Street School greatly appreciates the time, effort, and resources donated on United Way’s Day of Caring. Over 100 employees from Williams joined Street School students on September 9th for a very special day.  Volunteers and Street School students worked together landscaping, but also playing pool, ping-pong, volleyball, flying kites, and they even made clay pottery in art class. It was a great day of interaction and building relationships. Street School students, the board of directors, and staff can not thank Williams and its employees enough for their generosity.  Thank you!

Students from the Street School Leadership Class took a field trip to Rogers State University in Claremore, Oklahoma.  Associate Professor, Diana Clayton took time to show students dorm life, the library, campus bookstore and actually sit in on a college class.  Students were impressed with the facilities and that college can be a reality after high school.  Dr. Clayton was very helpful!
