Founded in 1960 on a Catholic, Lasallian foundation, Bishop Kelley High School provides a comprehensive, college preparatory education to students across the city of Tulsa. This private institution enrolls around 800 students from grades nine through 12, less than the city average. This allows class sizes to remain small, with a student-teacher ratio of less than 15-to-1. Nearly 100% of students go on to attend college immediately following graduation from Bishop Kelley High School.
At Bishop Kelley, students are academically challenged with diverse class options and a choice of over 42 honors and advanced placement courses. Beyond their comprehensive coursework, students also have the option to choose from nearly 40 different clubs and organizations. These clubs cover interests from world languages to photography and more. Other extracurricular activities include the choice of over a dozen sporting teams, such as cheer, swimming and golf, and a bevy of school activities such as pep rallies and school dances.
Bishop Kelley students are also encouraged to give back to their community with the school logging 39,000 student service hours annually. Bishop Kelley prides itself on preparing students not just for a secure academic future, but for a purposeful life.

Bishop Kelley provided a very good high school education and experience. I feel that it prepared me very well for the challenges and trials in college and provided me a firm foundation to excel in higher education. Furthermore the sports, clubs, and focus on faith provided a comprehensive environment that nourished me.

I love BK. I have always dreamed of loving school, and BK makes it easy to do so. It is challenging, but I know it is always worth it in the end. All the teachers are super supporting in every way!! I would recommend BK to any family of any kind, everyone fits in. Also, they are currently renovating buildings, but the campus is gorgeous. Best high school experience I could ask for!

If you are new and not Catholic good luck in finding friends. The lunch schedule makes it impossible to keep them. Also, they have a huge cur...

This school does not care about the safety of its students. During covid, very minimal measures were taken. These measures were not enforced. The restrictions were gradually lifted, and that would be fine if the numbers were not still rising. As hospitals filled up, so were school hallways as the sc...
