OKLAHOMA CITIZENS FOR EDUCATION
Oklahoma is full of potential. And it starts with our students.
There’s a lot of conversation right now about literacy in our state and rightfully so.
We all agree it matters.
Where we sometimes get off track is how we get there.
At Oklahoma Citizens for Education, we believe the answer isn’t complicated:
It starts in our classrooms.
With our students.
With the people who power learning every single day.
Our students are the future.
Our teachers and schools are what make that future possible.
And our communities are what powers it.
Instead of always looking outside of Oklahoma for answers,
we believe we should start by looking within.
Because the talent is here.
The creativity is here.
The potential is here.
The Oklahoma Shift Bookmark Design Challenge was a reminder of that.
Nearly 400 students from across the state submitted designs showing what reading means to them and what we saw was powerful.
Now those student designed bookmarks are circulating across Oklahoma in bookstores, libraries, and schools celebrating reading and supporting classrooms along the way.
We just shared the full story.
Take a moment to read it, meet the students behind the designs, and see what’s possible when we lift up our schools.

Our fourth grade team brings dedication, leadership, and passion to the classroom every day. Thank you for making a difference in the lives of our students!
We appreciate you!

The Oklahoma Shift bookmark design challenge winners! Aaliyah Teehee and Maloree Beach with their winning certificate and bookmarks.

Also a shout out to Adalynn Shultz, Bonnie Jordan andJocelyn Ramirez for providing what they considered the best quotes when questioned "What do you like most about reading with adults and friends?" Those quotes are also listed on their announcements and promotion materials! Great job Raiders - I am always proud of you and most of all, YOU are proud of you - as you should be!

First - I want to say, win or lose, I am proud of any student who puts themself out there and does anything to improve their minds, creativity and hearts - so all who entered - kudos to you!
The rural Oklahoma Museum of Poetry offered a poetry contest for students K-12 with each grade level writing over a traditional Oklahoma symbol. We had many entries and Ms. Bexlynn Bruner, 1st grade in Paula Unger's class placed second with her poem about the Oklahoma Symbol for the fur bearing animal the raccoon. She won 2nd place and the only winner in Adair and Cherokee county at all so shout out to her! Her poem was called the Oklahoma Trickster. Way to go Bexlynn! Her poem will be published in an anthology that will be available for purchase at Barnes and Noble! (I will send the link soon for anyone interested.)
There will be an "open to the public" Wonder City Wordfest festival in Locust Grove on April 11th to celebrate words and community. They will have kite decorating and flying with the Tulsa Wind Riders, awards, door prizes, impromptu contest and more! This is also a chance to tour the ROMP's (Rural Oklahoma Museum of Poetry) museum and exhibit. The feature exhibit is Rhyming and ROMPing on Route 66, which celebrates the Mother Road's centennial.
There will be an award presentation during the festival at noon where the winners will recieve their cash prizes and read their poems. Bring the family and enjoy a day outside, discover a new place to visit in Oklahoma that is close by and see Bexlynn win her prize money and read her poem. For more information visit the website ROMPoetry.com under events.
As always, thank you for your support of our gifted and talented program!
