MEMORANDUM
Date: May 20, 2025
To: Public
From: OSSAA
Subject: Public Service Announcement – One-Time Change of School Hardship Waiver
To be eligible for a one-time change of school hardship, students must submit a Student Transfer Application through the State Department of Education’s website between June 1st and July 15th.
If a student is returning to their home district, the school must provide documentation showing the student began the enrollment process on or before July 15th.
Details of the criteria can be found on the OSSAA Website under “One Time Change of School Hardship Criteria.” Students who miss the July 15th deadline will not be granted a hardship under the “one-time change of school” criteria.
A hardship waiver submitted after the deadline must demonstrate an unusual, unforeseen, or unavoidable circumstance that compelled the student to change schools.
Once the student has begun the enrollment process, the school is responsible for submitting the hardship waiver to the OSSAA.
🎉 We had a great kickoff to our Choctaw Summer School program thanks to the Heavener Public Library! Students enjoyed an engaging visit from Buckaroo Bart, who shared stories about Will Rogers — the legendary actor, comedian, and skilled roper. The students even got to learn a few rope tricks of their own! What a fun way to start the summer! 📚🤠
Congratulations to the graduating class of 2025 at Heavener Public Schools. May your dreams and wishes be filled with joy and happiness in a future that is bright. Keep moving forward and keep doing great things. And remember "once a Wolf, always a Wolf".

🎨 End-of-Year Art Fun! 🎨
Mrs. Tomlin, our amazing Heavener Elementary Art teacher, treated the third grade class to a special art project to wrap up the school year! Students sketched their own designs and brought them to life on canvas with paint. What a creative and colorful way to celebrate their hard work this year! 🖌️🖼️ #HeavenerElementary #ArtClassFun #CreativeKids #EndOfYearCelebration
Here’s to a great Senior class … the senior class of 2025 of Heavener Public Schools. It has been a pleasure and honor to have been a part of these amazing students and their academic and extracurricular journey. The pizza was delicious too.

Congratulations to the top 3 Jr. High students with the most Accelerated Reader points for the school year. Elizabeth Reyes- 640 points, Kenley Haynes- 348 points, Annie Eggar- 220 points.
Heavener High School had some unexpected guests today. Heavener High School Seniors had their annual senior prank day today and brought their littles with them to school. Being against the rules Mr. Ralls had to hand down the proper discipline to the seniors. Each senior and their guest was given all the candy they wanted. We loved this prank and loved having all of the future Wolves in the High School today. #WOLVESFOREVER
The FFA Float trip scheduled tomorrow has been cancelled.

Heavener Elementary Families –
Our students recently had the opportunity to share their thoughts on the OK FineArts Grant we received for the 2024–2025 school year. Now it's your turn!
We invite all Heavener Elementary families to provide feedback on how this grant made a difference in our school and how we can continue to grow our Fine Arts programs.
