Muskogee Public Schools families,
We want to make all families at Cherokee Elementary, Creek Elementary, Tony Goetz Elementary, the 6th & 7th Grade Academy, and the 8th & 9th Grade Academy aware that the previous after-school program funding ended on June 30, 2024, and this program is no longer available.
However, we are pleased to announce that Pershing Elementary has been awarded a grant to offer after-school programming for the 2024-2025 school year. This program will be exclusive to Pershing students.
We know this transition may be challenging, and we appreciate your understanding and patience as we work to provide the best possible options for our students. We will notify Pershing students and their families with more details about the new program and enrollment soon.
Thank you for your continued support of MPS!
