You guys were great!! “We compete in the Regional tournament at Poteau tomorrow,” says Coach Clowers. Way to go, Savages! Good luck!

"When our perils are past, shall our gratitude sleep?" "On this Veterans Day, let us remember the service of our veterans, and let us renew our national promise to fulfill our sacred obligations to our veterans and their families who have sacrificed so much so that we can live free." -George Canning (Pictures from tonight’s BBPS Veterans Day program at Jenkins Auditorium.)

At RJMS FCCLA we have been studying Communication and Conflict Resolution. Students ended the unit with a fun communication activity. Students had to sit with their back to each other. Both were given the same set of blocks. The communicating student had to explain to the listening student how to build the exact same structure they were building. The listener could not ask any questions. From this activity, we learned that we don't do a very good job of explaining what we are saying to others. A typical person can speak 125 words-per-minute, yet we can process up to three times faster, reaching as much as 500 words-per-minute. We also realized how important body language is while communicating. The moral of the story: Don't just expect others to know what you are talking about.

What a day for BBHS FCCLA! #FirstPlace We started the morning off with a trip to KJ’Z Coffee Shop for some delicious drinks and tasty treats. Afterwards we hit the road and traveled to Atoka for District STAR Events. We had two teams and two individuals compete today. Both of our teams placed ✨ FIRST✨ in their events and our two individuals had some wonderful learning experiences and are excited for future opportunities! We are so proud of these kiddos and all of their hard work! It is such a privilege to see our students take on leadership roles and reap the benefits of their efforts. #Regionals here we come! 🥇

Please come celebrate with the students of Broken Bow Public Schools as we honor the service of our Veterans. The BBHS Annual Veteran's Day Program will be held on... ✍🏻Thursday, November 9th at 7:00 PM at the Memorial Stadium. In case of inclement weather the program will move to Jenkins Auditorium at the high school. 📳Please stay tuned to our school's social media page for weather updates.

Mr. McGee’s November “Class Brag”🙌🏼 Mr. Cox’s Biology class had an assignment where students designed posters about global issues affecting our environment. Students were able to pick their own topics which ranged from forest fires to pollution and everything in between. Mr. Cox had teachers vote on the best poster. Awesome job Mr. Cox and our biology students!
