Mr. Rowe: Evan Duncan lost his battle with cancer this weekend. I got to volunteer at YMS and had a great visit helping prepare for the snow storm.
Mr. Wells: Kaylie has prooved that not only are our girls smart, but they are tough too. COVID has made it a tough year for extra-curriculuars this year. The bands submission for the first virtual Southwestern Oklahoma State Jazz Festival competition was played as background music entering the room tonight. The swim team had a great showing considering the difficulties this year has dealt them. They are improving and will do even better next year. Thanks to the district for offering COVID vaccinations. Mr. Coulson: No comments Mr. Cunningham: Every month I learn so much as a board member. Last month I was at two of the intermediate schools, the principals were amazing in sharing information about bond issue monies being used to remodel the facilities. It is important as a voter to understand that your vote allowed that update to happen - including the murals. I was able to sub and sit in on some classes and am amazed at the work that was being done in those rooms. Project graduation tee shirts are for sale. Mrs. Cannon: I find it interesting that people are yelling at and demanding things of our school secretaries that these people are not at liberty to do. These ladies do amazing things for our schools and students. Please take a minute to thank a site secretary and treat them with dignity and respect. |
