Don't forget that all students eat FREE!!

However, sometimes the food is just so good that they need more to fill those bellies! This is where their account comes in. Each student has an account with their name on it where you can deposit money for any extras they may like.

We also have the Granny Blue account. You all know that when your kids want something and you can't get it, they go to Granny. Well, our Granny Blue is where the community can contribute to those kids who don't have money for the extras their bellies need to be full. If you'd like to donate, just contact Mrs. Angie at 501-518-2223.

As we gear up for another great year in Blue Devil Nation, we would like to remind you all of our ACES program. This is an out-of-school time program funded by the 21st Century grant. With it, we provide Shirley students with a safe place to spend their out-of-school time while continuing their learning in academics, character, self-esteem, and social skills.

This year we hope to grow our program even more. Our staff has been working hard to plan clubs and groups that will hold our students' attention and keep them coming back again and again.

Be on the lookout for more information here and in weekly folders that will explain more about the programs offered and how your child can sign up for them!

Thank you, Boston Mountain, for providing dinner boxes from Lucas Farms for all of our staff at Open House!

Fun times at Shirley Elementary!

Open House at Shirley Elementary was brimming with excitement! We are so excited to get this year started! (More pics coming)

Looking forward to seeing all your smiling faces on Tuesday!

With so much excitement surrounding this school year, we felt it only fitting to do a little revamp on the Blue Devil Cafe menu. We hope you love it and that it encourages you go get up and move! The health and wellness of our Blue Devils is important to us.

A few things to remember for this year:
1. Every student eats FREE!
2 Meal time visitors need to check in at the office for a visitor's pass before coming to the cafeteria.
3. Students are encouraged to bring money for their accounts to purchase any extra food they want.
4. 7-12 will have Grab n Go breakfast each morning.( Be sure to only get one breakfast and sign your name)

If anyone wishes to donate to the Granny Blue fund, you can send money to Shirley Cafeteria, Attn: Angie Williams, 199 Blue Devil Drive, Shirley, AR 72153
