BAPS will continue to disclose student directory information for the purposes of printing student names in yearbooks, honor rolls, athletic programs and publications.

As the parent or guardian, you have the right to refuse to permit your student‘s information to be released. If you DO NOT object to your student being included in such items as noted above, you are not required to take any action. However, if you do not want Broken Arrow Public Schools to release directory information about your student, please notify the Principal of your child’s school in writing.
