Another fabulous week is in the books at Broken Arrow. This week our 3rd-5th grade students ROCKED THE TEST as they took their ELA State Assessments, 5th grade students met author Kate Klise and mastered volume, 1st graders learned even more about place value, students enjoyed slime time, 4th graders worked on their Wax Museum projects, we had another FABULOUS Bingo Night event and so much more. As we move into the home stretch of the school year, we appreciate your support with making sure students come to school, on time, each day! We will soon move into our Spring activities and end of the year assessments and it will be important for students to be at school ready to show and celebrate all that they have learned!

Please take a moment to see some updates for the coming week(s) at Broken Arrow including information that came out about the Boundary Committee Update.

Also, many of you may have seen the news release from Julie Boyle yesterday regarding my position for next school year. I am beyond thrilled to continue to serve the students and families at Broken Arrow through this transition. I am, and will continue to be, here for Broken Arrow! Thank you for your continued support.

Annual Student Registration is required for ALL students, except current seniors graduating this spring. It is separate from middle/high school course enrollment.

Why do we have Parents/Guardians complete the Annual Student Registration each year?

• Indicate if your student(s) is returning to the district next year

• Update addresses, contact information and emergency contacts

• Update student Health History

• Sign acknowledgments

• Plan staffing to meet student needs for the next school year. This is especially important as Broken Arrow is closing and I want to make sure your student's next school is planning for your student.

How do I get started?
