With the addition of a running team for students in grades 7 and up, Clear Spring School decided to host its first annual RunEureka event in October 2009. This event brought people from as far away as Little Rock and Oklahoma City to enjoy a beautiful autumn day while competing in a local scavenger hunt run. Runners in teams of 2-4 followed clues and completed challenges in an approximately 3-mile course (depending on how turned around they got. The race finished with entertainment from local band, The Ariels, and prizes were awarded to the top winners. This event will return each October.
Trashathon
Since 1977, students from Clear Spring School have been active participants in improving their community by picking up litter and junk - everything from candy wrappers to bed springs - along the roadsides and open spaces of Carroll County in an organized effort known as Trashathon.
The biggest haul was in 2005 students picked up 147 bags of garbage, 315 equivalent bags of scrap metal, and 139 bags of recyclables.
Clear Spring School's Trashathon has been honored with an "Award of Excellence" through the state of Arkansas' Keep Arkansas Beautiful campaign.
