Panther Cross Country Team Shows Exceptional Character and Support in DeQueen Meet
Magnolia, AR — At the Leopard Invitational in De Queen, AR, on Tuesday, September 23, 2025, one Panther runner faced an unexpected setback when he twisted his knee during the race. While the injury affected his performance, what stood out most was the incredible display of teamwork, compassion, and Panther spirit shown by his fellow athletes.
As the runner worked to make it back to the tent, his teammates immediately rallied to his side. Several athletes, along with the runners' parent, helped him walk, while others provided encouragement and support every step of the way. Head coach of Panther Cross Country, Ryan Franks, quickly contacted Magnolia Panther Athletic Trainer John Caston, who guided teammates Presley Hanson and Dejuan Dismuke, who are in the Magnolia School District’s Athletic Training program, on wrapping his knee to prevent future injuries.
In addition to their physical support, the team showed heartfelt admiration for their teammate’s perseverance and determination to finish the race despite his injury. Their collective encouragement, quick action, and unwavering care exemplify what it means to be a Panther.
“This team is so amazing,” the athlete's mom said. “Their capacity to rally around one another in times of need is a hallmark of their exceptional character. As a team parent, I am deeply grateful to have witnessed this team’s growth and development over the years and eagerly look forward to their future achievements.”
The Magnolia School District celebrates the Panther Cross Country team not only for their athletic performance, but also for the outstanding sportsmanship, empathy, and unity they continue to display.

🌟🐾 Panther Spotlight 🐾🌟
Magnolia High School freshman Maram Barjas was recently caught being proactively kind, caring, and supportive of her classmates!
In Advanced World History, Maram went out of her way to support classroom expectations. When a student exited the classroom, she immediately stepped up to check and secure the door—without being prompted. Later that same day, she showed another act of service by gathering textbooks at the end of class and returning them to the bookshelf, simply because she saw the need.
By noticing and caring for others, Maram truly exemplifies what it means to be a student leader at MHS. We are proud of her Panther Pride in action! ❤️🤍

A big THANK YOU to Dylan and Tammy Keith (Keith and Company) for taking the time to speak with Mr. Franks' classes today. Our students learned so much about the world of real estate — from buying and selling homes to building strong communities. We appreciate their investment in our school.




Congratulations to Yasmin Flores, MHS September Artist of the Month! Yasmin states, "Art provides an avenue for expressing and exploring individual emotions and experiences. It also stimulates the imagination, improves empathy, and promotes understanding of different perspectives and realities."
