On April 1, our Howe FCCLA students volunteered at Infant and Child Services in Tulsa - sorting, organizing, and preparing items for families in need.

Under the guidance of their teacher, Mrs. Frances Crouch, students spent time giving back in a hands-on way, learning the value of service and the impact it has on others. From tiny clothes to essential supplies, every item they handled will help support a child and family in our community.

We are proud of these students for their hard work, compassion, and willingness to serve others. They represented Howe well!

Mrs. Kardokus’ Freshmen took Romeo and Juliet to the next level!

Students wrapped up their Shakespeare unit with incredible final projects—alternate endings, book reports, and creative presentations made with materials from home.

Each project was different, but one thing was the same… effort, creativity, and heart!

Way to go, 9th grade! #HowePride #ClassroomCreativity #StudentVoice
