Help us in recognizing LeAnn Click as our Elementary Teacher of the Month for February 2026.
From colleagues: "LeAnn is ready to help anyone who may need it, especially if things need to be done quickly! She works so hard and really works to get the older students to attack challenges with deeper level thinking." "Leann is someone you can count on. She is flexible, helps in any way possible, and she creates a safe and fun learning environment for the kids in STEM. "

Parents,
Glenpool Schools will be back in session on Friday, January 30, 2026.
Our maintenance crews have been preparing surfaces each day for our return. Campus roads and walkways are currently in good shape, but with temperatures dropping back below freezing, there may be trouble areas, so we are urging all to be cautious as you bring students to school.
Buses will operate on their regular routes, but there may be slight delays. We are taking extra precautions, and we urge you to communicate to students to be extra careful at bus stops.
We are very excited to be back in session!!
Curtis Layton
Superintendent

Glenpool Schools will again be on Distance Learning Thursday, January 29, 2026.
It was just determined that the roads are still dangerous for buses and walking students.
We appreciate your patience and willingness to keep our students and staff safe.
Parents,
We are going to have a distance learning day on Wednesday. Our main concerns are the neighborhood roads and parking areas. We were hoping that the sun would help melt this afternoon, but we saw little progress in our areas of concern.
We will keep you posted as soon as decisions are made so you can make appropriate arrangements.
Glenpool Schools will be on a Distance Learning Day on Tuesday, January 27, 2026. Students are responsible for work assigned by teachers. Participation (completion) equals attendance. Students, please complete every assignment.
Glenpool Schools will be out on a SNOW DAY Monday, Jan 25, 2026. This is not Distant Learning. Enjoy the day but be safe! Updates for Tuesday will be made when available.
Snow Day! Monday, January 26th. Stay safe and warm Warriors!
We ARE in session today -- normal hours, normal schedules, normal buses. (Friday, Jan 23, 2026)
Our January 2026 Friend of Education is Mr. Vern Wilson. He organized the Elementary's Touch-a-Truck event, bringing many large vehicles for children and families to see up close, helping them learn what makes our world turn.
