Broken Arrow Freshman Academy students recently teamed up with fourth graders from Spring Creek Elementary to explore creative writing and sentence structure. Using "The Important Book" as inspiration, they co-wrote about what makes our district special, inspiring each other along the way!
This collaboration allowed both groups to learn from each other, with older students inspiring younger ones—and vice versa. We love seeing our students connect and grow!
Welcome to Fine Arts Friday! Today we are honoring students from the Broken Arrow Theatre program at the high school! At the recent OSSAA 6A One-Act Northeastern Regional, students Addy Roden and Victoria Parker were chosen for the all-star cast for their work in "Into The Forests Of The Night," where the overall cast took fourth. At the Union One-Act competition a few weeks earlier, students Patrick O'Brien and Tatum Stiles were also chosen as all-star cast members. Congratulations to everyone!
GOOD NEWS: Broken Arrow High School student John Roskob was recently named a National Merit Commended Student! Hooray!
