Before Oklahoma achieved statehood, there were no public school systems in the land that had been termed, "Indian Territory." Schools were run by tribal governments, churches, the U.S. government, or a combination of the three. Shortly after Oklahoma became a state in 1907, the small town of Jenks opened the first building of the Jenks Public School system. For more than 100 years, Jenks Public Schools has been providing students with a quality education in an environment known nationwide for high academic standards and innovation. Jenks Public Schools serves more than 12,000 students and it is the eleventh largest public school district in the state of Oklahoma. Jenks Public Schools is in the top 1% of schools in the State of Oklahoma, and the District`s dedication to excellence has led to academic success as well as both local and national recognition. The District motto, “A Tradition of Excellence with a Vision for Tomorrow,” serves as a guide for all Jenks educators as they help prepare today`s students for the future.

The eStem Charter Management Organization will work with all charter schools to offer these services. The schools will offer a choice for all students in central Arkansas, including students from families who would not be able to afford private schools or homes in attendance zones of higher performing public schools. The schools plan to compete for students, for teachers, for administrators, and for private funding with both private and other public schools. They will use the latest educational techniques, such as longitudinal tracking, to measure improvements for each individual student from quarter to quarter and year to year. Their students’ performance will be compared with other students throughout the United States, and the schools will make these results available and transparent for families and the community to see. The ultimate goal is to have the highest performing schools in Arkansas based on improvement in individual student achievement from year to year.
