The staff is very supportive, which creates a positive learning environment for children. Students also can participate in Extended School Services after school. Test scores show that students are making great progress and Okolona has been in Rewards on the Kentucky accountability test during the past two cycles. Our focus is on teaching students to become better readers and writers. Okolona's building is open and spacious, offering a warm and friendly environment for students and families.
All classrooms have access to Internet learning.
Extended School Services are offered for students who need extra time for learning. Through a strong Cultural Arts Program, students become performers as well as learners. Families are encouraged to be a part of the school through an active PTA, the School-Based Decision Making Council, and the Family Resource Center. Slaughter gives students a world view with its Global Learning Center. By learning diversity through other cultures, students at Slaughter get an early lesson in tolerance.
