Schulter Public School

I would like to welcome everyone back to Schulter Public School for another year of learning and memory making. This year we will continue to offer an exceptional basic education with numerous supplementary activities to produce a sound educational experience for the students in our community.

Here at Schulter Public School, we have been able to assemble one of the strongest teaching staffs anywhere. Our teachers are first rate and as good as you will find anywhere. Our facilities are very good and the supplemental activities and athletic activities are extremely good for a school of our size.

Most students thrive in our small school environment. There are no numbers here, all of our teachers and staff know each of our students and this is where our small size becomes an exceptional benefit for many of our students. No one falls throught the proverbial crack.

Athletic activiites include girls fast-pitch and slow-pitch softball, organized basketball beginning in the 5^th grade, and archery. We also have a cheerleading program for both middle school and high school, academic teams on both levels and a sompetitive speech and drama program in the high school. Our elementary school conducts an Accelerated Reader Program that is second to none with a very large number of rewards to encourage reading. We also encourage our teachers to take regular field trips and have guest speakers in their classrooms to expand the traditional activities presented to our students. Some regular field trips include several annual trips to the Tulsa Performing Arts Center to experience plays and provide our students with exposure to the performing arts.

Competition is one of the cornerstones of our school. We believe that every student can excel at something and give our students the opportunity to demonstrate their strong points. Annually we conduct a school wide spelling bee, recitation contest, art contest, essay and poetry contest and science fair. We believe that when a student receives recognition for their successes that it builds self-esteem in that young person and gives them an incentive to excel in other areas of their life.

Schulter Public School has been providing a quality education to area young people for over one hundred years, and will continue to do so for many more. Our financial condition is strong and as long as we have the support of our community residents we will continue to send our students out into the world to build on the successes of thousands of alumni who have walked our halls and will forever consider themselves Schulter Bulldogs.

Sincerely,

                                                               Allen Callahan
