Today is “World Kindness Day” and we recently caught an act of kindness happening with Ms Hegmann’s
3rd grade class at Bennett Elementary.
These kind notes of appreciation are being delivered to the Veterans Administration in Idabel again this year. (A few examples are included here. See more in Facebook)
“Kindness can transform someone's dark moment with a blaze of light. You'll never know how much your caring matters. Make a difference for another today.” -Unknown
💥The BBHS Savage Quizbowl team is going to Area!!
They battled hard this past Saturday at the Regional tournament in Poteau. There were some nail-biting matches, including a sudden-death win over Sallisaw at the end of the tournament. With only one loss, they came out with a 3rd place finish, earning a spot in the
Area tournament that will take place in January.
Way to go, Savages!!!
Please help me congratulate the following students who were selected out of thousands of students across the state of Oklahoma from both large schools and small ones as the best of the best!
This is an extremely competitive process and a very prestigious honor. All of the students that were selected for the mixed choir are ranked with one of the top 25 scores in their voice part from the many talented singers across the whole state. If they were selected for treble choir, they ranked between the 26th highest score and 55th. Many colleges seek this list to start their recruiting process!

All of my students make me so proud. They look out for one another and while trying to pursue something that is very much an individual thing, they work as a team. I love watching them root for one another.
It is always a good day to be a Broken Bow Savage! ❤️
A message from Mrs. Thomas
The All State Honor Choir Auditions happen to be both one of my most loved and hated events of the season. I love it for the things it brings out in my students. It brings growth, dedication, and great effort. I hate it for what it can sometimes steal from a student when things don’t go their way. It can steal confidence and bring self doubt. In the eloquent words of Kelby Fletcher, “No one’s talent is defined by the degree to which they are able to impress a judge or a panel of judges in a single moment in time. “ I also try to always tell students who sing solos for me at various contests. It’s one single attempt, the outcome of which is determined by numerous variables, some of which are completely out of the the student’s control. I respect those who show courage enough to give their all to the process just as much as I respect those who bring home the medal or the title. If they made it to the final round and got to compete today, then they proved themselves to be some of the best of the best before they even walked into an audition room today. Congratulations to each and every singer who auditioned today.
“It’s a blip in time. Celebrate if you made it. Learn and grow from it if you didn’t. And carry on in pursuing this thing that you love because whether or not your name will appear on a particular roster in January, the gift your Father has given to you is no less yours today than it was a month ago.” ❤️
