Congratulations to the Class of 2020!! Coyle Public Schools will hold their Commencement Ceremonies on Tuesday, June 2 at 7:00 PM in the New Gymnasium. Individual Senior Pictures are on the school website (coyle.k12.ok.us).
Student Checkout May 2020
Students in grades 8-12 will check out of school when they turn in their laptops. Students need to bring all school supplies--textbooks, calculators, athletic equipment--to turn in also at this time. If you did not take your laptop home, you will still need to check out of school for the year. Those students who did not have a laptop at home may come any day Monday, May 11 to Thursday, May 14 between 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM. If you have any questions, contact Mr. Weathers or Mrs. Larman.
Today is the last day of school for the 2019-2020 school year! It has been a crazy last couple of months and we want to thank the students, parents, teachers and staff for making the distance learning experience the best that we could! The principals have contacted students and parents about how to complete student checkouts. If you have not heard about a checkout time please contact them by email. Have a great summer!
Mrs. Ritter will be at the Coyle Elementary School from 10:00am-3:00pm today (May 8th) and all next week, if anyone needs to drop off homework packets or to pick up any student belongings. If you cannot make it during those times please email Mrs. Ritter at jritter@coyle.k12.ok.us to set up a different time to meet.
Thank you Coyle Teachers and Staff for making the best out of this distance learning experience! This is the last week of distance learning and only fitting that it is also Teacher Appreciation Week!
8th-12th Grade COMPUTER CHECK IN
Students need to check their emails, so they will know when they need to come to the school to check in their laptops the week of May 11-May 14. We have to abide by CDC guidelines, so please make sure to come at the time scheduled or contact school officials as indicated in the email.
Coyle Public Schools has had several inquiries about Summer Driver’s Education. As you can see in the attached letter from the Oklahoma State Department of Education, they have not made a determination on how or if Summer Driver’s Education will take place. We will keep you updated as more information is given.
Coyle Public Schools has tentatively rescheduled the Junior/Senior Prom for May 30th and the Senior Class of 2020 Graduation/Commencement Ceremony for June 2nd!
Both events will be based on CDC and social distancing guidelines and are subject to be changed to a later date. Updates and confirmations will be shared as the dates get closer.
Junior/Senior Prom will be held on Saturday, May 30th at the Coyle Gymnasium from 8:00pm-11:00pm.
Senior Class of 2020 Graduation/Commencement Ceremony will be held on Tuesday, June 2nd at the Coyle Gymnasium at 7:00pm.
16 Everyday Activities That Count As Learning!
Friday Night Lights
The lights at the Coyle Bluejacket Football and Baseball Fields were turned on at 8:20 PM (military time 2020) on April 17, 2020 for The Class of 2020 for 20 minutes as part of the "Be the Light" campaign during this Coronavirus pandemic. The lights are to honor the Class of 2020 and their families during this trying time.
Importance of the US Census--If you have not done yours already, there is a major reason to do it. The welfare of our school district. From federal monies to state monies, we are dependent on these funds. Every single person in our school district counts when they tally our population. Please take the time today to complete the US Census for our students. Now more than ever, we need to make sure we are all counted. We are engaged in a new learning distance program that will change the way education looks in the future. We need the funds to make sure we continue to be competitive with the schools around us. It will take at the most 10-15 minutes of your time. Thank you on behalf of the students in our district for taking the time to complete your US Census.
The Coyle High School FCA would like to remind everyone that the “Blessings Box” is still available and is full of food, if anyone needs any items. The box is located in front of the Coyle Elementary building. People are also welcome to donate to the box, if you see it needing some items.
Parents please follow these instructions when picking up packets on Monday.
Elementary student packets (pre-K - 7th grade). Drive down the street (E. Crawford St.) going east between HS Building and Elem. Building. The pick up location will be at the cafeteria building Monday from 11 a.m. to noon each week. Please stay in your vehicles and and a Coyle School representative will come to your vehicle window.
HS students packets can be picked up at the HS front doors.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Mrs. Ritter and Mr. Weathers
Please see the attached Distance Learning Plan for Coyle Public Schools.
Coyle School has a plan in place regarding continuing the important task of providing education to students for the remainder of the 2019-2020 school year. Each teacher will contact their students in their class and outline their plan for online learning. If for some reason you do not hear from the teacher by Friday, April 3, please let us know by contacting me at 405-740-4922 or sweathers@coyle.k12.ok.us.
Our teachers are working hard through innovative ways to present the classroom material. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work out challenges that may arise. If you DO NOT have access to internet service, assignments for students can be picked up at the school each week on Mondays (11:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon). This will also be the time to drop off any completed work. School personnel will meet you at the front door of the High School during the time listed above.
If you have any questions, you may call or email your teacher. The teachers’ emails are on the Coyle School website—coyle.k12.ok.us--under Staff in the Menu. Parents and students are welcome to call Mr. Weathers if you have any questions.
Coyle School is still planning on the usual graduation date of May 12, 2020. If the State Department extends the request for no school activities and we cannot have an indoor graduation, we do have another plan for graduation of the 2020 Coyle School Seniors. All sport events and extracurricular activities are cancelled through the end of the school year.
Please continue staying safe and healthy. We look forward to seeing everyone again and returning to our regular school environment in the future. Take care, and we appreciate you and your students having Bluejacket Pride.

For parents of students in grades 8-12, I emailed each student’s school email informing them of the upcoming distance learning to start next Monday. If your child has not accessed his/her email, please have them do so as other teachers are also trying to contact them. #bluejacketpride
PreK Enrollment is now available at https://www.coyle.k12.ok.us/o/cps/browse/110477
Please see the following flyer about an updated Pre-K enrollment date.
The Coyle Public Schools Administration met this morning to discuss our district’s plan for distance learning from April 6th through May 8th. Principals will be contacting teachers starting today. Teachers will then be contacting parents and students next week with the individual plan for their class. Please be patient as there are several questions still to be answered. Also, please understand that distance learning does not necessarily mean using technology. Each teacher will adjust per student resource availability. This distance learning model is uncharted waters for everyone right now. Teachers will not be stressing pass or fail grades during this time. This plan is strictly to continue the opportunity to learn through the next five weeks.
As of right now, we plan to still have a regular graduation ceremony for seniors on the originally scheduled date of May 12th, unless we are forced to postpone to a later date. We are also looking at possible later dates for prom.
Again, please be patient as our teachers contact you with their class plan. This distance learning plan will not start until April 6th. There will be no instruction until April 6th.

Coyle Public Schools and our partnership with Keystone Food Service will be continuing to provide meals during the school closure throughout May 8th. There will be a change, however, in the days we will be distributing the meals starting Monday, March 30th.
We would like to get some hot meals to the students. In order to do this, we feel a twice a week pick up would make this possible. Meals will be available for pickup on Monday’s and Wednesday’s at the same locations and times as they are currently.
The three pickup locations are:
- Coyle - The Coyle Schools Cafeteria
- Langston - The bus stop at the park pavilion near the softball field and Fire Station.
- Meridian- The Meridian Fire Department
The times for pickup will be Monday’s and Wednesday’s, March 30th-May 8th, 11:00am-12:00pm.
Students must be present in order to receive the meals.
There will be a hot lunch on Monday, cold lunch for Tuesday and breakfast for Tuesday and Wednesday.
Wednesday pick up would include hot lunch, cold lunch for Thursday and Friday and breakfast for Thursday, Friday and Monday.
We hope that this will reduce person to person contact and keep the students and our employees safe in this unprecedented time.
The menus are attached.
