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!!

Superintendent

We will be celebrating the 100th Day of School on Monday, February 2. Students to are encouraged to dress up that day as if they were a 100 years old or shirts with 100 things on them.

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.

Monday, January 26th will be a SNOW DAY, not a distance learning day. Keep those distance learning packets in the backpacks. No school work on Monday! Go enjoy the snow.

Show your favorite teachers some love with a GLE Love Gram! You may send as many as you want. Follow this link to the form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfzlqoojxo0dfdXQnggBSfgL9jFiINeK6knaDf_vVBmn5k1cg/viewform

There will be no school on Monday, January 19, 2026, in observance of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day.

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.

Join us in celebrating School Board Appreciation Month by thanking the dedicated members of our community who lead Glenpool Schools toward a better, brighter tomorrow. Members include Mike Pendergrass (dist 1), Michael Rhine (dist 2), Courtney Neal (dist 3), William Thayer (dist 4), and Amber Lieser (dist 5).
