Sallisaw Middle School is a beautiful, state-of-the-art facility, with some of the best teachers that you will find in all of Oklahoma!  We want every student to feel welcome when they enter the building and be safe so that they may focus on learning every day. 

Sallisaw Middle School Teacher of the Year

Max Knoke, an 8th-grade U.S. History teacher and former OSSAA Regional Golf Coach of the Year, brings a unique and engaging energy to Sallisaw Middle School. Max views teaching much like a golf course—believing that while some students take more 'swings' than others, every single one is reachable. By prioritizing a relaxed, fun environment and building strong relationships during everyday moments, he instills leadership and resilience in his students, teaching them to navigate the 'course' of life
