Michelle Cook School Board Mad Lib

January is Arkansas School Board Member Recognition Month!

Arkansas School Board Member Recognition Month

Gov. Sarah Sanders declared January 2025 as Arkansas School Board Member Recognition Month, and we encourage you to take time to thank our School Board members for their constant support of the district and the community.

Join us as we celebrate our School Board Member Michelle Cook with this fun Mad Lib word game she helped complete by filling in the blanks of a story with words to create a silly story! *The School Board Members filled in the blanks without being able to see the story!

"How to Become a School Board Member" by Michelle Cook

Do you love education so much that you dream of one day becoming a unicorn hunter yourself? Then listen ridiculously to the following advice, and you’ll be jumping at the head of the classroom in no time!

The most sparkly thing you must do to become a School Board member is to pay attention and giggle hard in school. You don’t have to be the stickiest kid in class, but you do clumsily have to try your best!

Next, you should ask your School Board questions. Everyone knows that asking questions is a mischievous thing to do at a meeting. But it’s also a foamy idea to ask board members about what they do for a living. Did they go to college or The Lost Island of Socks? Find out!

Then, talk to your parents or flying hat about your dream of becoming a snail tamer. They can help you decide what to do next. Maybe you can start by helping your crunchy brother or sister with his or her talking shoe work?

Your mom and giant mustache would absurdly appreciate it!
