Welcome to
the United Suburban Schools Association of Oklahoma website.
This site is designed to provide our members with current,
historical and contact information to facilitate your
awareness of our endeavors in behalf of our members and their
students.
The United Suburban Schools Association is an organization of
large and/or suburban school districts that represents
approximately 40% of the student population of the public
schools of Oklahoma. To be a member, a district must be
in or near the Tulsa or Oklahoma City metropolitan area, or
have an enrollment of 3,000 students or more. USSA was founded
in 1993.
Some of the needs of large school districts and rapidly
growing school districts are very different from those of
smaller districts, or those who student enrollment is static.
Despite the challenges that come with rapid growth, these
districts demonstrate a high quality of instruction, student
achievement, innovative programs, extra-curricular activity,
and student attendance. USSA
is needed in order to address those needs adequately while at
the same time keeping the district's accomplishments before
the parents, communities, the press, the public, state
agencies, and the Oklahoma Legislature.
The USSA is the voice of the large and growing school
districts at the Oklahoma State Capitol.
