Quote of the Day

"Build Smart favors the staggered construction of two new buildings on FHS’s current central location, one for older students and one for younger, with shared facilities for athletics, dining, and the performing arts. Such a configuration brings together the best of everything. Specifically, it combines the facilities and curriculum advantages of a 3,000-student school with the social and student performance advantages of smaller learning communities; it leaves our community greater flexibility to 'follow the growth' when we do make the inevitable transition to two high schools; and it provides Fayetteville with a 21st century high school without compromising students’ access to existing resources like the University of Arkansas, the city library, and the Walton Arts Center."
