TASD OKs purchases for Arkansas Middle School

TEXARKANA, Ark. — The Texarkana Arkansas School District Board of Trustees approved the purchase of furniture and Promethean boards for Arkansas Middle School in a special meeting Wednesday night.

The board’s approval of bids for furniture, trash cans and Promethean boards are all for Arkansas Middle School, which is currently under construction and is slated to open in the spring of 2021.
