After holding a virtual ceremony for 2020 graduates last spring, Redlands Community College is celebrating the Class of 2021 with an in-person ceremony Friday, May 7 at Jenks Simmons Field House.

Nearly 180 students will graduate with degrees.. The Class of 2021 also includes 30 nursing graduates. Since last year’s ceremony was held virtually, graduates from the Class of 2020 were also invited to participate in the 2021 commencement ceremony.

To the Editor:

To the patrons of Riverside School, I want to apologize for my actions in the last several days, but I have been under a lot of stress in concern for our wonderful school.

This school has a great history, but the direction it is going is very sad. It has approximately 119 students. I know COVID can be a reason, but good leadership can be another.

Larry Quisenberry of El Reno pulled a 46-pound blue catfish from Lake El Reno. The catch was made April 27 about 2:30 p.m.

The fish measured 47 1/2 inches and Quisenberry said he used shad as the bait.

Despite cutting 17 shots off its score from the first time playing the Aqua Canyon Course at the Cimarron Nation Golf Club, El Reno High School’s girls golf team fell short of the mark needed to make state.

“I’m disappointed and the team is disappointed because we know that we could have done better than we did. But the team this year is young, and they are only going to continue getting better and I can see next year as El Reno’s year,” said head coach Sarah Brower.
