UPDATE - We are proud to announce that AR Children's Hospital is our official sponsor for this event. We appreciate their commitment and dedication to our students. We look forward to celebrating this momentous feat with our friends at AR Children's!

UPDATE - Due to scheduling issues with state testing, Sylvan Hills High School and its feeder schools will be conducting this world record attempt on May 6, 2024. We're so excited to attempt to beat the previous world record with our fellow Sylvan Hills schools.

SHERWOOD, Ark. -- Schools in the Sylvan Hills feeder pattern have the opportunity to attempt to break a world record this spring! 

Third through 12th graders from the Sylvan Hills feeder pattern are teaming up to take on a challenge like no other - breaking the World's Longest Human Electric Circuit record! Yes, you read that right, a WORLD RECORD! The event will take place across two campuses, Sylvan Hills High and Sylvan Hills Elementary on April 24, 2024. The schools in this feeder pattern include Cato Elementary, Oakbrook Elementary, Sherwood Elementary, Sylvan Hills Elementary, William Jefferson Clinton Elementary, Sylvan Hills Middle, Sylvan Hills Junior High and Sylvan Hills High.

Here's the best part – it's not just about breaking records. It's about connecting with our community, our future, our peers, and, most importantly, each other. Get ready for a jolt of excitement as we come together for this electrifying experience!

Whether you're a student or just young at heart, mark your calendar and let's make history by creating the World's Longest Human Electric Circuit together! It's not just an event; it's a connection you won't want to miss.
