Bishop Kelley High School is a co-educational Lasallian Catholic high school with approximately 950 students, grades 9 through 12, located in the center of the Tulsa metropolitan area on a 47-acre campus. The school was founded in 1960 and is operated in the Lasallian tradition of the Brothers of the Christian Schools. The mission of Bishop Kelley High School is to carry on the teaching ministry of Jesus Christ by providing a Catholic, Lasallian education that develops individuals whose hearts and minds are prepared for a purposeful life. Educators are role models for young people. This is especially true of educators in a Catholic school. What one does both inside and outside the classroom matters, for example, is a more powerful teacher than words. Educators employed by Bishop Kelley High School are required to become familiar with the specifications of their contract and to live lives and speak words consistent with church teachings. If a teacher’s behavior becomes a matter of scandal to the school or to the community it serves, the administration has a legal and moral obligation to address it. As St. Francis of Assisi said: “Preach the gospel to all the world, and if necessary, use words.” Not every educator employed by Bishop Kelley High School is required to teach the content of the Catholic faith as educators in a Catholic school, however, we may not publicly oppose it. Bishop Kelley High School serves Catholic and non-Catholic families seeking a college preparatory program within a Christian environment of concern, trust, and growth.
