Today we celebrate our amazing agriculture teachers, Mr. M Frachiseur, Mr. Lawrence, & Mr. J. Frachiseur. Thank you for your dedication to shaping the next generation of agricultural leaders and making a lasting impact on our students and community! Happy #TeachAgDay! 🌾🍎 #LeopardFamily


De Queen Public Schools will host a flu clinic for students and staff on October 8, 2025. If you wish to participate, please fill out the form that was sent home with students and return it as soon as possible. Extra forms are available in the school office. The deadline to submit forms is September 30th. #LeopardFamily


Today, the students went to the bank to cash their checks and got to witness a powerful moment in our community—the 9/11 walk through town. After the walk, the students were tasked with a real-world lesson: they were allowed to budget their fair earnings and purchase items at the local grocery store.
The fun didn't stop there! Two classes were invited to be Chef Brad's official taste testers and got to try new dishes and vote on what should be added to the school menu.
We're so proud of these students for their creativity and for representing our school so well!
