The Calico Rock School District will have a Virtual Day on Friday, January 29.

Words cannot fill the void created by the loss of a loved one, much less the loss of an icon. 

Bobby D. Hulse was an icon to the Panther Nation.  He came to Norfork as the high school principal my senior year in 1980-81.  He remained there as principal for the next 40 years shaping lives of both students and teachers alike.  He was my high school principal for only one year, however, he made an impact that has lasted a lifetime.  Mrs. Nordrum was more fortunate,  as she had the experience of having him as her principal for 6 years.

As a neighboring school many of our students, coaches, teachers and administrators have come in contact with Mr. Hulse over the years. It was easy to see his impact on Norfork schools, students, and community. 

The Pirate Nation is keeping Norfork in our thoughts and prayers as they mourn the loss of a leader.

KIAP CLASS CHANGES:

We have started KIAP classes again, with some changes. We are transitioning from Jujitsu to TaeKwonDo. The student ranks will remain the same, most of the syllabus is the same so the students will have no problem with the change.

By changing to TaeKwonDo we will not be training ground fighting or body throws. This will limit the close, "face-to-face" between students.

Also with only one class per training day, I will be able to thoroughly sanitize the Dojo between classes.

The class times are as follows: (Starting January 19th)

High School (7th-12th): Mondays 3:30 - 4:30

Elementary (4th-6th): Tuesdays immediately after school - 4:30

Little Warriors (1st-3rd): Thursdays immediately after school - 4:15 (shorter class)
