The 9th and 10th computer applications class has been working hard on the end-of-year recap video. A-Town TV takes great pride in being a student-led program. The kids have helped support the live-stream all year long and this video shows not only their hard work, but the hard work our teachers put in day in and day out. There were lots of photos submitted from our teachers and staff and the kids did an amazing job putting it all together. Hope you all enjoy!

Today is Administrative Professionals' Day, and we have four wonderful secretaries that take care of us and keep us in line every single day at Arnett Public Schools. We couldn't do our jobs without them. To show our gratitude, staff members cooked breakfast and provided some goodies for each secretary.
Thank you Jackie, Kelsi, Melisa, and Remick!! We appreciate you!!
The little kids PE class have been competing against one another in the jump rope ninja challenge all year.

Congrats Tiegan, and thank you Mrs. Wheeler for the cool idea!

This week's Farmer's and Merchant's Bank "Banking on a Wildcat" goes to Mr. Bill Burcham. Bill's peers had this to say about him: "Coach Burcham is the teacher and coach every school system needs. The way he encourages students and other colleagues with his positivity, quick wit, and one liners is something that is welcomed and looked forward to every day. Maya Angelou once said, "People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." Coach B is one of those leaders that makes ALL people feel better after being around him. We are lucky to have him at our school making a difference in our students' lives." Congratulations, Coach B.

It's incredible how one person's act of kindness can have such a profound impact on a community. Sean Cummings's dedication to honoring his late wife Cathy by erasing school lunch debt in Oklahoma is truly inspiring. Recently Mr. Cummings stopped by Arnett Schools to help with outstanding lunch bills for Arnett students! His gesture not only alleviates financial burdens for students and their families but also spreads a message of compassion and generosity. It's wonderful to see individuals like Mr. Cummings making a tangible difference in the lives of others. Thank you, Mr. Cummings!

His work colleagues had this to say about him: "Mr. Long is a dedicated teacher to his subject area and to his students. He makes it his mission to not only educate his classes about history and geography, but also about going out into the world and being good, productive citizens. Mr. Long establishes a relationship with his students that he can have the fun, bantering talks with them, but also that he can have the harder, life lesson conversations with them. Mr. Long is an asset to our school and education system that we are very blessed to have." Congratulations, Jack!
