A Message from the Principal

It is a great time to be a Bear! Sylvan Hills High School has shown great growth in population over the last few years and is one of the fastest growing schools in Central Arkansas. We boast award-winning programs in Journalism, Engineering, EAST, Choir, Band, Art, and have championship caliber athletic teams. This past school year our baseball and girls’ track teams both won state titles.

Sylvan Hills is part of the Arkansas Advanced Initiative for Mathematics and Sciences (AAIMS) to strengthen the teaching of Advanced Placement courses in mathematics, science, and English. Each year our student participation in the Advanced Placement program continues to grow and the number of Advanced Placement exams administered continues to increase. The percentage of students achieving qualifying scores for college credit increased as well. In addition, our school has a partnership with the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in which participating students receive college credit for concurrent credit courses taken on our campus.

Construction is underway to extend our current campus. We are adding a three-story classroom building with state-of-the-art science labs and technology. We will also be adding a performing arts center, basketball arena, and an indoor multipurpose facility. Construction is scheduled to be completed on the classroom building by the end of this current school year and will allow SHHS to accommodate up to 2,200 students. With these additions, we will continue to uphold our motto of “Sylvan Hills High School builds champions….on the field…in the classroom….in life!”
