Interested in STEM??
Join The Gallogly College of Engineering from OU and The College of Engineering, Architecture, and Technology from OSU for the OU & OSU Engineering & Science Night! At this event, students will have the opportunity to explore the various engineering and science programs from both universities. Representatives will be ready to meet students and help answer questions they may have about the various programs! This is the first time our two Colleges are coming together in the OKC Metro area to connect with students interested in STEM fields.
This event is open to all high school aged students and their families. This is a great chance to get to compared OU and OSU programs directly and talk to representatives from different engineering and science programs at both institutions. There will also be representatives there from OU and OSU Admissions, who can answer questions about financial aid, applying to college and more.
OU + OSU Engineering and Science Night will be on Monday, March 20 from 6:00-8:00PM at the OSU DISCOVERY Center (300 NE 9th St, Oklahoma City, OK 73104). This program was really designed as a “come and go” experience, with representatives and tables available for different engineering and science programs.

Deer Creek Communication Platform
Deer Creek School District is embarking on a new communication platform to include a Deer Creek App that is designed to enable parents, staff and students to stay informed and up-to-date on events, important issues, general information, emergency notifications and site based activities. The Deer Creek App will work conjointly with the SchoolMessenger App (registration only required one time) as a notification system. Once a parent has registered with the SchoolMessenger App, they will only need to use the Deer Creek App for all things Deer Creek!
