Spartan families,
In order to ascertain the level of need in our community, we ask that you fill out this survey if your Bixby student does NOT have access to the internet and/or a device to complete schoolwork at home.
The survey will need to be completed separately for each child enrolled at BPS.

Thank you!
Bring any Chromebooks that need repair to the HS Commons this week from 10-1 or next week from 8-4. Devices will be repaired in June and redistributed in August. If you need access to a device for summer school, schedule an appt to get a loaner by emailing cwilkinson@bixbyps.org.

Peach Jar Pro Tip!
Parents, BPS "muted" Peach Jar, so to speak, during distance learning with the exception of internal flyers, as to not overwhelm families with more information coming electronically. We will be "unmuting" as of today.
Remember, you can control how often you receive Peach Jar emails! See pics for details!
Thank you to all that attended the Graduation Parade and congratulations to the Class of 2020.
Getting ready for the Class of 2020 Senior Parade
Mr. Gerald Davenport will be the Honorary Marshal of tonight’s Senior Parade immediately following Officer Kendrick. Mr. Davenport is retiring this year after 6 years of teaching at BHS. He has built the AP Physics classes from under 10 to over 100 students in these 6 years. He was an attorney in Texas for 30 years prior to teaching. Honored as the 2018-2019 BHS Teacher of the Year, he’s an amazing educator who builds strong relationships with students and guides them to success. He has changed the lives of countless students by building their confidence and inspiring them to greatness.
We hope to see you tonight, Spartans! Please review the route, map, and guidelines and make sure you’re observing social distancing protocols. If you are tuning in via FB Live, you will want to visit the Bixby High School page at 6:30 PM!

AP Students - Update
Greetings AP Student,
We understand the coronavirus has caused significant adjustments to everyday life, including education. We know all the changes and the unknown are causing stress, confusion, frustration, and sometimes even anger.
Here is a quick update regarding the College Board’s plan regarding the 2020 AP Exam Administration. There are many details to come so we strongly recommend that students do not take any action until they have all the details to make an educated decision regarding the AP Exams.
On Friday, the College Board posted this preliminary update https://apcentral.collegeboard.org/about-ap/news-changes/coronavirus-update.
Here are highlights of the plan for AP Exam Administration:
There will NOT be any face-to-face AP exams this year
Students will take AP exams at home
Exams will be 45 minutes
Exams will NOT contain multiple-choice questions
Exams will be administered online
Students will be able to take the exam on one of two separate dates to be announced by the College Board April 3, 2020
Exams will be assessing a reduced scope of content, content that would “typically” have been covered before March
Students will have the option of canceling their exam(s), and CB will waive the $40.00/exam late fee they would have charged the school
College Board will be providing additional online resources, see https://apstudents.collegeboard.org/coronavirus-updates#free-ap-classes.
Once additional details are provided by the College Board, we will contact you regarding how you will indicate whether you wish to take your exam on the first date, the second date, or if you wish to cancel. Thank you for your patience and for waiting for further instructions that will be forthcoming in April on how to proceed.
