No Elementary AFTER-School Care Thursday & Friday: Some of you may have received a text message from The REC in Whitehouse regarding their after-school care program at Arp Elementary.
We wanted to clarify that this message did not come from Arp ISD. However, The REC has informed our district's administration that they indeed, will be unable to staff After School Care at Arp Elementary this week on Thursday & Friday.
We understand this situation is unfortunate and will create an inconvenience, and even a hardship for many families.
But please note, this does not mean that we are closing school on Thursday and Friday.
School will be in session at all of our campuses on both days as planned.
If you have any questions regarding the After School Care, you may contact The Rec at 903-202-7181.
Thank you very much for your understanding.
