The fine arts department of Broken Arrow is excitedly presenting its annual districtwide art show, April 8-19, on the campus of NSU-Broken Arrow, located at 3100 East New Orleans Street. The multi-building galleries will be open Monday through Thursday from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., Friday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. The event will feature art from every single school site in the Broken Arrow school district.
“Our visual arts students showcase an undeniable talent from the very beginning of their academic careers,” said Adam J. Foreman, associate director of fine arts. “And to see this transition from elementary up through secondary students is nothing short of astounding.”
Situated across the entire campus of NSU-Broken Arrow, patrons will be able to see their students’ artwork alongside their school peers, as well as enjoy talent from all four corners of the district. Each school site will also hold an open “fan favorite” award where patrons can vote for their artist of choice.
In addition, 14 different student artists will be chosen for the prestigious Superintendent’s Award, where their works will be displayed and recognized for one year in the office of the superintendent in downtown Broken Arrow at the Education Service Center.
“It’s one of the biggest events of the year, and one that encompasses literally every age group and grade from across our nearly 20,000 students,” said Foreman. “No other event brings the district together like this one, and we are always proud to make it something special.”
Wayfinding signage and maps will direct patrons to their students’ school site displays on the NSU-Broken Arrow campus. The show will close on April 19.

Broken Arrow Public Schools is a student-focused, relationship-driven school district, and we understand the value in communicating with parents/guardians. To ensure prompt communications, we must review and annually update contact information for students. Returning Student Registration is now called the Annual Online Registration Update (AORU) through our Infinite Campus Enrollment Platform. The AORU process allows the enrollment team to quickly and efficiently update addresses, contact information and health consent for students. The completion of these online forms is mandatory in order to be re-enrolled for the next school year.
Please click on each of the questions to view answers.
The Annual Online Registration Update begins on Thursday, April 4, and needs to be complete by Monday, June 3.
Yes, once the AORU is accessed through the portal, parents/guardians will be able to designate a language option.
The student must reside within district boundaries. If you have moved outside of the Broken Arrow school district boundaries, after you have completed the Annual Online Registration Update process, you must complete an out-of-district transfer application. You will be notified of the transfer decision via email.
All addresses used for student enrollment must belong to the parent or legal guardian. (Please submit a marriage license if the Proof of Residency is in the name of a step-parent.)
Parents/guardians will access the Annual Online Registration Update through the Infinite Campus Parent Portal. If you have not yet activated your parent portal, please check your email as information regarding the activation key has been sent in previous email communication. If you are a student’s mother, father or legal guardian and have not received an email initiating Parent Portal setup, please Contact Us.
Access the Parent Portal login link at Parent Portal login link. (Note: If you have forgotten your password or it needs to be reset, please contact your child’s school site.) Please note that access to the AORU must be done on the Parent Portal account and NOT the student’s account. Visit this webpage to get instructions on how to set up a Parent Portal account.

Practice tests for the online Oklahoma School Testing Program assessments are now available online via a web browser. The OSTP assessments will be given starting in April.
Students in grades 3-8 and 11 should use these practice questions to become familiar with the online tools available as well as the formatting of the multiple-choice, constructive response and technology enhanced items. All available online tools are unlocked for the practice questions to allow for students who need accommodations (e.g. text-to-speech). For the actual test, only students with a valid Individualized Educational Plan (IEP), 504 Plan or English Language (EL) accommodation will receive the accommodated online tools.
Please note that the intent of the practice tests is not to predict a student’s performance level on the operational assessment, but to familiarize them with the online platform.
