Adair Public Schools is proud to announce that senior Hannah Bond has signed her National Letter of Intent to continue her academic and athletic career at Northeastern State University in Tahlequah, where she will play women’s basketball. Hannah has been a standout leader on and off the court, and her hard work, dedication, and competitive spirit have earned her this exciting opportunity.

The construction management team at Schilt Management Services has been honored with the 2025 ABC Oklahoma Excellence in Construction Award for their outstanding work on the new Bernita Hughes Elementary School.

This recognition highlights the team’s exceptional dedication, craftsmanship, and commitment to delivering a state-of-the-art learning environment for our students and community. The new Bernita Hughes Elementary stands as a testament to their expertise and collaboration throughout every phase of the project.

Congratulations to everyone involved in achieving this well-deserved honor!

Mrs. Fraley brought the tropics to the middle school Health Class! This hands-on taste test was a fun, delicious way to introduce new foods. The biggest surprise? Nearly every student walked away with a new favorite fruit!

In October, our high school art students enjoyed a hands-on learning experience at the Saline Courthouse Museum in Rose, Oklahoma. They explored an inspiring art exhibit by Cherokee National Treasure Louisa Soap, toured the museum with an interpretive guide, tried their hand at a traditional Chunky demonstration, and captured outdoor scenes through sketching with viewfinders. A memorable day full of creativity and cultural discovery!

Last week's warrior winners were Lane Fisher, Knox Greer, Matthew Shelton, Cohen Capansky, Ava Fisher, and Kottyn Greer. Way to go, guys!

Our 3rd–5th-grade GT students took their learning outdoors this week! During a hands-on geometry lesson, students explored the school grounds in search of real-world geometric shapes found in nature. From identifying angles in tree branches to spotting symmetry in leaves, the activity encouraged curiosity, critical thinking, and a deeper appreciation for the natural world.

Our 4th and 5th-graders are enjoying Lunch Bunch with Mrs. Katlyn Crawford! Throughout the year, every student gets the chance to join her for lunch, conversation, and a fun activity. This week’s group had a great time building friendships and sharing laughs over a lively game of UNO.

Our Pre-K and Kindergarten teams have transformed their hallway with a festive “Balloons Over BHE” theme! Bright colors, creative artwork, and student-made decorations fill the space, bringing joy and excitement to our youngest learners as they walk through a hallway that feels truly magical.

We want to extend a heartfelt thank-you to our Opaa! staff, the PTO, and the High School Student Council for their outstanding help with last Tuesday’s Veterans Breakfast.

This week, I’m excited to spotlight our “Happy Plates” moment. It all began when a young student proudly held up his empty plate with a huge smile, so Mrs. Kemp started looking for other students who were just as excited about finishing their meals. It’s wonderful to see how much our kids enjoy the food we serve. Meanwhile, our “lunch buddies” spent time together enjoying a friendly game of UNO with Mrs. Katlyn.

We’re also looking forward to a bustling cafeteria this Thursday as we serve our annual Thanksgiving Feast!
