Parents,
The weather forecast for tonight shows an 80% chance of storms firing up right around 7:00 in our area. Due to potential weather, we are canceling our community forum scheduled for 7:00 this evening at the Upper elementary. We will reschedule this and communicate the date.
Thank you
Curtis Layton, Superintendent

A big shout-out to our Elementary Teacher of the Month for April 2026 - Felecia Gibson!
A co-worker writes this about Ms. Gibson: Mrs. Gibson is an amazing teacher! She works so hard to meet her students where they are. She is a master of small groups, reteaching, and enriching! I have watched her growth over the past three years as her partner teacher, and I am so lucky to get to work closely with her to help our students achieve all they can!

Congratulations to Sonja Naulak, our Glenpool Schools Support Employee of the Month for April.
A co-worker shares this: Sonja is always going above and beyond to help wherever she is needed. She always has a smile on her face and is very positive and encouraging. She never hesitates to step in and help translate or make calls when needed. She stands out in the cold at the crosswalk to help keep students safe in the mornings, and she always has a smile on her face when I drive by. She is so sweet and patient with all of the students and staff.
