Casady BLUE Week Benefitting Fields & Futures

Feb 25, 2021

Casady BLUE Week Benefitting Fields & Futures

As an independent college preparatory school that promotes academic excellence and reflects the diverse world around us, Casady School is one of Oklahoma City’s most respected educational institutions.

We are excited to announce the Casady School Student Council has chosen Fields & Futures as the beneficiary of their inaugural BLUE Week, a week devoted to raising awareness for local issues and giving back to the city we call home.

BLUE Week stands for “Building Love, Uniting Everyone”. And as their first-ever selected beneficiary, we’re thrilled to see the Casady community embrace and help activate the Fields & Futures mission of building brighter futures for their peers in Oklahoma City Public Schools.

All proceeds from Casady BLUE Week 2021 will help support the students at Southeast Middle School. The Southeast Middle School campus is home to our most recent Pathway to Greatness campus transformation project and sits adjacent to Southern Oaks Park where a new sports complex is currently under construction.

Thank you, Casady School, for your support

Keeping Girls in the Game: Supporting Female Student-Athletes Matters More Than Ever

Every spring, OKCPS sports fields and tracks buzz with the energy and promise of a new season. Yet behind this excitement lies a troubling trend: sports participation among female students drops by 8% as they transition to high school, while boys' participation jumps to 35%. Find out why keeping girls in the game when they're at their most vulnerable is one of our biggest priorities and what we're doing to put more girls on more teams.

Swinging Into Spring Sports

Spring sports are in full swing in Oklahoma City Public Schools, and it's the busiest sports season of the year. 4,176 OKCPS students played sports last spring, and that number is certain to be even higher this year. This spring, Fields & Futures programs will support coaches and athletes participating in track & field, golf, soccer, and cheer through OKCPS, the YMCA, and OKC PAL.

Students Find Hope, Confidence and Futures from Sports

The Samuel Roberts Noble Foundation has been a huge part of the Fields & Futures story over the years. Learn how this partnership has been instrumental in putting more kids on more teams and transforming the landscape of OKCPS athletics.
