Dear Trojan Families,

JA Students giving a presentation.
Families, get ready for an action-packed week at the Hot Springs School District! On Tuesday, August 19, the excitement kicks off with our first Varsity Football game of the season as the Trojans take on Lake Hamilton at home at 7 p.m. That same night, cheer on our Volleyball team as they face Perryville in a benefit game, and join us for the High School Open House Tailgate from 5–7 p.m. — a perfect chance to tour the new school before the big games. We can’t wait to see our Trojan community come together for a night full of spirit, sports, and fun! 💛🖤

Go Trojans! 💛🖤

A Change to How You’ll Get Texts From Our School

Soon, many of the text messages you get from our school will come from regular 10-digit phone numbers. This will make it easier to see who is messaging you. For example, a message from your child’s teacher will come from a different phone number than a message from the school office. 

What’s changing? 
Right now, most texts come from a 5-digit number. Soon, you’ll start getting texts from different regular 10-digit phone numbers for: 

  • Direct messages
  • Classroom and group posts
  • School posts 

Messages from the district, digests and alerts will still come from the 5-digit number. 

What should you do?
When you receive a message from one of these new 10-digit numbers, save it to your contacts.

Here are some suggestions:
  • Save a teacher’s number as: Ms. Davis - 4th Grade
  • Save classroom/group posts as: Lincoln Elementary Classes
  • Save school posts number as: Lincoln Elementary Updates
