The Indian Pupil Education program's seven Resource Advisors are Oklahoma State certificated professional educators who deliver Indian education services and develop programs for Tulsa Public School students and families. A Resources Advisor is an important contact for school administrators, teachers, parents, and students who need immediate help regarding a broad spectrum of educational concerns. Resource Advisors have developed many successful programs since 1973 and will continue to strive to serve the Native American student. Our Resource Advisors represent many backgrounds and bring their experience, knowledge, and cultural understanding into Indian Pupil Education services.
