We had a great time at our Parks Playoff Pop-Up @ Bicentennial Park, and we were so happy to see sweet friends from @JohnRexSchool! These kids know how to #ThunderUp!

Take your kids to vote! I asked the kids why we should vote for @davidfholt and they said because he helped with our @JohnRexSchool garden! He has done that and so much more for our city. I was only #6 at 7:30 am this morning. Go vote OKC!

What an amazing weekend! Our Rockets proudly joined the Fiestas de las Américas Parade to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month. Big thanks to our families, students, and community for coming together to honor culture, music, and tradition! ❤️

[John Rex Charter School @JohnRexSchool]

At John Rex, we are proud to honor the rich heritage and contributions of our Hispanic students, families, and staff.

Our story cannot be told without theirs. Their culture, perspectives, and excellence help shape the vibrant culture that makes John Rex unique.

We’re counting down the days until we see our John Rex families across all THREE of our downtown campuses!

A big thank you to @JohnRexSchool for bringing out their teachers on a charter bus to shop at Mardel! We had such an amazing time helping these educators prep for the upcoming school year.

At John Rex, summer is part soaking up the sun and part transforming our space! We're building for the future! The renovation of the McAlpine Center for John Rex Intermediate School is well underway and we can't wait to share it with you in August!

This is what virtual school looks like for our kids. Sitting on the House floor (thanks @RepPfeiffer!) listening to HB1276, which bans cell phones in school with local opt-out. @JohnRexSchool

[John Rex Charter School @JohnRexSchool]
