After many months of intense work, we are pleased to announce that we have completed and submitted the Tulsa Classical Academy charter application to the high-quality Charter Authorization Office of Rose State College. While members of our board have pursued graduate degrees and written many intense and impressive academic papers, none of us has written a document as substantial as a charter application. It is a testament to our board that we were able to complete it in three months. Of course, we could not have done it without the help and support of OPSRC, BCSI, the William S. & Ann Atherton Foundation and many of the schools and organizations who have started classical charter schools throughout the country.
