It is with heavy hearts that Coyle Public Schools updates and informs you that the 9th grade student that was in ICU last week, Ryan Keeler, has passed away. Also, this past weekend, the Coyle Schools community lost three recent graduates, Barkley Simpson, Fidel Simpson and Dhariawn Simpson, in a car accident. Our thoughts and prayers are with both families and friends during this time of loss. An account has been set up at Coyle Schools to take donations for both families to help pay for medical and funeral costs. Donations can be made at the Superintendent’s Office at Coyle Schools in person at 700 S. Cottingham Avenue or mailed to PO Box 287, Coyle, Ok. 73027. Checks can be made to Coyle Schools and sent to Coyle Schools Attention: Medical & Funeral Expenses. Please designate which family you would like the donation to go to, if you wish, by writing Keeler Family or Simpson Family. If no designation is indicated the donation will be split between families. The funeral service for Ryan Keeler will be on Thursday, November 7th at 1:00 p.m., and will be held in the Coyle Schools Gymnasium at 201 E. Bond. Coyle Schools will close at 12:15 p.m. on November 7th, so teachers, staff and students may attend the service, if desired. Buses will run at 12:15 p.m., after lunch is served to all students. Please make plans to either pick up students from school by 12:15 p.m. or have someone at home, if students ride a bus. If students attend the funeral, parents are strongly encouraged to attend with your student. Coyle Schools will not be responsible for students staying at school after 12:15 p.m. and will not transport students home after the service. Funeral service arrangements for the Simpson family have not yet been made. As soon as those arrangements are made we will pass them along. Josh Sumrall Superintendent Coyle Public Schools

Coyle Public Schools has suffered a tragedy in our school family. A student is in ICU after a tragic event that happened at home after school yesterday. Our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family at this time. Counselors and staff are available at the school today for other students and staff as they are needed.

A filming and production crew will be in Coyle the next few weeks filming a movie called “Stillwater”, starring Matt Damon. They will be shooting a few scenes on Main Street in Coyle and using the school bus barn and FFA show barn during the building and filming process. Starting October 31st, Cottingham Avenue between Main Street and Lee Street will be closed to traffic. We are trying to let parents know, so alternative routes to school can be planned. Using the streets to the west and east of Cottingham should be fine. Filming and clean up should be completed by November 15th. The attached flyer should help with more details and thank you in advance for your patience during this event.

I just received a message from a Welch High School football parent and have attached it to this post. I truly enjoy and take pride in receiving these types of reports. This is the exact character and pride that Coyle Public Schools strives for out of our students and organizations. I want to share this with our community and supporters and publicly thank our football coaches, players and all of our school personnel for their contributions to the high character shown Friday night. Great job Coyle Bluejackets! Josh Sumrall Superintendent Coyle Public Schools
