1967 - 1982
15 Short Years - Gone, but Not forgotten
That's what makes the Sooner Spartans so Special!
We're one of a kind!
The following is the personal opinion of our guest columnist and does not necessarily represent the opinions of this website.
Sooner High School in Bartlesville, Oklahoma was built in response to overcrowding at Col-Hi High School. It opened in 1967 with 10th and 11th grades the first year, then grades 10 through 12 in 1968. The school team was the Spartans and the official colors were Kelly Green and Old Gold. The first graduating class where students had gone to Sooner their entire high school career was 1969. Sooner features a 1,019-seat auditorium, gymnasium and cafeteria.
Sooner unfortunately, didn't last long. Fifteen years after it was born, it closed with the last graduating class in 1982. Many attribute poor planning and heavy handedness by the school board for trying to force a bond issue in 1980 that was ultimately defeated. Citing declining enrollments and the 1980 failed bond issue, the school board voted for consolidation and Sooner was no more. One wonders how the declining enrollment could have surprised the school boad because as we all know, they do take Daily attendence and they knew the average attendance of every class for all 12 grades, 12 years in advance, leaving all but 3 years accounted for.
Sooner may be called by some the Mid-High, however in an even stranger turn of events, remodeling at Central would cause Madison to be Renamed to Central, Sooner, now the Mid-High would be Renamed Madison and entire generations of students will be forever confused as to where they went to school.
Forgive me school board, but Sooner will always be Sooner, no matter what they call it. Madison will always be Madison and Central will always be Central and the school board be [explitive deleted]! One plus one is always two, except for the Bartlesville school board, for them it's 3 7/8th.
