Just some of the awesome pictures of our football team Kimberly Cordova snapped last week at our first home game. She will be here tomorrow to take our students yearbook photos.
That’s a wrap on an incredible season for our 8th grade volleyball girls! From day one to the final match, they played with passion, supported one another, and gave it their all. We’re so proud of everything they’ve accomplished — the wins, the tough battles, and the team bond that grew stronger with every game.
To our 8th graders — we can’t wait to see all you do in high school. The future is bright!

Leadership isn’t only about making big decisions—it’s also about the small, everyday moments that show care and compassion. This picture of our principal helping a student with her ponytail captures exactly who he is: someone who notices, steps in, and makes each child feel seen and supported. From guiding our school with wisdom to taking time for simple acts of kindness, he leads with both heart and dedication. We are so grateful for the love, patience, and commitment he pours into our students every single day. 💙
Happy Principal’s Appreciation Month—we are truly blessed to have such a wonderful leader!
Last week in the library, our 8th grade students dove into a fun and interactive activity to help them discover which book genres they might enjoy the most. Through a short quiz and some reflection, students explored their reading preferences and were introduced to genres they may not have considered before — from fantasy and mystery to historical fiction and nonfiction. Mrs. Garrett loves helping students find books that inspire a lifelong love of reading. Come check out our genre displays and see what might spark your interest

Our 8th grader, Payge Henderson has Arnold Chiari Malformation, and has had 2 skull decompression surgeries, as well as numerous other smaller surgeries, MRI's, XRays, and other treatments.

Shoutout to our amazing girls cross country team! 💪 These runners show up with grit, determination, and heart. Whether it’s early morning miles or finishing strong on race day, they’re proving that hard work pays off.
PTO Snack Friday! Don’t forget tomorrow during TEAMS to stop by and grab a treat!
Ms Matthews gave her students an assignment with minimal information and told them to figure it out as a group... and wow, it was incredible! They were really engaging, passionately arguing their points, and genuinely trying to figure out the solution together. It was honestly one of the best math arguments I've heard in a while. So proud of their critical thinking and teamwork!
Mrs. Paulk's 6th Grade Advanced Math has been busy exploring ratios, unit rates, and scale factors. They've been using hands on activities & manipulatives to SEE how math works!
Last night, the 8th graders were honored at their final home game (regular season) of their JH careers after a 9 inning game! These girls have showed so much grit & tremendous growth throughout this season! While it's a chapter closed in their lives, we're excited to see what their future holds with a possibility on the Varsity squad! Coach Parker and Coach Harper, THANK YOU for two INCREDIBLY fun and SUCCESSFUL JH years of ball! (Regular season A & B games combined = 27 - 6 record)

¡Emociones en español! Mrs. Freeny's Spanish class had so much fun learning how to express feelings in Spanish — from “feliz” (happy) to “enojado” (angry) to “emocionado” (excited)!
The marching band competed at the Broken Arrow Invitational Marching contest this weekend after marching the Pioneer Day parade. Skiatook cleaned house! The kids won their class and swept the all captions (Music, Visual, and General Effect.) They ended up 4th overall behind some very good 5A and 6A bands. Congratulate the band kids on an outstanding performance! Up next is Owasso this weekend.
