Attention 10th Grade Parents-- I was trying to learn how to activate emails so you can check grades. You may receive 3-4 emails on how to do this. My sincere apologies. You only need to activate one time. If you did not get an email, please contact the school. Mrs. Larman

Attached is a letter from the Oklahoma State Department of Education stating that Coyle Public Schools has been granted accreditation for the 2019-2020 school year. This is no different, nor has their been any change, from previous years of accreditation; however, Coyle Public Schools is trying to be more transparent to the district patrons and community with regard to our operations. The letter also states that the district received zero (0) deficiencies when audited by the Oklahoma State Department of Education for the 2018-2019 school year. During the audit, which is conducted annually, all teacher certifications and employee credentials are checked, along with all other State mandates and statutes. Coyle Public Schools has also added an Open Records Request folder, under the documents section on the school’s website, that will allow public view of any documents requested by individuals and the resulting documents produced by the school district. Coyle Public Schools’ Administration and Board of Education would like to thank all Coyle Schools Teachers and Staff for their hard work and dedication in order to continue achieving this accreditation status and we would also like to thank the parents and community members for their continued support of the school!

Coyle Public Schools has had several requests for the school to explore a conversation and information pertaining to the school district joining the Meridian Technology Center District in Stillwater, Oklahoma for Career Tech and Vocational type programs. Each Public School District in Oklahoma has the opportunity to join a Career Tech Center by a vote of the people of the School District. When a School District is a member of a Career Tech District, 11th-12th Grade students are able to attend the Technology Center at no cost to the student for several different vocational type programs and trades, along with adults in the district having the same opportunity to attend. The Technology School also provides transportation for those students by picking up and dropping off at the local Public School, which would be Coyle Schools' Campus. Coyle Public Schools is currently not a member of a Career Tech District and never has been. The district's registered voters voted down the proposal 30 plus years ago. Therefore, students who wish to attend Meridian Technology Center must pay tuition, which is currently roughly $8,000-$11,000 a year, plus providing their own transportation. If the Coyle Public Schools Board of Education chooses to put the question on a ballot for a vote of the people, the measure, if passed, would raise the tax millage in the school district. I have been in contact with Dr. Doug Major, Superintendent of Meridian Technology Center, today about gathering information on how much the taxes will increase with a voter approval, along with everything that the membership would provide. As soon as I have more information I will certainly pass it on and share it with our district communities and citizens. After forwarding this information on to the citizens of our School District, I will take comments and feedback to the Coyle Schools Board of Education and they will decide if the measure is put on a ballot for registered voters in the Coyle Public Schools District to vote on. Please keep in mind that holding an election costs the School District about $3,000, so the amount of interest will probably be key in the School Board’s decision. Please give me a few weeks to compile the information and I will pass it on. Please also keep in mind that the School Board and I know how sensitive this subject is to both those who support the issue and those that do not support the issue, because of the tax increase. We will do our best to distribute the facts and information and will make a decision that is in the best interest of the School District. Thank you. Josh Sumrall Superintendent Coyle Public Schools

The fire alarm sounded at Coyle Elementary this morning. The fire department and administration cleared the building and have narrowed the trouble to a faulty duct sensor.
