The Dragons were involved in a defensive battle against Harding Charter that came down to the very last possession. Though they fell just two points short in a 38-36 heartbreaker, their effort and toughness were on full display until the final buzzer.
Next Up: The Dragons look to bounce back at Home vs Harrah
When: Thursday, Feb 24 @7:30
We are incredibly proud of the heart shown by all our student-athletes tonight. Let's keep that home-court advantage strong! 🔴⚫️

The students got a full walkthrough of the legal process:
The Check-In: We met Katy, the Court Clerk, and learned how to navigate security by going through the metal detectors.
The Courtroom: Students got to see where they would go if they ever needed to contest a ticket.
Pro-Tips: We learned that while you can just pay a ticket before the court date, it is often recommended to show up in person to potentially have your payment reduced.
A huge thanks to SRO Salgado for joining us and guiding the students through the official procedures.




Today we celebrate a huge milestone for senior Chase Anderson! Chase has officially signed his letter of intent to join the Livestock Judging team at Eastern Oklahoma State College on a scholarship.
Livestock judging requires incredible discipline, sharp evaluation skills, and hours of dedication—and all that hard work has officially paid off. We are so proud of Chase’s commitment to our FFA program and can’t wait to see him excel at the collegiate level in Wilburton.
Congratulations, Chase! The Mountaineers are getting a great one. 🐉➡️🏔️

A big shout-out as well to Coach Steve Clary for his leadership and for getting our archers ready to compete at the state level.
Great job, Ethan! Keep hitting those marks!



Don’t forget—tonight is the night to support our incredible FFA students! We kick things off at 6:00 PM, but please take note of our layout change due to ongoing construction:
🍽️ Dinner: Will be held at the Farm & Home Building.

Science in the Sky! 🪂✈️
Our Aviation 1 class took the classroom outdoors yesterday to put their engineering skills to the test! Students spent the period exploring the principles of parachute design, focusing on how surface area and drag impact flight.
It wasn’t just about making things float—it was about the Engineering Design Process:
Brainstorming the best canopy shapes.
Testing their prototypes in real-world conditions.
Refining their designs based on their observations.
Watching our future pilots and engineers problem-solve in real-time is what it’s all about! Great job, Aviation crew!
