Prevent Overcrowding
Our district is growing, and our schools must grow with it in order for Fort Smith Public Schools to maintain their excellent educational standards.
Half of the schools in Fort Smith are over capacity. Over 450 elementary students are forced to be transferred or bused away from their home school each day. Creating space at both high schools and moving 9th grade to high schools allows 1,000 seats to be created at the lower levels, allowing all students to attend school in their attendance area!
