Laurie Harrison is a theater and forensics teacher at Fulbright Jr. High. She's also our June Extra Mile Award recipient. Laurie was nominated by a Fulbright mom who says Laurie created a safe place for her sons who are on the autism spectrum. In her classroom, these two young men thrived, so much so, one intends to continue theater in high school.
Laurie is committed to finding students who aren't quite sure where they fit in at jr high and helping them to see their worth.
Thank you, Laurie, for making this #whereexcellencelives
If you'd like to nominate a Bentonville Schools employee for going the Extra Mile, do so at bentonvillek12.org under About Us.
We feel this deep in our soul. #whereexcellencelives
These two live and breath Bentonville Athletics...doesn't matter if it's soccer, softball or squash. (Maybe not that last one. Yet.) Athletic Director Scott Passmore and Bentonville High Athletic Director Chris Hutchens were recently honored by the Arkansas High School Athletic Administrators Association for their on and off the field commitments to Bentonville student-athletes. Chris received the Newcomer of the Year award while Scott was recognized with the Bruce D. Whitehead Distinguished Service Award. Congratulations, gentlemen! #whereexcellencelives
