Seniors have had a busy couple of weeks! On October 1, we went to the Oklahoma City National Memorial and learned more about the Oklahoma Standard and the most deadly incident of domestic terrorism our nation has experienced.
October 6, a small group of students interested in attending the University of Oklahoma got to tour the residence halls and explore campus. We even ran into Alex alumni Ryder Doty in the library!





The Longhorn Drumline is learning a lot at the OU band clinic this beautiful morning at Tiger Stadium in Ardmore!

Congrats to our Readers of the Week, Bowdie Fly, Lillian Anderson, Kaiden Garland, and Kinsley Hufferd. We are proud of you!📖🎖️

Congratulations to our Halloween Carnival King and Queen candidates!
This year's TSA Carnival Fundraiser will benefit the Barrett Rhyne Memorial Fund. BRMF was started by the family of Barrett Rhyne (son of AHS teacher Beth Anne Rhyne) after his passing to support families in the Alex community experiencing medical crises and to provide a scholarship for graduating AHS seniors who have overcome significant challenges. In the past three years, BRMF has given more than $7000 in scholarships to graduating seniors and $15,000 in direct monetary donations to families for food, gas, and expenses incurred during a hospital stay or medical fight.
We are so excited to partner with BRMF! If you would like to donate to a candidate, the elementary school has buckets for each student. Thank you for your continued support of Alex TSA!
