Fun times in Boys and Girls Club!
In an effort to reward our students for coming to school every day, and to encourage those who don't, we are starting some exciting incentives! As stated on the flyer, students with perfect attendance for the week will receive their choice of a pop or a candy bar on Fridays. For classes who have perfect attendance for the whole month, their class will be rewarded with a pizza party! And finally, each semester students who have perfect attendance for the whole semester (excused absence must have a Dr. note for the student) will have their name entered for a chance to win a 65" Smart Onn Roku TV! You read correctly! Your child could win a Smart TV just for coming to school every day! The first drawing will take place live on Dec. 19! Good luck everyone! Help us get our attendance rate up!
Dahlonegah After-school program is excited to announce the new incentive for students who bring up their grades by one letter grade and have no "F's" on their report card each 9 weeks. Students who accomplish this will have their name put in a drawing to win a brand new pair of CROCS shoes! Students also have a chance to win a pop/popcorn party for themselves and their friends. Students must not be on the list for poor behavior to participate. (Teachers keep a list during power-hour)Good luck everyone! Work hard, you can do it!
Look who won the Golden Lunch Tray Award! Congratulations to Mrs. Braden's 1st grade class and Mrs. Woods 6th grade class! Way to go!
Some 5th-8th grade students enjoyed cultural day at Camp Sevenstar; celebrating Native American Heritage Month. Students learned about the history of stickball and then played a game. Students also shot blow guns and participated in cultural storytelling. We even learned a little about rattlesnakes! We enjoyed a traditional meal of hog meat, brown beans, potatoes, and fry bread. Thank you to the Native American resource center and Camp Sevenstar for hosting us. We had a great time.
The Stilwell Kiwanis club "BUGS" program has recognized these students for raising their grades or maintaining good grades for the first quarter. Congratulations everyone and keep up the good work! Students received a certificate of recognition, a bookmark, and a coupon for a free ice cream cone from Sonic. Zyler won the drawing for a Walmart gift card!
5th-8th Grade students will travel to Camp Sevenstar this morning to celebrate Native American Heritage Month. Students will enjoy cultural games and activities, storytelling, crafts, and a traditional meal. We will leave at 8:15 and will return before school dismisses for the day. Students do not need money.
These images are the last of many taken of the STEM trip to Arizona. We traveled many, many miles together during this trip and got to know each other better. We hung out with different tribes , Apache, and Navajo and learned some new things about their culture, tasted their foods, and saw the beauty of their tribal lands. Students bonded over their robotics and putting finishing touches on their presentation board. Parents got to know one another, and it felt very much like a family. We had an amazing time and we are so thankful to our Dahlonegah School Board for allowing us to go. Thank you to our first year STEM team for putting in the work and effort during and after class to get to go and compete. Thank you to the parent volunteers who went along to help care for the students, fixed sandwiches for lunch, and chaperoned the stay and event. Thank you to Mrs. Storm, Mrs. Scott, and Mr. Cain for helping with the financial planning and scheduling, and to those who covered classes and duties while we were gone. It take a village! Lastly, thank you to Mr. Faddis for planning and making the trip possible through the application process, and for the time and effort that you put into each of the students and their projects, and for driving the bus countless hours across many states to get everyone and everything safely to the competition and back home again. Thank you everyone! We are truly blessed at Dahlonegah School.

When we return to school we are committed to being proactive to communicable diseases. That will include but not be limited to head lice, stomach virus, colds, flu, COVID-19, and STREP. We will be doing head checks when we return to school. If live bugs or nits are found. That student will be sent home until they are treated. Parents must remain onsite until child is cleared to re-enter. If your child has a fever or has been throwing up they must stay home until they are free for 24 hours.
