We are expecting a fantastic year in our after-school programs!

The district was able to secure special funding to offer free after-school care to students in pre-kindergarten through second grade for one more year.

Specifically, pre-kindergarten and kindergarten students will be at Hillcrest, while first- and second-graders will be at Rose Witcher in play-based programs.

Third through sixth grades also have one more year with their free, grant-funded program at Roblyer Learning Center.

Dear El Reno High School Families:

I hope this letter finds you relaxed, refreshed and ready to begin a new school year.

I am excited, along with the dedicated and enthusiastic staff, to welcome back all of our students. I want to remind you all of our mission at El Reno Public Schools to “Ensure every student’s achievement and inspire excellence.” The first step in fulfilling this mission is to help every student feel welcomed, connected, and a part of our EHS family.

Senior year of high school can be a whirlwind of activity. The early months are spent wrapping up standardized testing and applying to college. Since many colleges and universities ask for mid-year transcripts for students to aid with class placement and/or make final admissions decisions, students also need to maintain their studies and grades throughout the fall and winter.

Welcome to the El Reno Learning Center at 1100 W. Pine.

I am honored to join the El Reno Learning Center family and take the reins as leader.

We are excited about our new school year and the great changes that have come with it as we continue to build relationships with our students, families and community. Our commitment continues as we strive to prepare our students for their future and all that awaits them upon graduation.

Dear Etta Dale Junior High Parents and Students,

Welcome to the 2023-24 school year! I would like to introduce myself.

My name is Kurt Myers and this is my fourth year as principal at Etta Dale Junior High and will be my 27th year in education. I have been a teacher, coach and administrator in school districts throughout Oklahoma and Texas.

I can’t put into words the excitement that I have for the continued opportunity to serve the stakeholders of El Reno Public Schools.

High school sports garner significant attention in communities that want to support their student-athletes.

But what about students who aren’t inclined to compete on the field or in the gym? There are many more non-athletes than athletes, and the following are some extracurricular activities that might appeal to students who aren’t interested in sports.

It’s so exciting to start another year as principal of Roblyer Learning Center.

The summer went so fast and it will be Aug. 17 before we know it and our students start another wonderful season of learning and growth.

We are going to hit the ground running so we get to grow our kids up in academics as well as socially and emotionally.

Fifth and sixth grades are important years as these children learn more responsibility and gain more independence before heading to Etta Dale.

Welcome Back to School El Reno

After swimming around under the sea – a/k/a El Reno pool, lake, pond, river, Hurricane Harbor and possibly a big blue ocean, we are ready to shore up and explore the big wide world of learning at the Linc (Lincoln Learning Center). Learning here at the Linc is better than anything they have out there, under the sea.

Here we got no troubles, life is in the bubbles, here at the Linc!
