Good morning parents and staff, we experienced a false alarm lockdown at the intermediate school this morning around 7:35am. Again, this was a false alarm. We are investigating how this happened but rest assured all staff and students are safe. Have a great day!
Hi Sand Lizards, we regret to inform you that tonight's game in Alma has been forfeited by us due to a high number of illness and injuries. The health and safety of our student athletes is always our greatest priority.
Have a safe weekend!

Greetings Sand Lizards, Last evening the board of education unanimously voted to immediately allow all current Dardanelle Students (K-12) to be admitted to any home sporting event at no cost. We are grateful to our board for making this possible for our students.
However, all Dardanelle students 12 years and younger must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian to enter the sporting event.
Go Sand Lizards!
Dr Gotcher
Saludos Lagartos de Arena,
Anoche, la junta de educación votó por unanimidad para permitir de inmediato que todos los estudiantes actuales de Dardanelle (K-12) sean admitidos en cualquier evento deportivo en casa sin costo alguno. Estamos agradecidos a nuestra junta por hacer esto posible para nuestros estudiantes.
Sin embargo, todos los estudiantes de Dardanelle de 12 años o menos deben estar acompañados por un padre o tutor legal para participar en el evento deportivo.
¡Vamos Lagartijas de arena!

Dear Sand Lizard Family,
On Tuesday, October 10th, an incident occurred involving one of our students and one of our buses. The incident has been reported and is still under investigation. Our student was completely unharmed in the incident, and appropriate measures are underway to prevent any future similar incidents. The parent was immediately notified when we learned of the incident and we have worked closely with them. Our focus will always be on the safety of our students. On that principle, we will not compromise.
Best regards,
Dr Gotcher
Querida familia de lagartos de arena,
El martes 10 de octubre, se produjo un incidente que involucró a uno de nuestros estudiantes y uno de nuestros autobuses. El incidente ha sido reportado y todavía está bajo investigación. Nuestro estudiante estuvo completamente ileso en el incidente, y se están llevando a cabo las medidas adecuadas para evitar cualquier incidente similar en el futuro. El padre fue notificado de inmediato cuando nos enteramos del incidente y hemos trabajado en estrecha colaboración con ellos. Siempre nos centraremos en la seguridad de nuestros estudiantes. En ese principio, no nos comprometeremos.
Saludos cordiales,
