Good Afternoon,
One of our buses was involved in an accident a few minutes ago. This bus is used to shuttle students to and from the high school to Kiamichi Technology Center, and was in the process of shuttling students back to the high school. The bus was stopped at a stop sign and was rear ended by another vehicle which caused some damage to the rear bumper of the bus. There were two students on the bus at the time. Both students, and the driver are fine. Of course, law enforcement and EMS were on the scene and examined the students. Both students were taken back to Idabel High School.
Thank you,
Dr. Alan Bryant, Ed.D.
Superintendent of Schools

Parents & Families,
You should have received an email/text invitation to a new feature in our district app, and we wanted to share a few things about that invitation!
As educators, we recognize that effective communication is crucial to the success of our school community. With that in mind, we are excited to launch a new communication platform called Rooms! This feature will exist in the same app you’ve already downloaded for our district, and its purpose will be two-way communication between staff and families. Our goal is to create a one-stop-shop for ALL of your school communication needs.
To ensure that this new tool is successful, we will be rolling it out in multiple invites. We will have more information and all kinds of resources to share as we continue the rollout, and we will be fully implemented by the upcoming new semester, once we get back from Christmas break.
As we start our rollout, every single student and parent will be enrolled in at least one virtual Room based on their grade level: Elementary, Middle School, or High School. If you have children in more than one of those groups, you’ll be enrolled in multiple groups!
You may also see virtual Rooms for teachers, coaches, media specialists, and club leaders. These Rooms will be specific to the students enrolled in the individual class. Staff will be using Rooms as their primary communication tool beginning this new upcoming semester.
Thank you,
Dr. Alan Bryant, Ed.D.
Superintendent

Haven't created your Rooms account yet? No worries! Another round of invites will be sent Monday, Nov 25th. Teachers will be transitioning to Rooms for all two-way communication beginning at the new semester, so please ensure you've got your account set up prior to then. Please see the Rooms Support page on our website homepage if you have any questions.
