Tulsa Voices
"I am a product of Tulsa Public Schools, and I had so many wonderful educators who showed me what it means to be an influential adult in a child’s life. I wanted to be the teacher that could help students by making learning fun and exciting."
Kaitlin Ferguson, Skelly Elementary
1st Grade Teacher
"I have the honor of having the greatest profession in the world. When a student starts to cultivate excitement for learning, that is my favorite part of my job. When I see they are proud of what they have accomplished, it lights me up."
Kyler Phillips, Edison Preparatory
Math Teacher
"One of my favorite things about teaching is that the joy young children have for learning is contagious. I love to see the growth that they make in academics, social skills, and independence throughout the year."
Mary Duncan, Eisenhower International
Pre-K Teacher
"We will raise the Muscogee Creek Nation flag above this building to recognize our indigenous brothers and sisters, memorialize those who came before us, and celebrate the Nation upon whose lands we stand."
Superintendent Deborah A. Gist
Muscogee Nation Tribal Flag Acknowledgment Ceremony, November 2021
"To the teachers of Tulsa Public Schools, I want you to do one thing. I want you to add magician to your resume because we make magic happen."
