OOLOGAH UPPER ELEMENTARY

Oologah-Talala Public Schools

Dear Parents and Guardians,

We are excited to announce that our district is now implementing a Title I Schoolwide Program. Both Lower and Upper Elementary schools are collaborating to restructure and expand the Title I program—allowing us to offer enriched learning experiences for all students, not just a select few.

Previously, we operated under a Title I Targeted Assistance Program, which limited the flexibility of who could receive services. With the Schoolwide model, we can now focus on the overall strengths and challenges within our schools, ensuring that every child has the opportunity to reach their full potential.

As part of this initiative, our administrators and teachers will:

• Collaborate to develop strategies that enhance student achievement,

• Increase family engagement in education,

• Attract and retain highly qualified teachers, and

• Use data-driven decisions to support all learners effectively.

Additionally, under the Title I Schoolwide Program, parents and guardians have the right to know the qualifications of their child’s teachers. We are proud to share that all our teachers are highly qualified and state-certified in Oklahoma. Our paraprofessionals also meet the required standards of qualification.

We are committed to partnering with families, staff, and the community to provide a high-quality education for all students. Thank you for your continued support.

Sincerely,
Oologah-Talala Public Schools
