STROTHER - Oklahoma School District

About School District: The Strother School District is named after O.D. Strother, a Buster Brown travelling shoe salesman who became an Oklahoma oilman. After viewing a geological map that convinced him there were oil reserves in the area that would become Seminole, Strother began purchasing individual allotments from members of the Seminole tribe. He purchased over 4,000 acres of land and founded the Blue Ribbon Oil and Development Company, drilling several wells that began producing oil shortly after his death in 1926 and eventually produced over 17 million barrels of oil. The land where Strother High School is located was donated by O.D. Strother. Today the Strother School district has 339 pre kindergarten through high school students enrolled. It is a great learning community with teachers, staff and administrators who really care about students; really work with parents and the community; and together we strive to see each and every student attain the maximum level of achievement in each and every subject and activity. It is a great Professional Learning Community with great students and a great community. We believe that every student has leadership within them, and daily we work together to provide opportunities for individual and collective student-leadership potential to come to the forefront. If you haven't already been introduced to the LEADER IN ME program, then get ready to become LIM oriented in the near future.
