Just for the people who are denigrating Tulsa and how it may be a backwards place for kids' schools. I graduated from a public high school in Tulsa. In our graduating class, we had students accepted to Harvard, to MIT, Yale, Penn, Michigan, and Duke. In the graduating class after mine, we had 3 accepted to Stanford. This was just one public school district, although definitely one of the best in the city.
I am not sure that there are that many cities with public schools that can boast such placement.
George Kaiser (the gazillionaire who started the foundation that pays for this program) is a very active Harvard alum in addition to being an impressive philanthropist.
