As the dangerous road conditions and extremely low temperatures continue, we are making the decision now that all EPS schools will have a SNOW DAY tomorrow, Thursday, February 20th. We understand the burden that multiple days of remote learning causes for students, families and staff members.Therefore, tomorrow will be a traditional snow day. There are no remote learning expectations for tomorrow and attendance will not be counted.
The lost instructional time for Thursday will be made up with the schedule updates that were sent to EPS parents and guardians on Monday.
Please continue to stay warm and safe this week!
Because of the dangerous road conditions and extremely low temperatures caused by the winter storm, we are making the decision that we will continue with remote learning tomorrow, Wednesday, February 19th, for all EPS schools.

Please stay safe and warm this week!

Each week at Orvis Risner, a handful of 5th graders volunteer their recess time to attend Kindergarten's PE class and play with them. Judging by the smiles on both groups' faces, it's safe to say everyone looks forward to this day. 🤍🏃 #ShineYourLight #Belonging #Collaboration
100 days of school, countless memories. ✨
Cross Timbers celebrated in a big way—Pre-K collected 100 boxes of cereal, lined them up like dominoes and watched them fall! Students also got to wear hats, while Mrs. Neely and Mrs. Lausen dressed up as 100 year olds. Best of all, the cereal that was used in their activity will be donated to the Edmond Hope Center. It was a perfect 100 day celebration! 💯🥣 #ShineYourLight
🧪 AP Chemistry students at Edmond North are diving deep into calorimetry! Using a simple calorimeter made from Styrofoam cups and a temperature probe, they’re collecting data and analyzing it with Graphical Analysis on iPads. AP Chemistry is shining bright! 👏 #ShineYourLight
Because of an increasing number of student and staff absences this week, we have made the difficult decision to close school for all Edmond Public Schools for tomorrow, Friday, January 31st. Extracurricular activities will continue as scheduled.
This decision was made in advance to give our families and staff members time to prepare. We will let you know as soon as possible how this instructional time will be made up.
We look forward to seeing your students back in class on Monday morning.

📦 After reading "The Do-Nothing Machine" by Sharon MacDonald, students at the Edmond Early Childhood Center got to work making their own "do-nothing machines" out of recycled materials! Despite the name, these creations could do anything their imaginations dreamed up--cameras, cookie machines, popcorn makers and so much more. It was a fun way to get creative and think outside the box! ⚙️✨ #ShineYourLight
