well. It’s during the elementary years that children begin to slowly become more independent. The early elementary years, especially kindergarten, can be a difficult time—from long eight-hour school days, to juggling homework, dinner and after-school activities, and separation anxiety when it’s time to leave mom and dad. Elementary school can be tough, but it can also be a lot of fun. It is our goal to make elementary school a wonderful experience in the life of your precious little one.
If ever you or your child feel a little overwhelmed or just need a little help with coping strategies, you may contact our school counselor, Ms. Jackie Barner, any time! She is available to meet with children and/or parents as needed. You can reach her at the school office by calling (501) 847-0112 or email her at jbarner@archristian.org.
