History keeps repeating itself in Morris – and that’s a very good thing.
The Morris High School Academic Team has once again proven it belongs at the very top of Oklahoma’s academic elite, capturing the 2025-26 OSSAA State Academic Bowl Championship last Saturday and securing an incredible fourth consecutive state title.
Morris Public Schools proudly congratulated the team on its latest championship run, celebrating not only the trophy but the relentless work ethic, preparation and teamwork that have defined this historic streak.
