Gardner repped her school in her mugshot The Pulaski County Special School District posted a statement on their website and on their Facebook page yesterday about an employee being arrested by Sherwood Police but did not identify the school or the employee. Several of our PCSSD sources sent us messages and told us that the person arrest was a 10th grade biology at Sylvan Hills High School and that her name was Melanie Gardner. Records from PCSSD confirmed Gardner was a teacher at Sylvan Hills High. And her Facebook page states that she is a biology teacher at the school.

Young-Haskins filed a lawsuit in July 2026, claiming that she was overlooked for a promotion because her complaint against ex-Deputy Chief Paul Junger led to him being fired. Since Junger’s termination, Young-Haskins has been increas...

Records obtained from the Little Rock School District under the Arkansas Freedom of Information Act reveal that the District is one of Flock's most active users. Flock Safety, one of the fastest growing police surveillance companies in the United States, holds a number of contracts with school districts across the United States. https://sassisouth.org/projects/flock-safety-and-s%E2%80%A6 These contracts are primarily for the placement of automated license plate readers (ALPRs) but Flock is attempting to sell more products to districts. On August 17, 2026 we sent this AFOIA request to LRSD. The LRSD staff attorney's office sent this out to the director of Safety & Security and Computer Information Services. LRSD provided us with a 6,142 page PDF of emails in response to our request. One email from Flock to the LRSD Safety & Security Director William El-Amin (the District has Americanized the spelling of his last name) makes that crystal clear. From the records provided, ...
