Tulsa School of Arts and Sciences will be opening a new middle school expansion in the fall of 2016.
TSAS will open a middle school for the 2016-2017 school year in which 75 seventh-grade students will be admitted via random lottery with the option to matriculate through TSAS to high school graduation and onto college. Those 75 students will move on to populate the first eighth-grade class in TSAS history as 75 new seventh graders will be admitted for 2017-2018. The lottery, as it has always been
at TSAS, is open to all families living within the boundaries of the Tulsa Public Schools district and is completely random; not selective on the grounds of grades, behavior, or special needs status. In addition to being admitted to TSAS Middle School, any siblings of students admitted to TSAS Middle School will have the option of entering TSAS High School without having to be selected via the lottery and vice versa. Tulsa School of Arts and Sciences (TSAS) is a perennially high-performing public charter high school serving 9-12 grade students living in the district of Tulsa Public Schools since 2001. TSAS uses a teacher-led, highly relationship-based educational approach serving students with a college-preparatory, education that places emphasis on the individual student. For the past 5 years, TSAS has been planning an expansion into the middle grades in order to deliver this kind of education to a wider breadth of Tulsa’s students. All TSAS grades will meet permanently at Roosevelt School at 1202 West Easton Street in historic Owen Park next door to the Tulsa Children’s Museum. This gorgeous, three-story, 1926 building will house TSAS Middle School on the top floor with high school students on the bottom two floors. This property features dozens of sprawling classrooms, multiple gymnasia, spacious common spaces, a media/research center, state-of-the-art science labs, fine arts facilities, a swimming pool, and acres of green space.
