Tis' the season for coughs and colds. Here a few reminders to keep in mind regarding illness and the school policies.
Please do not send your child to school if they have a fever, have diarrhea or vomiting, have a cough with other symptoms such as a sore throat, or have other symptoms that are covid related.
Due to liability issues the nurse cannot diagnose illnesses or prescribe treatments. The school nurse will administer covid tests within the following time frames: 8:30 to 9:30 and 12:30 - 1:30.
Additionally, we must have a signed consent form from the parent on file before administering a covid test. If you have questions please call 580-723-4582 and ask for Nurse Whitney.
The elementary students are counting down the 12 school days before Christmas Break. Today was "We'll Have a Blue Christmas Without You" Day - wear blue. Tomorrow is "I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas" Day - wear white.
Help Your Child Succeed in School: School success goes hand in hand with being in school every day!
DID YOU KNOW? All families have hopes and dreams for their children. Being in school every day will enable children to do well in school, and graduate from high school ready for work or college.
WHAT CAN YOU DO? Reach out to a family member, a neighbor, or another parent if you are having trouble getting your student to school.

This week some of our Agricultural Education students traveled to Oklahoma Panhandle State University for the annual FFA Interscholastic Contest. Our students participated in the land judging event. Land judging serves as a tool to teach youth about the field of soil science and the use and management of soils. It is a program designed to guide them toward the understanding and importance of:
1. Basic soil properties as they affect the use and management of soils.
2. Management practices applicable to the care and management of soil and water. #BetterTogether #FrontierMustangs
