Justus-Tiawah Public Schools

Last night was our last home game and regular game of the season. We celebrated our only 8th grader, Ellie Howard. She has been a great asset to our JT softball program and will be missed. We finished the evening winning both A and B games, ending the season with a 7-0 record. Saturday, we travel to the state tournament in Shawnee. This will be the first time in several years that JT has been represented. We are excited to show up and show out. JT will be well represented, and we hope to do well. Wish these girls good luck if you see them out and about. 💛🖤G O W I L D C A T S🖤💛

The junior high students went to the Rogers County Fair on Thursday to celebrate the successes of their classmates. We are so proud of our Junior High Art Students for their courage to compete and place entries in the Rogers County Fair Fine Arts Division, as there were some incredibly competitive categories. While at the fair, the students also had an opportunity to watch a few sheep shows and gained a new appreciation for the work of an FFA student. We hope it has inspired some of them to pursue that avenue in high school. McKynzie Hughes's floral design placed fourth in the Junior High Mixed Media Division. Lilianna placed 5th in the Junior High Sculpture Division with her swan sculpture. Aubrey Self entered her floral sculpture in the Junior High Sculpture Division. Daniel Johnson entered his painting in the Junior High Division Watercolor/Pastel Division. Jessica Lor, Traijan Smoke, Jaxon Beasley, Mason Ragsdale, and Ryder Beard entered their drawings into the Junior High Charcoal/Pencil Division.

Another great week on the diamond for J-T Softball! We finished the week with two wins against two good teams. Their record is now 6-0. They have one more home game Monday, September 15th, at Pecan Park at 4:30 before heading to State on September 20th. I have said it before, and I'll repeat it. These girls are special to watch, so pack the stand or bring a lawn chair Monday night and cheer this group of ladies on! 🖤💛🥎
