De Queen Middle School Student Council Raises Money for Shop with a Cop
The De Queen Middle School Student Council recently sold t-shirts for their community service project. The students raised $599 and donated the funds to the local Shop with a Cop program. The local Shop with a Cop program is held each year during the holiday season by the De Queen Police Department and the Sevier County Sheriff's Department.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the year 2020 has been a trying year for just about everyone including the Shop with a Cop program. Donations have been minimal, and the funds donated by the DMS Student Council were a welcome gift. If you would like to donate to Shop with a Cop, please contact Beth Hughes with the De Queen Police Department at 870-642-2210 or Chad Dowdle with the Sevier County Sheriff’s Department at 870-642-2125.

De Queen Public Schools would like to thank Tyson Foods Inc. for their generous donation of $5,000. The grant money was used to help purchase new picnic tables and benches for the outdoor seating areas at the middle school and junior high. The picnic tables are located underneath the newly constructed pavilion that students use during lunch and the benches are located underneath the awning at the bus unloading zone.
