Statement from Chad Pitts, Superintendent of the Sheridan School District:
The Sheridan School District has recently been working closely with the Office of Emergency Management (OEM) to implement Rave Alert, a widely-used emergency notification system designed to help keep our schools and communities safe. Earlier this morning, during an initial test of the system, an error occurred. A test notification that was intended for only a small group of five individuals was mistakenly sent to a larger number of school employees across various parts of the District.
We understand the confusion and concern this may have caused, and we sincerely apologize for any distress this situation may have created. Both the Sheridan School District and the Office of Emergency Management are actively investigating the cause of this error and are taking immediate steps to ensure that it does not happen again in the future.
The safety and well-being of our students, staff, and community are our top priority, and we remain committed to maintaining transparent communication as we work through this matter. Thank you for your understanding.
Congratulations to these Yellowjacket football players for their outstanding accomplishments!
6A East All-Conference: Jace Bradshaw, Eythan Cowden, Braxton Fox, Jacob Pilkington, Isaiah "Zay" Stephens, Payton Sterritt.
6A All-State: Zay Stephens, Payton Sterritt.
6A East Offensive Player of the Year: Zay Stephens.

Earlier this week, some members of Sheridan School District’s leadership team met to discuss ways to build high-performing, collaborative teams. Led by Janel Keating, the group focused on ways to improve practices and processes across the district – everything from the boardroom to the classroom – with the goal of enhancing both student and adult learning. It was a great opportunity for everyone to work together on strategies that will help us move forward in achieving our mission.
Sheridan High School's JROTC program demonstrated outstanding teamwork and determination at the Brookland High School JROTC Raider Competition, competing against 24 teams from schools across Arkansas. The competition featured three grueling events: a tire relay, a sled relay, and a 4-mile ruck march/run. (A "ruck march" or "ruck run" is a physical exercise where you walk or run a set distance while carrying a weighted backpack.) Female Team 1 secured a 1st place finish in the Tire Relay, showcasing their strength and coordination. The combined efforts of all Sheridan teams led to an impressive 3rd place overall finish for the Sheridan Raiders. Congratulations to our cadets for their hard work and success!
Names of cadets and the teams they competed with are listed below:
Female Team 1: Aubre Frank, Lynleigh Holder, Abbi Barbre, Charity Brown.
Female Team 2: Marina Muniz, Jana Bradshaw, Valeria Alava, Malorie Harris.
