Vision

Our vision is to be a nationally recognized model for life-long learning with a focus on highly engaging academic rigor, continuous professional development, and community involvement.

Instructional Focus Statement

A community wide effort to have all Skelly students show growth in reading and content comprehension with the ability to demonstrate knowledge through written and oral expression, through the implementation of a common set of engaging BEST PRACTICES in reading and writing in all classes as measured by DIBELS, SRI, OCCT, WIDA, teacher-made assessments and school-wide writing assessments.

Important Information for Skelly Parents & Guardians                                             
On December 6th, 2010, the Tulsa Public Schools Board of Education passed a new regulation requiring adults to show valid picture ID when picking a  student up during school hours. 
Click here to see a copy of the regulation.
Please be patient and allow additional time when you are picking up your student early as we implement
the new regulation. The Skelly staff knows that your time is valuable, and we will work diligently to make the new policy as efficient as possible. 
If at all possible, please refrain from picking up students early
unless it’s a family emergency.  Every minute of class-time is important. The missed minutes add up quickly.
