Smackover-Norphlet School District
Smackover-Norphlet School District No. 39 (SNSD), formerly Smackover School District 39, is a school district based in Smackover, Arkansas. It has territory in Union County, Ouachita County, and Columbia County.[1][2][3]
The district serves Smackover, Norphlet, Calion,[1] Louann,[2] and Mount Holly.[4]
History
On July 1, 2004 the Mount Holly School District was consolidated into the Smackover district.[4]
On May 8, 2014 the Arkansas Board of Education (ABE) approved the merger of the Norphlet School District into the Smackover School District,[5] effective July 1, 2014,[6] forming the Smackover-Norphlet School District.
In June 2018 superintendent Dave Wilcox resigned and was replaced by John Gross.[7]

gollark: You can't use a claim as evidence for itself.
gollark: > About the latter half of the question, the inverse square root law would imply that the rules that generally put down magnetism are removed.What? No. It wouldn't imply that, because galactic orbits run on gravity and have nothing to do with electromagnetism.
gollark: Galaxy rotation just runs on regular gravity-driven orbits like, well, the solar system and whatnot, no? I don't know if your claim about the "inverse square root law" thing is accurate, but it doesn't seem to mean very much.
gollark: What do you mean "galaxies rotations are described using a inverse square root law" exactly?
gollark: Hmm, yes, I suppose stars count, so just "not important in large-scale interactions directly".
