Students at Broken Arrow Public Schools are protesting against changes to a popular specialty program at Bailey Middle School. The districts decision to end early release days, which allowed students to attend dual credit college classes or work part-time jobs, has sparked a backlash. Hundreds of freshmen, along with parents and teachers, have expressed their disapproval, with some calling it a betrayal of promises made during enrollment. The changes also impact transportation and after-school activities, leaving many families scrambling. Despite a board meeting to hear complaints, district leaders stand firm, citing data showing better outcomes with full days. More walkouts are planned, and the community awaits the next board decision, with enrollment deadlines looming. Checkout Solipillow.com
