Happy National Parent Involvement Day!
Today, we celebrate the incredible impact of parents, guardians, and families who partner with our schools to support student success. Your involvement—whether volunteering, attending school events, helping with homework, or simply encouraging your child’s learning journey—makes a difference. We're building a brighter future for every student, one step at a time together. We have an exciting opportunity for our families through a series called Engage: Parenting with Purpose sessions.
We invite you to attend Engage: Parenting with Purpose, a series designed to equip parents with effective strategies for fostering connection and empowerment in their relationships with their children.
When: January 21st, 6:00–8:00 PM
Where: The Learning Services Center, 4731 Judy Dr. Oklahoma City, OK 73115
This eight-week program consists of two-hour sessions each week, focused on parenting approaches that strengthen the parent-child bond. During our time together, we will explore a variety of corrective strategies that promote positive communication and healthy discipline, while offering practical tools to help guide your child through life's challenges.

Due to ongoing weather threats this morning that would impact the morning drive and bus routes, we have canceled school for today, November 18, 2024. This is an inclement weather day, NOT a virtual day. Stay safe!
