Broken Arrow Named US News and World Report Best Elementary School
I received great news this week! US News and World Report published their first-ever rankings of public elementary schools, and the news is good for Broken Arrow Elementary: our school placed among the top 30% of elementary schools in the state of Kansas, making it a U.S. News Best Elementary School!
Here’s a look at what we published about our school, including our ranking(s): https://www.usnews.com/education/k12/kansas/badge-eligible-school-240203.
Fall Parties at Broken Arrow
The end of October is quickly approaching, and we will be celebrating with class parties and school-wide fall celebrations. While some of the parties might have some Halloween elements, we will not be bringing costumes to school this year. We will be having spirit week for Red Ribbon Week so there will be a fun day, but not something that children would need a costume or need to celebrate Halloween to participate.
BROKEN ARROW FAMILY BRAVOS!
