Once you know how your child is doing, work with their teacher to create a plan for the year ahead.

Talk about the skills your child should learn, the support they may need at school, and activities you can use at home. Continue checking in throughout the year so you can celebrate progress and address challenges early.

Arkansas families can also find free support through the ATLAS Family Toolkit, R.I.S.E. Arkansas Family Resources, local libraries, tutoring, Individual Reading Plans, and personalized Read-at-Home Plans.

Get started at GoBeyondGrades.org/Arkansas.

Do you know where your child currently stands in reading and math?

Check your child’s most recent ATLAS results, beginning-of-year screeners, classwork, and teacher feedback to get the full picture of their progress.

For third-grade families, be on the lookout for a letter that tells you whether your child is on track to be promoted to fourth grade. If your child needs additional reading support, ask whether they have an Individual Reading Plan and what you can do to help at home.

Find free support and resources at GoBeyondGrades.org/Arkansas.

A strong school year is based in a solid partnership between families and teachers.

Reach out to your child’s teacher early in the year to share how your child learns best, where they shine, and where they may need additional support. Regular communication is one of the best ways to understand how your child is growing.

Use the Dear Teacher Letter and other free back-to-school resources at GoBeyondGrades.org/Arkansas.

Grades are important, but they do not always tell the full story of how a child is doing in school.

In Arkansas, 84% of parents believe their child is reading at or above grade level, yet only 40% of students are meeting grade-level expectations. Continue the school year strong by looking at grades, state test results, classwork, and feedback from your child’s teacher.

Know the Score, Grow your Reader! Visit GoBeyondGrades.org/Arkansas for free tools to help you understand your child’s progress and plan for the year ahead.

A HUGE thank you to Fandango Movie Theater Adventures Subgrant for awarding the Boys & Girls Club of Phillips County a $5,000 grant to give our Club Kids an unforgettable movie theater experience!

Before heading out on our adventure, Club Members learned what happens behind the scenes to make movies come to life—from the people and technology involved to what goes into creating the movie theater experience.

Then it was time to hit the road! Our Club members traveled VIP style by charter bus, Village Travel, to Cinemark XD Extreme Digital Cinema in Little Rock, Arkansas.

Members enjoyed watching the newly released DreamWorks Forgotten Island 3D, relaxing in luxury loungers, and, of course, enjoying all the theater concessions!

A special THANK YOU to RAAD — Rise Above Alcohol and Drugs-for supporting our Club Kids through a mini-grant that provided their awesome drug free tee-shirts for the adventure! Your support helped make the experience even more special!

But the fun doesn't stop here! STAY TUNED for our very own Club Film Festival! Our Club members will reenact their favorite scenes and even create their own alternate endings to the film.

We are so grateful to Fandango for making this incredible experience possible and giving our Club Kids the opportunity to explore, learn, imagine, and experience the magic of the movies!

Thank you, Fandango and RAAD for investing in our Club Kids!
