Parents/Guardians,
For the safety of all students, we require a valid photo ID anytime a child is checked out of school. Our staff will verify your ID against the names listed on your child’s information sheet before releasing them.
We cannot make exceptions to this procedure , even if staff members know you personally. This ensures that every parent or guardian is treated fairly and consistently. For example, if one parent is asked for ID while another is not, it could cause confusion or concern.
If a parent or guardian arrives without an ID, they will be asked to return with one before the child can be checked out.
We understand this may feel like an inconvenience at times, but please know this procedure is in place for one reason: to protect our students. Your patience and cooperation help us maintain a safe and secure environment for every child in our care.
Thank you for your understanding and partnership.
— Osceola School District

📵 Bell-to-Bell No Personal Devices 📵
Parents and Students,
This school year, Arkansas law requires that students may not use personal electronic devices during the instructional day—from the first bell to the last bell.
🚫 This includes:
Cell phones
Smartwatches
iPads or tablets not issued by OSD
Headphones, earbuds, and other similar devices
✅ Only devices issued by the Osceola School District may be used during the school day.
This is not just a district rule—it is state law, and all schools in Arkansas are required to comply.
The goal is simple:
Eliminate classroom distractions
Keep the focus on learning
Create a safer and more respectful school environment
We ask parents to please remind students of this law and encourage them to leave personal devices at home or keep them stored away during school hours.
Thank you for partnering with us to ensure our schools remain safe, focused, and productive from the first bell to the last!

Welcome to a New School Year
OSD Families,
The first day of school is just around the corner, and I want to take a moment to thank you for entrusting us with your children. We’re excited to welcome our students back and begin another school year filled with growth, learning, and opportunity.
This year’s theme in the Osceola School District is “Rowing as 1 Osceola.” This means we are united - every student, every staff member, every family, working together and moving in the same direction. With focus, purpose, and collaboration, we will rise to meet the challenges ahead and create powerful opportunities for our students to thrive.
Our team has been working diligently to prepare our campuses, classrooms, buses, and cafeterias. Whether it’s your child’s first day in Pre-K or their final year of high school, we want them to feel safe, supported, and seen from the moment they walk through the doors.
We are proud to partner with you in your child’s journey. Together, as one community, we will make this a year to remember.
Let’s go!
Dr. Gregory Hodges
Superintendent
Osceola School District

Easton Hearn – Sophomore | Catcher

A true leader on and off the field, Easton brings energy, intensity, and heart to every game.

Jeremiah Jacobs – Senior | Pitcher / Center Field
