Will Rogers Junior High

Mr. Borntreger and Mrs. McCaughan had their 7th grade math students play a friendly competition this week. Students displayed their Integer skills by racing to see who could multiply or divide the quickest to claim points for their teams. When candy is on the line, everyone is motivated! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

We had special guests from the Department of Homeland Security and Rogers County Sheriff's Department who spoke to our students about internet and phone safety. It's crucial for our young people to be aware of the potential risks and to learn how to protect themselves in the digital age. We're grateful for their time and expertise! And for Rosco's expertise, also! 🐶 #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Students in Mrs. Baughman's classes are working on a project that brings history to life! They are creating life-size portraits of the Founding Fathers and will present 15 fascinating facts and 8 significant symbols that highlight the importance of these historical figures in shaping our nation. 🏛️ This hands-on approach not only helps students develop their creativity and research skills, but also gives them a better understanding and appreciation for those who helped lay the foundation of our country! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Zebra Family, The safety of our students and staff is our top priority. Please be assured that CPS is closely monitoring the weather forecast. All sites have reviewed our safety protocols. We understand that parents/guardians may want to pick up their children through the proper channels. If you choose to do so, this will be an excused absence. However, we do not want to send children home without supervision; therefore, our buses will not run early. If the weather changes and we must delay the buses, we will notify you as soon as possible through the CPS Mobile App and the Stopfinder App.

WRJH Parent/Teacher conferences will be Thursday, Nov. 14, from 4pm-7:30pm. Follow the link to reserve your conference time with your student's teachers. We will not be meeting as PODS this year, so be sure to schedule with each individual teacher. https://www.myconferencetime.com/willrogersjh/ #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Mr. Wadsworth's classes are kicking off a new unit all about cultures 🌏. To start, students have formed groups and shared their own unique family holiday traditions 🎁🎄. Then, each student will select a culture from around the world to research and put together a trifold poster 📋. We can't wait to see the final products and celebrate the beauty of different cultures! Stay tuned for the next project! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Our staff and students had a GREAT week for Red Ribbon Week! We had lots of fun with dress-up days! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Mrs. Newbury's science class just wrapped up our unit on waves, and it's been a total eye-opener! 👁 Students learned how visible light creates the colors we see, but did you know there's a whole world of unseen waves out there? To get a better understanding, students took a closer look at the inner workings of the human eye, discovering how it detects different wavelengths and transforms them into the vibrant hues we see! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Mrs. Hughes' class just dived into the thrilling world of 'The Most Dangerous Game' with a short story reading. To test the students' knowledge and understanding, they played a board game based on the story's key elements. What a fun way to review! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE

Mrs. Newbury's high school physical science class is diving deep into the world of waves and colors! Today, we used finger lasers to explore the different wavelengths of light and how they interact to create a rainbow of colors. It's amazing to see science in action! #CPSZEBRAPRIDE
