- Youth Art Month was held throughout the month of March. Youth Art Month focuses on the creation, exhibition, and promotion of the visual arts across the United States. Yukon High School has lots to celebrate this month in regard to some our students' achievements. Highlights include:
- 13 different students had work accepted into the annual Scholastic Art and Writing awards held in Tulsa in February.
- Senior Jadyn Miranda received a National Silver Medal for the Scholastic Art and Writing awards. Only 12 students from Oklahoma received a national medal out of several hundred entries.
- 13 different students had work accepted into the annual Young Talent in Oklahoma exhibition recently held at Oklahoma Christian University during the month of March.
- Seniors Kaitlyn Penick and Tien Tran both placed in the top 10 (statewide) for their senior portfolios for the annual Young Talent in Oklahoma exhibition. This is the 5th year in a row that YHS has had a student place in the top 10.
- Senior Brooklin Layman placed 3rd (nationally) in the 38th Annual Photographer's Forum Photo Contest. There were more than 2,000 entries.
- Senior Tien Tran was accepted into the Momentum exhibition held on March 9 and 10. Momentum is for up-and-coming artists under the age of 30 in Oklahoma.
- 5 students received scholarships to attend the Oklahoma Summer Arts Institute. Only 20 spots were available statewide and several hundred students attended tryouts. This marks the 5th straight year students from YHS have been selected as a participant or as an alternate to attend OSAI in June.
- The visual arts students this year have (thus far) collected $190,000 in scholarships and awards money.

3.C. Textbook disposal
Agenda Item Type:
Information Item
Rationale:
Surplus Textbooks include past adoptions that have been replaced with current adoptions or textbooks that have been replaced by chromebooks with on-line textbook licenses.
Over the past 5 years with the increase in OERs and a 1-1 Instructional Technology initiative, the opportunity to sell back old/unused textbooks has been eliminated. As a result, YPS has stored these un-used textbooks in rooms and closets throughout our buildings. These un-used textbook are taking up space and becoming a home for unwanted pests. In addition, this space is needed to house current supplies and resources being used in our classrooms. The site librarians have been working with the curriculum & instruction office to properly surplus and dispose of these items in preparation for the IT refresh, new textbooks and other educational resources being purchased through the support of bond money. |
