Superintendent's Notes
Dear Chieftains: October 2023
It is hard to believe that we are 1/4 of the way through the 2024 school year! Time flies when you're super busy and having fun! The month of October is full of many events and activities. We have something for everyone here at Bluejacket Public School.
Please put on your calendars the upcoming parent/teacher conferences on Monday & Tuesday, October 9&10 from 3:30-6:30. We'll have grade cards available and teachers will be waiting to visit with you regarding your student's status. It's important for all parents/guardians for students young and older to stay in tune with their Chieftain.
We will not be in school on Wednesday, October 11-Sunday, October 15 for Fall Break. Enjoy this time with your family. Get rested and ready to continue this first semester!
Remember that we still offer free Covid-19 rapid nasal swab testing. If you have been exposed or feel like you have symptoms, contact me at the school and we'll schedule a test. If you are Covid-positive or not feeling well, we ask that you do not come to the school or not send students to class without going 24 hours with zero fever. There has been little guidance on any new regulations. As a leadership team, we want our students teachers and staff here at school if possible. However, we do want to keep everyone safe from illness. Be smart and use common sense when dealing with the spread of infections.
Take care and as always, it is a privilege being a part of this great community and school system! I'm here to serve so always feel free to reach out!
Sincerely,
Shellie Baker, BPS Superintendent

Accountability Update: Oklahoma School Report Card Dashboard
The Office of Accountability is reaching out to remind schools that if they have not already posted the link to the Oklahoma School Report Card: www.oklaschools.com on their school website that under the ESSA, beginning with information from the 2017-2018 school year, report cards must be posted annually on SEA and LEA websites. (ESEA section 1111(h) (1) (A), (B)(iii) and (h)(2)(A), (B)(iii)). At the core of the Oklahoma School Report Cards is the belief that all students can grow and all schools can improve. While no student report card tells the full story of a child, no school report card tells the full story of a school. Education is far more than a single score or letter grade, but it is important that families and communities can see both strengths and areas that need support and improvement.If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact the Office of Accountability at (405) 522-5169 or accountability@sde.ok.gov. You may also contact the Bluejacket School administration regarding the school report card information.Reminder: 24/7 Tobacco-Free Schools Act
