We are considering offering a FAFSA night for senior parents. Would this be something you as parents would take advantage of? It would be one evening. A lady from the Educational Opportunity Center at Carl Albert would come to the school and walk parents through the FAFSA application process. Please comment below or contact Mrs. Walden if this is something you would like for us to schedule.

5th/6th grade GT students participated in “Skype a Scientist” today. Students spent about an hour visiting with Ayla Pamukcu, a geologist. More specifically, she is a volcanologist/igneous petrologist who studies volcanoes and volcanic eruptions. She discussed many places around the world that she has visited while studying volcanoes, her favorite being Antarctica. The most interesting fact that our students learned was that Arkoma was deep in an ocean long ago!
