For the 2012–14 seasons, [4] the Booneville Bearcats participate in the 4A Region 4 Conference. Competition is primarily sanctioned by the Arkansas Activities Association with students competing in American football, volleyball, baseball, basketball (boys and girls), competitive cheer, golf (boys and girls), softball, tennis (boys and girls), track and field (boys and girls), cross-country running, and weightlifting. [5]

Booneville returned to Class 4A for the 2016-18 cycle. Since 2018 the Bearcats compete in Class 3A.

Controversy

The school achieved a brief stint of internet fame in February 2018, after a video of a fight, allegedly involving students from Booneville, went viral on social media. [6] It was later revealed that the circumstances behind the video were blown out of proportion by numerous fake news outlets: the two individuals involved were cousins and had later reconciled. [7]
