Oklahoma public schools have gone downhill so rapidly that past experience is unfortunately no guide to the present.

  Jenks High School class of 2016, MIT class of 2020. Honestly, Jenks was an incredible high school to go to since it was public; having a $20M Math and Science center let me go to places like MIT.

    That’s good to hear. I went to OSSM in the 90s and the legislature tried to defund it.

      It sure looks like it has a crazy nice math and science center: http://www.newson6.com/story/12523105/jenks-public-schools-breaks-ground-on-new-math-and-science-center http://www.newson6.com/story/12523105/jenks-public-schools-b... http://su2016.thedude.oucreate.com/uncategorized/jenks-high-school-math-and-science-center/ http://su2016.thedude.oucreate.com/uncategorized/jenks-high-...

      My school not having something like that led to me being unable to apply to MIT.

    My high school having a brand new computer lab completely rebuilt every year, an agricultural sciences program that put most corn country colleges to shame, and a $xx million a year budget surplus let me drop out at 16.
