EnrollOKC.org Empowers Families with Transparent Public School Options
Fuel OKC, a nonprofit organization dedicated to increasing the number of quality schools in Oklahoma City, today announced the launch of EnrollOKC.org. This innovative website simplifies the public school enrollment process for families, providing a one-stop shop to research and apply to public schools in the OKC area, including charter and neighborhood schools.
“Navigating the complex landscape of public school options and application deadlines can be overwhelming for families,” said Brent Bushey, CEO of Fuel OKC. “EnrollOKC.org helps streamline this process by providing a user-friendly platform and a unified enrollment deadline – February 21, 2025.”
For the first time, families have access to comprehensive enrollment information on Oklahoma City public schools on one website. EnrollOKC.org includes application links and detailed school profiles with academic performance data, demographics and enrollment statistics.
“My son is in first grade and very strong academically, especially in math and reading. I wanted to find the best school that would challenge him to excel, but that information was hard to find,” said ShaRee Wrice, charter school parent. “It’s difficult to know when to apply to different schools or keep track of all the deadlines. EnrollOKC has made it so much easier to navigate these options and find the right fit for my child.”
The initiative directly addresses the critical issue of access to high-quality schools in Oklahoma City, Bushey says.
“More than half of Oklahoma City families are assigned to schools with low proficiency rates,” Bushey said. “Many of these families lack the resources to relocate or choose private schools. EnrollOKC.org empowers them to explore nearby options and make informed decisions based on their child’s needs.”
Fuel OKC believes every child deserves a quality education. “EnrollOKC.org is a significant step toward creating a more equitable system by empowering families with information,” Bushey said.
