Supporting Families and Nurturing Growth
In alignment with the mission of Fort Smith Public Schools, our Student Services department is dedicated to ensuring every student realizes their academic and personal potential, both today and in the future.
Traditional programs might not cater to every student's unique needs. Thus, we offer a variety of educational choices designed to accommodate diverse learning styles and address specific challenges students may face, whether they're social, behavioral, or academic.
Join us in our commitment to putting students first, empowering them to reach their full potential, and fostering a community of success.
