The mission of El Reno Public Schools for the return of school in August of 2020 is to ensure all students learn at the highest levels possible while taking all steps necessary to reduce any risks to students’ health and safety.

We understand this can be accomplished in different forms depending on the need of the student and the overall wellness of the school and community.
