From the stage to the royal prison! Our Thespian Troupe had a wonderful time manning the jail at this weekend’s Renaissance Faire. They even got to arrest a couple of familiar faces—our very own Junior High principal, Mr. Richey, and HS teacher, Mr. C! Looks like no one is above the law when our thespians are in charge! We love seeing our students put their creativity, teamwork, and theatrical skills to work in our community. We’re proud of these students for representing Brookland and bringing plenty of theatrical flair to the Faire!

Gina Wells from the Career Readiness Education & Skills Training (CREST) Center at Arkansas State University visited Brookland High School to meet with students in several EAST and CTE classes. She shared information about the Thrown to the Wolves program and the opportunities it provides for students to explore career pathways, solve real-world challenges, and develop valuable workforce skills.
The CREST Center is a collaborative partnership between Arkansas State University, ASU-Newport, and Arkansas Northeastern College focused on preparing students and workers for in-demand careers throughout Northeast Arkansas. Through this partnership, students can learn about career opportunities, industry needs, and educational pathways that connect classroom learning to future employment.

Learning Beyond the Classroom!
Mr. Clairday’s Plant Science class recently visited Black Oak Gin to learn about the cotton ginning process and the history of the gin. Students also visited a field where cotton was actively being harvested, giving them a firsthand look at the ins and outs of operating a modern-day cotton picker.
We love seeing our students gain real-world, hands-on experiences that connect what they learn in the classroom to agriculture in action!
