Alexander Elementary is proud to recognize our 1st Semester Honor Roll students. Congratulations on your hard work and dedication!
In consideration of early morning extreme temperatures and unsafe road conditions, Commerce Schools will be transitioning to distance learning tomorrow, January 17th, 2024.
The safety of our students and staff is our top priority, and we believe this decision will help ensure everyone's well-being. All 6-12 grade students are expected to participate in online classes and visit google classroom for each course to get their daily lessons. Elementary students were given paper packets earlier and need to complete Day 1 of that packet tomorrow. Teachers will provide instructions and support through virtual platforms and can be emailed if needed.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation during these challenging weather conditions. Stay warm, stay safe, and let's make the most out of our virtual learning day.
We will see everyone back in school on Thursday, January 18th.

SNOW PACKET
Hello Parents/Guardians,
This week snow packets will be coming home in case school is canceled for
weather and the announcement says that it will be a virtual day.
The packet includes work for five days. Each day has a set of
instructions and papers to complete. If school is canceled and it
is a virtual day, your child’s teacher will communicate through
Remind, Dojo, or text to remind you what work needs to be
completed. Students should complete the work for that day. The
work must be completed and returned to school or the student
will be given an unexcused absence. I recommend this folder be
kept in a safe place (top of refrigerator, sock drawer). By
creating this packet, students will complete work at home and
we will not have to make up the day. If school is closed and they
announce it as a true snow day, no work will need to be done
that day.
We are VERY EXCITED to announce a new service available to all Commerce Public Schools students. Our students now have access to a great new service made available by the Oklahoma State Department of Education. Varsity Tutors offers 24/7 On Demand Tutoring and all of our students now have access to this great resource in their clever portal on their chromebooks. For more information please follow the links below -

Please encourage your students to use this great new resource available to them. We are very excited to see the increased learning Varsity Tutors offers.
