Falcon Families,
Our new visitor management system is now in place! Visitors who will be staying on campus must check in at the front office, present a photo ID, and wear a visitor badge. They must also check out before leaving.
This applies to meetings, conferences, eating lunch with your child, or any other visit during the regular school day. If you are simply dropping something off at the front office and leaving, a visitor badge is not required.
These procedures are an important part of keeping our students and staff safe. Thank you for your cooperation and continued support! Safety Matters!

Due to Oklahoma Senate Bill 1481, which requires additional daily recess for elementary students, Friend School will need to add 15 minutes to the school day beginning with the 2026-2027 school year. We have two schedule options that will meet the new requirements, and we would love your input before making a final decision. Please take a moment to complete the short survey below and let us know which schedule you prefer. Thank you for your feedback and for partnering with us as we work to meet this new state requirement.
