Every Wednesday, you’ll find us in wigs, hats, and all kinds of crazy head coverings — and we’re not stopping anytime soon. We wear them because the fight isn’t over. We wear them because we stand with those we work with and love so deeply — our administrators, Mrs. Heather Ellis and Mr. Paul Gruenberg.
The fight against cancer can be long and sometimes isolating, but no one in the Longhorn family fights alone.
We fight together. We pray together. We support one another. And we will continue to show up — every single Wednesday — until the victory is won.

Select a teacher (or more) and choose the size of tattoo you want them to wear.

IPS will announce no later than 6:00 tomorrow evening if the campuses will be closed Tuesday. Stay safe and warm!
When inclement weather is forecasted...we receive a lot of questions regarding attendance. Please see below for some of the most asked questions.
What factors determine if school will be closed or transitioned to virtual learning due to weather?
Road and sidewalk safety
Temperature and wind chill
Bus accessibility
Potential power outages
When will a decision be made about closures or transitioning to virtual learning?
IPS will inform families about a school closure as soon as it becomes clear it is not possible to safely open all campuses. If the decision can be made the night before, it will be communicated to families. If that is not possible, school closures will be announced no later than 6:00am in the morning.
What about school transportation?
If school is closed or transitions to virtual learning for the day, busses will not run. However, if school is in session, tardies will be excused for bus riders on inclement weather days if a school bus is running late.
Once the school day has started, IPS will not close early. School bus routes will operate their normal routes.
How will information be provided to families?
Inola Public Schools will share official inclement weather information through:
The IPS official website
IPS official social media pages
Television Channels 2, 6, 8, and 23
Please be cautious of school closing notifications that are AI-generated or shared from unofficial sources. Families should rely only on information posted by Inola Public Schools through official channels.
Parents and guardians should always use their own judgment when deciding whether it is safe to send their student to school during inclement weather. Families are encouraged to have a contingency plan in place for unexpected school closures.
Student Safety Reminder:
All of Inola Public Schools follow established safety procedures for early checkouts. Students will only be released to a parent or guardian listed in the student’s Sylogist contact information.
