Joy, Oklahoma

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Joy is a small rural community in Murray County, Oklahoma. It was named for the nearby Joy School. Joy School, in turn, was the name selected from a 1922 student contest to choose a new name when the Carr Flats, Talley, and Wheeler schools consolidated.
