10 Year Old Becomes Christmas Example During “Shop with a Cop”
December 24th, 2012 by Joe Burgess
During Saturday morning’s “Shop with a Cop” sponsored by Walmart, Monticello Police officers took 23 children and teenagers shopping at Walmart, with $100 to spend on each one of them.
The officer that was with one 10 year old boy asked him, “Where do you want to start.” Most kids would answer toys or games, but this child’s reply was, “I want to buy my Mommy something for Christmas.” He wanted to buy her jewelry, so they went to that department and picked out a ring for her.
Next the officer asked him, “What do you want to get now.” His reply was, “I want to buy me something to wear for Christmas,” so off the clothes they went.

Wild, Windy, Wintery Weather
December 20th, 2012 by Joe Burgess
Wednesday, afternoon temperatures were in the mid-70’s.
Now, they’re below 50 degrees.
Earlier this afternoon, a strong wind, out of the south ripped the metal roof of of this Midway Route home, near Wilson Mill Road. No one was at home at the time. The only other damage was a tree that was blown down.
Tonight, please take care of your pets, plants, and pipes, as overnight lows are forecast to drop into the 20’s.
That, my friends, is Southeast Arkansas weather.

Drew Central Students Viewed The Hobbit Movie
December 18th, 2012 by Drew Central Schools
Drew Central Fourth Graders in Eva Arrington’s class have read the children’s classic The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien. It was the fantasy epic of our time. Students and their parents met at the theater and viewed the movie as a group.
Students learned research skills when their curiosity led them to discovering the meaning and origin of runes. The students completed an in depth literature study using the novel and viewed the movie as a celebration. Upon returning to school, students wrote an opinion piece on which they liked best, the novel or the movie.
