The materials will follow the pacing calendar for Tulsa Public Schools. We hope teachers and parents from ALL school districts feel free to visit the site and utilize these valuable resources.
You

to benefit from the information offered below. If you are

this site to prepare your class and provide are richer experience.
PASS
objectives are currently being updated for the 2006-2007 school
year - Pass objectives
will be organized by subject, then grade (Kindergarten - Grade

at the festival, we have indicated, "festival,"
sometimes followed by a short description. You will also find
references to sections in the Kids'
World Curriculum and other resources.
