Hello from Oklahoma, the "Sooner State"!
Deer Creek Elementary School is located in a rural area in Edmond, a suburb of Oklahoma City. We have about 560 students in our K-5th grade school. We have six 1st grade classes. There are 21 students in our class; 12 boys, 9 girls and Mrs. Weeks, our student teacher. We like to write in our journals, read AD books, and take AR tests on the computer. Our favorite place at school is the outdoor classroom. We have a butterfly, vegetable, flower, and rose garden. We also have a pond, gazebo, and amphitheater. We love the postcards! Have a great year!
From Cole: "I love Oklahoma."
