Introducing the PBS Books Readers Club
We are thrilled to announce the start of an exciting national PBS book club!
Each month we’ll select books that pair perfectly with your favorite PBS shows.
Returning to school can be a big and stressful transition for children. Even your smallest kids may be feeling stressed or anxious. A new school year brings a new teacher, new routines, new classmates and all kinds of new schoolwork. That much change could make anyone feel overwhelmed, but children often don’t know how to cope with these big emotions.
We’re excited to share that our original show “Mystery League” – a new 20-episode, live-action series to teach kids in kindergarten through second grades about friendship and community –will premiere this fall on the statewide public media network.
“Rise and Shine,” an extensive educational program designed to make summer learning fun and offer K-5 students an engaging way to maintain academic knowledge between school years, will kick off Tuesday, July 18, on Arkansas PBS.
The “Arkansas Quiz Bowl 2023” state champions have been crowned in the state conference finals held at Arkansas PBS on Saturday, April 22, and we’re proud to celebrate these outstanding young scholars!
The final standings were:
CLASS 1A
2023 State Champion: Norfork School District
