Message from Cheryl Bell, Oklahoma HSTW Coordinator:

Today's students live in an era driven by math, science, technology, and information.  Consequently, students need essential skills to prosper in the new world economy.  High Schools That Work (HSTW) provides that framework through 10  Key Educational Practices for accelerating learning and setting higher standards.

Oklahoma is a member of the Southern Regional Education Board's (SREB) network of 32 states in the HSTW program.   Administrators, school leaders, and teachers work as partners with students, parents, and the community to improve the way they prepare students for work and postsecondary education.

Oklahoma students deserve learning that is exciting, active, creative, and challenging to realize their full value and potential when encouraged to put forth the effort to succeed.
 
Please contact Cheryl Bell, State HSTW Coordinator, if you have additional questions.
