Whitson and Rowland Named to Academic All-State
Rusty Anderson

Congratulations, MHS senior Lillian Whitson and WHS senior Lily Rowland. Last weekend, they were inducted into the 40th Academic All-State Class during the Oklahoma Foundation for Excellence Banquet held at the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum.

They are now two of only 4,001 students to hold this title. Lillian invited MHS history teacher Julie Berryhill to accompany her, and Lily invited WHS Yearbook teacher Jana DeLong.

Congratulations to the Moore Public Schools Foundation as well. It is named a 2026 OFE Outstanding Program for its efforts to raise funds to bring the dream of Bridges of Moore to MPS students.
