Happy National School Counselor Week! 🎉 This week, we’re celebrating the amazing counselors who support, guide, and inspire our students every day. 💙 Whether it's lending a listening ear, helping with academic planning, or offering life advice, school counselors make a HUGE difference in our school communities. Let’s take a moment to show them some love and appreciation for all they do! 🧑🏫✨ #NationalSchoolCounselorWeek #ThankYouCounselors #SupportOurStudents

Yesterday, 4th graders went on an unforgettable field trip to experience the excitement of NBA basketball in an educational setting!
Partnering with Science Museum Oklahoma, the Oklahoma City Thunder presented STEM facts, videos, and activities that brought the science of basketball to life. Students, Teachers, and Chaperones had a slam-dunk kind of day!










This week we implemented a new and fun project in our hallways, thanks to the idea of 5th Grade Student, Tess Struttmann!
Located on each hallway are new "Postive Post-It Walls." Students can leave kind and uplifting notes to friends, teachers, and staff. Post-Its are allowed to be taken if specific to that student, or taken if it's meant for anyone! It's been not only a joy to see but just as much fun to participate in! #spreadjoy #spreadkindness #makeadifference #bixbyspartans

What a memorable experience! 💫 #MsOklahoma #Inspiration #FutureLeaders #5thGradeAdventures






Mrs. Davis shared this adorable photo with us of her students enjoying watching the snow come down.

Before winter break, 5th Grade finished reading the book, "Holes" by Louis Sachar. Mrs. Moore's class kicked off their spring semester by starting on their "Spotted Lizard Traps!"









Wishing you all a safe and fun break!

Our building secretary nailed Tacky Sweater Day with her Skibidi Rizzle Santa sweatshirt! She may now be Fourth Grade's biggest fan!

Our 5th grade Language Arts classes finished reading, "Holes" by Louis Sachar this past week. Today, Mrs. Foster's class celebrated by watching the movie and enjoying some book-specific snacks! So much fun!




Just a quick reminder about this week's dress-up days!

Today our students got to participate in the Gold Ball Tour!
I think our favorite part was seeing our Principals and Building Secretary waiting patiently at the door to watch them pull up! We were just as excited as the students were to see our Champions! Go Spartans!




Join us next week for some fun and festive Dress-up Days!

shhhh... It looks like more teachers have joined in on the Undercover Dress-up Days!

Mrs. Click's and Mrs. Susmilch's classes took a fieldtrip today to the High School Sensory Friendly Woodwinds Concert followed by a delicious lunch at The Pizza Shoppe. Thank you so much to our bus driver, the Bixby High School staff and students for hosting this incredible event, and for the staff and customers at The Pizza Shoppe for all of their sweet comments about our students (Go EI! So proud!) and for their hospitality. Go Spartans!







Shhhhh! Some of our 5th Grade team are participating in "Undercover Dress-up Days" this week! Only a few students have caught on so far!



Happy Friday! The Highschool Honor Choir visited our campus today and gifted us with a beautiful musical performance of holiday cheer! #feelgoodfriday
