Cigarettes Money

The Arkansas Education Department says three schools in the state will get $150,000 each next school year to pay for school-based health centers.

A news release Friday said the money will go to Cross County Elementary, Magazine Elementary and Acorn Elementary in the Ouachita (WASH'-uh-taw) School District.

The release says the grants will be renewed each year for five years, with the amount reduced each year. The agency said the expectation is that district and community resources will sustain the centers after the five years. The state money comes from a settlement several years ago of a lawsuit against major cheap cigarettes companies.

Jerri Clark of the Education Department said the centers will offer more services than a school nurse and will focus on preventive care, screenings, education outreach and checkups.
