Superintendent's Welcome

Dr. Gary W. Quinn, Superintendent

Welcome to the Bartlesville Public School District.

Though we recently concluded our 2007-08 academic year and are in the midst of our summer break, we are still all about "Excellence In Education."

We are continually striving to make the Bartlesville Public School District the best in the nation. Nestled in this fine community of approximately 35,000 people, the Bartlesville Public School District serves approximately 6,000 students from pre-kindergarten through the 12th grade. Our students participate in gifted and talented programs, award-winning vocal and instrumental music endeavors, art, athletics, college advanced placement (AP) courses and challenging curriculum to best prepare them for the future.

Standing behind our teachers and staff are the members of the Bartlesville community and the parents of our students. Bruin pride is evident throughout our community whether at athletic events, fine arts performances, classroom volunteer programs or in the academic achievements of our students.

We hope you enjoy learning more about the Bartlesville Public School District as you explore our web site. We take great pride in our district, for as we often like to say: It's a great time to be a Bruin.
