Great to see the next generation of Red Wolves on campus! 🐺✨
Our students had an awesome day at ASU Jonesboro exploring their future paths through program-specific tours and getting a real taste of college life (literally—lunch was a hit! 🍔).
From the classrooms to the student lounge, the energy was unmatched. We can’t wait to see where these bright minds go next!

As we get closer and closer to the Class of 2026 earning their diplomas, it’s time to begin spotlighting our seniors!
We’re starting with Mackenzie Grace Robbins. Mackenzie has been a member of the Cougars’ bowling and volleyball teams and is also involved in BETA Club.
She shared that her most impactful teacher has been Mrs. Faulkner, who always made class fun and made learning feel real.
When asked what advice she would give to underclassmen, Mackenzie said:
“Be kind to everyone. Being rude won’t get you anywhere in life — it only causes drama that won’t do you any favors. Having a bad attitude won’t work when you’re an adult.”
After graduation, Mackenzie plans to work toward becoming a veterinarian.
Congratulations, Mackenzie! We have loved having you at Izard County and wish you nothing but the very best in your future!
