🎉 WE DID IT! 🎉

Great news, Hornet family! A few years ago, we learned our schools needed extra help to raise our scores. And our teachers, principals, and scholars went to work. Today, we are proud to say we are officially off the state's "needs help" list! We climbed out of the bottom 5% and reached our big goals!

This is a huge win for our whole town, and we want to celebrate with YOU!

📅 When: This Monday at 5:30 PM
🧁 What: A fun reception with mini cupcakes & M&Ms!
📍 Who: We are celebrating Vinita Elementary: Hall-Halsell Elementary & Will Rogers Elementary and Vinita High School!
🗺️ Where: Vinita HS Cafeteria

Thank you for helping us build a stronger, safer community for our kids. See you Monday for some sweet treats!

Calling all Hornets, Neighbors, and Vinita Alum! We need your voice. What does it truly mean to wear the royal blue and white? 🔵⚪ Earlier this May, we sat down with our Student Advisory Council to start defining the core traits of the Hornet Identity. After collaborating with our staff, community members, and families, we are ready to open the floor to the entire community and our incredible alumni network. We want to know: 1️⃣ What is the number-one, non-negotiable trait a Vinita student should possess? 2️⃣ How can we make sure every new face feels like they belong in "The Hive" from day one? 3️⃣ What should people think of when they see our colors out in the community? Whether you graduated decades ago, have kids in our classrooms today, or run a business right here on Route 66, your perspective matters. Help us lock in our district's core values by taking our quick 3-minute survey. 👉 Tap the link to share your voice: https://forms.gle/iUo1ynbA9PsJ2wzb9 Schools

Community & Remembrance

Today, Vinita Public Schools joins our community and nation in celebrating Memorial Day—a sacred time dedicated to mourning and honoring the deceased service men and women who gave everything to protect our freedoms.

Although our schools are closed for the summer, our gratitude remains constant. We encourage our Hornet families to take a moment today to remember the true cost of our liberty and to honor the local heroes who never made it home.

May we always remember. 🇺🇸🌾
