It was a GREAT day in Oklahoma City on the senior trip with the Class of 2026! 🚀 The day started bright and early with a 5:00 AM departure from Wellington, but the energy never slowed down. Once in OKC, students kicked things off with breakfast at IHOP, then hit the track for some high-speed fun at Andretti’s. From there, it was lunch at The Parlor OKC, followed by some well-earned time at Okana Indoor Waterpark. The day wrapped up with games and fun at Chicken N Pickle and a final stop at Roxy’s for an ice cream social. A full day of laughs, memories, and time together that these seniors won’t forget. What a trip! 🎓🍦🎉
