For 2012–14, the Drew Central Pirates participate in the 3A Classification from the 3A Region 8 Conference as administered by the Arkansas Activities Association.[7]

  • Boys' sports comprise football, cross country, basketball, baseball, tennis, cheerleading, track and dance. In 1983 and 1984, the boys basketball team won consecutive state championships & in 1975, the boys basketball team won state.
  • Girls' sports consist of cross country, basketball, tennis, cheerleading, dance team, track and softball. In 1987, the girls basketball team won a basketball championship. In spring 2000, the girls tennis team won a tennis championship.

Discipline

Disciplinary programs for student misconduct at Drew Central are Detention Hall, in-school suspension, and out-of-school suspension, depending on the seriousness of the infraction. In extreme cases a student may be recommended for expulsion from the school.

Detention Hall takes place each day at 7:00 am.[8]

Drew Central High also offers a corporal punishment program, under which a student chooses a paddling (swats) instead of attending Detention Hall. Students wishing to receive swats must report to the office at the beginning of their lunch period on the day they are scheduled to attend Detention Hall. After being spanked in the office they are then free to join the normal school lunch.[8]

In the case of tardies, the corporal punishment option is available only after the third tardy in each nine-week grading period. After a sixth tardy the student is assigned to In-School Suspension.

The school administration may also decide to administer a paddling in other cases, particularly for fighting, except where parents have signed a form requesting exemption from corporal punishment. In the latter case, alternative discipline will be assigned, which may include suspension.[8]

The district also operates the Drew County School-Within-A-School (SWAS) Program, a boot camp providing an alternative to long-term suspension or expulsion of junior high and high school aged students in the Drew Central and Monticello School Districts. Students are exposed to a rigorous program of physical training, leadership development, community service and academics in a highly disciplined environment. The program is staffed by full-time certified police officers.[9]
