Members heard from guest speaker Emerie Ross, Miss Greater Camden’s Teen 2026, who shared how FBLA helps build leaders, encourages exploration of new topics, strengthens networking skills, and teaches students to grow through failure. She also invited two WHMS FBLA members to participate in a live question-and-answer panel. Owen Todd and Layla Hudson represented WHMS with confidence and strong speaking skills on stage.

NEW ARKANSAS LAW: “Bell to Bell, No Cell”
Starting with the 2025–2026 school year, all Arkansas public schools—including White Hall School District—will enforce the “Bell to Bell, No Cell” Act (SB 142 / Act 122).
🔒 What’s Changing?
*Personal cell phones, smartwatches, tablets, laptop, and any device that sends/receives data must stay powered off and stored all day.
* Yondr pouches will be used to securely lock devices from the first bell to the final bell.
* Student drivers may keep devices locked in their vehicles.
📘 Why?
This state law supports focused, distraction-free learning. Schools not enforcing it may face penalties.
👨👩👧 How Families Can Help?
* Talk with your child about expectations.
* Support a smooth transition to device-free learning.
📌Full details will be in the updated Student Handbook and on our website.
