Muskogee High School was honored to host the Journey of Hope, a traveling program from the Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum. This powerful experience allowed students and staff to reflect on the events of April 19, 1995, and the lasting lessons of resilience, compassion, and hope. As the 30th anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing approaches, we are reminded of the strength that comes from coming together as a community. #BeTheLight #TheMuskogeeWay
