🎃📙🎨BOOK CHARACTER PUMPKIN DECORATING CONTEST!

Mrs. Tolison’s class is combining creativity and craftsmanship through pinch pot and beadwork projects, showcasing attention to detail and artistic growth! Students are exploring traditional techniques while expressing their own unique styles through clay and color. Each piece reflects patience, skill, and a growing appreciation for the artistic process. “It’s been so much fun to see where their brain takes them on these projects. I love seeing all of the different creative takes,” she said.

Hello everyone, Our names are Jimmy & Debbie Jeter. We both grew up in Broken Bow and are glad to be a part of this great community. We are alumni of the 1970 class. Debbie and I were married in 1971 and raised two beautiful Daughters here in Broken Bow. Traci the class of 1990, and Jennifer the class of 1994. Two of our grandchildren Lexy and Jacob Brumley, and soon our 4 great grandchildren will be “Little Savages”as well. Most of our families and friends are proud Savage fans, we would ask for your support for the upcoming bond projects to expand our awesome schools under the leadership of Ms.Ellisor. Our students are blessed and privileged to be a part of this environment. Our prayer is for the next generations of students to have a safe and healthy school system like we grew up with. Thank you all for your consideration, God Bless. Jimmy and Debbie Jeter BBHS Class of 1970

✅Broken Bow Public Schools encourages everyone living within the Broken Bow School District (I-74) to exercise their right to vote in the upcoming school bond election. The election will be held on Tuesday, October 14th, from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m. and proposes a $69.5 million dollar bond sale to fund the construction of a new elementary school campus and the renovation of Broken Bow's historic Memorial Stadium.

🏫The new elementary school will be constructed on newly acquired land adjacent to the high school and middle school, replacing Bennett and Dierks Elementary Schools. The new school is designed with the safety of our students as a top priority, and the consolidation of our school campus introduces a new level of security and efficiency within our school system.

🏈The proposal will also bring new life to our beloved Memorial Stadium. Improvements to spectator seating, food concessions, public restrooms and the playing surface are a few of the benefits of this proposed renovation. The stadium, which was dedicated in 1941, is one of the few fully-intact WPA stadiums remaining in our state. Our hope is to preserve and restore this historic arena for generations to come.

Some frequently asked questions we have received regarding this election are:

Q) Who can vote in the election?
A) According to Oklahoma Law, all registered voters whose primary residence is within the geographical boundaries of Broken Bow School District (I-74) may cast a vote in this election. Property ownership is not a requirement.

Q) Is this a sales tax increase?
A) No, this is a school bond proposal which is funded by property taxes.

Q) How much will my property taxes increase if this bond sale is approved?
A) All non-exempt parcels within the Broken Bow School District will have a one-time increase of 5.5% applied to their property taxes upon approval of this bond. This means that for every $100 of your current property tax bill, an additional $5.50 will be added. Example: If your current annual tax bill is $500, it will increase to $527.50.

Q) Will my property taxes increase 5.5% every year for the life of the bond?
A) No, the tax increase does not compound annually. It remains until the bond is paid off but the 5.5% is only applied once.

Early voting begins this week and polls open at 7 a.m. on Tuesday, October 14th. Please come out and support this bond to help us build for the future of our children!

🥎 Savage Softball secured a hard-fought 3-1 victory over Checotah on Thursday afternoon at Savage Softball Stadium to capture another OSSAA Regional Championship. Jaylen Cauthron drove in two runs with a triple in the 5th inning to give her team their first lead of the game. Mylee Williams singled in the next at-bat to score Cauthron and give Broken Bow the winning two-run margin. Khloe Williams, Mylee Williams and Raylee Martin each had two hits in the contest. Pitching ace Tyson Woolsey limited the Wildcats to just four hits in the seven-inning contest and the Savage defenders were error-free as Broken Bow captured the regional championship and a berth in next week's super-regional round.
