December 4, 2018 was a big day for Governor Mary Fallin, State Superintendent of Public Instruction Joy Hoffmeister, Santa Clause and OKC Thunder Mascot, Rumble. Each of these individuals had their pictures taken with Shidler’s AWESOME 3rd Graders. Shidler’s 3rd Grade Class was chosen as one of only twenty-three elementary classes from across the state to spend the day at the Capitol and to decorate a Christmas Tree for display at the State Capitol Rotunda. We are very proud of the our students for showing AMAZING TIGER PRIDE and OUTSTANDING CHARACTER. Congratulations future Shidler Senior Class of 2028!!!

SCHOLARSHIP ANNOUNCEMENT!!!
Shidler Alum, Dr. Delores Van Camp Etter and her husband Jerry, have announced a $1,000 incentive scholarship for every future graduate of Shidler High School who enrolls and is accepted into any form of educational training beyond high school. The scholarship will pay for either college or vocational training. Dr. Etter recently told students at Shidler High School that continuing education and training beyond high school can help them secure good paying jobs and enjoy satisfying careers. “Education,” she said, “is your ticket”. She also told students that, “post-secondary education is possible for anyone willing to commit themselves to it”. Dr. Etter went on to tell students that she believes so strongly in the power of continuing education, that she and Jerry were willing to invest the first $1,000 into each of their educational futures. The scholarship will begin with the 2019 Senior Class and continue for each graduate of Shidler for years to come. As a school district, Shidler is tremendously thankful to Delores and Jerry for their immense generosity shown by this scholarship and also for the many other times and ways they have supported Shidler Schools and Shidler Students. We are extremely proud of Dr. Etter’s distinguished lifetime accomplishments and are humbled that someone with her experiences and accomplishments would continue to return time and money to Shidler Schools, to a place where her education began.

Our NEW Softball/Baseball Concession Stand
Thank you Shidler School District Patrons for supporting the bond to build a new combination softball/baseball concession stand with restrooms. The insulation, metal and doors for the building are complete and windows have been ordered. The drywall and heat and air system have been installed. Bringing electric service to the building, finishing out the ceiling and painting are about all we lack to have a fully functioning concession stand with restrooms. We will continue to add pictures and updates to our website as the construction progresses to keep you informed. Thank you again for your support of Shidler Schools.
