Good Afternoon,
This is an update to the post made this morning about the list of schools across the nation regarding a bomb threat. The Idabel PD has investigated (and is still investigating) this claim. The list they have been provided does not list any school in Idabel. The PD feels there is no credible threat against any school in Idabel or McCurtain County. We will continue to operate on a heightened alert status.
Thank you,
Dr. Alan Bryant, Ed.D.

Good Morning,
In an effort to communicate with our families and community we wanted to make you aware that Idabel Public Schools was notified this morning at 7:30 a.m. that our district was on a list with other school districts across the nation regarding a bomb threat. No specific school sites were mentioned. We have spoken with Idabel Police Department and they are placing extra patrol at our school sites.
Thank you,
Dr. Alan Bryant, Ed.D.

🌟 Exciting Times at Idabel Public Schools! 🌟
We are excited to share the incredible developments happening across our district! Our students and staff are seizing new opportunities, showcasing their talents, and embracing programs designed to enhance learning and foster a sense of community.
At Central and Primary South, we’ve introduced standards-based math and strategic reading interventions to provide personalized support for student success. We’re also piloting innovative programs like basketball, art, book club, and flag patrol, offering diverse learning experiences both inside and outside the classroom. Our students shined at the McCurtain County Fair, including participants in the Special Olympics Unified Partners. Their artistic talents were on display, with several projects earning ribbons in the Educational Building. The after-school programs at both sites are running at full capacity, offering a range of activities that allow students to explore their interests. The Sweet Sounds and Broadway Kids singing groups are in full swing. Additionally, students from both schools participated in recent pageants for their schools. We are also fostering a passion for agriculture through the “What Agriculture Means to Me” program. As we look ahead, don’t forget to mark your calendars for key events like Parent-Teacher Conferences on Oct. 14 and the Character Counts Carnival on Oct. 31. Our Student Recognition Program is also underway, rewarding students for their hard work and achievements.
Our staff is growing, too. Teachers are participating in a book study of "Teaching with Love and Logic," enhancing their ability to build strong, positive relationships with students. PTO meetings are set to begin this month, where families will be involved in exciting school projects.
At the Middle School and High School, school spirit is high! From softball, football, cross country track, and cheerleading to pep rallies and band performances, our students have been showing tremendous school pride. This week’s Rival Week dress-up days have added even more excitement, and Student Council activities are well underway, helping students develop leadership skills. After-school programs continue to thrive with activities like archery, STEM, and FFA. We had a fantastic showing at the McCurtain County Fair, where many of our students participated in various events and won numerous awards. Our Ag teachers have been phenomenal in guiding students to success, dedicating countless hours to their growth and development. Recently, Idabel High School hosted an impactful Suicide Prevention Assembly, demonstrating our commitment to student well-being. On Sept. 27, we look forward to celebrating Manit Day, led by our Marshallese student group. This event will unite our community and highlight the rich Marshallese culture, promoting understanding and unity.
Idabel Public Schools is thriving, and we couldn’t be prouder of the achievements of our students and staff. We’re fortunate to be part of such a supportive and engaged community. As always, I am available to discuss any concerns or questions. Please feel free to reach out to me at the District Office at (580) 286-7639.
Together, we are stronger! 💪 Go Warriors! 🏹
