Tulsa Public Schools
A School District Serving 40,000 students across 80 schools in Oklahoma, USA
Tulsa Public Schools is a large school district serving thousands of constituents across more than 80 schools. Awarded gold in the 2018 MarComm Awards, the district’s Best-in-Class, custom design is one of the most innovative and stunning district designs we’ve worked on (or seen, for that matter)!
What's more — this beautiful website maintains stringent accessibility guidelines. Tulsa’s website design and structure meets WCAG 2.0 standards, and went through a thorough QA check prior to launch. In addition, the district uses AudioEye’s Ally Toolbar and managed service. The toolbar allows website visitors to customize their website experience based on their own need — such as changing color contrast or enabling a screen reader — while the managed service keeps Tulsa’s website content accessible at all times, automatically.

Our Teams
Tulsa keeps department information organized by categories — each image button leads to a corresponding page with subsections. This page is just another example of how well its website caters to such a large district population. If a district with more than six thousand team members can provide an uncluttered department overview, anyone can!
