We have some bus drivers who have been unable to drive for various reasons, so we have had to make some last-minute adjustments. We are sorry for any inconvenience this has caused and appreciate your patience. This afternoon, we will use the same routes as yesterday, so your children should arrive home at roughly the same time as they did yesterday.
The Red Route, Mrs.Gray’s bus will be 30 minutes late again today.
The students will not be counted tardy and breakfast will be served when they arrive to school. We are sorry for any inconvenience.
Tomorrow is the deadline for all K-3rd Field Day t-shirt orders. No late orders will be accepted. The link to the order form is below.

STARBASE Oklahoma engages students through the inquiry-based curriculum with its "hands-on, minds-on" experiential STEM activities. Students attend the program with their school class one day a week for six weeks, one day of which is devoted to exploring STEM careers. Today, our 5th grade had an introduction to the engineering design process and metric measurements, and the physics piece was straw rockets.
