Outdoor Classroom - Tulsa

We loved partnering with Oklahoma Blue Thumb to bring hands-on water cycle learning to Jefferson Elementary!

Great conversations and collaboration with partners across the STEM ecosystem! STEM³ was a fantastic experience, bringing educators together for hands-on, phenomena-based learning outdoors. We’re proud to work with the Tulsa Regional STEM Alliance and so many dedicated partners supporting STEM education in our community.

Thanks for joining us! STEM^3 was fantastic and the collaboration created a rich learning environment for phenomena based learning - outdoors!

Staying on target starts with clear expectations. At Outdoor Classroom Tulsa field classes, students begin each experience with shared expectations — and those expectations are reinforced throughout their Adventure Trails. This structure helps students stay focused, build confidence, and develop skills that extend far beyond the field.

Outdoor Classroom Tulsa works hand-in-hand with educators across the region to bring science to life. Teachers consistently tell us they see students more engaged, more confident, and more curious after learning outdoors - outcomes reflected in our Annual Report data. Thank you to our partner schools for trusting us with your students. For a full list of participating schools and agencies, check out our annual report at outdoorclassroom.org.

This is what outdoor learning looks like. Every Outdoor Classroom Tulsa field class invites students to learn science by doing - exploring ecosystems, asking questions, and discovering what they’re capable of outside the classroom walls.

More on how these experiences shape student learning in our 2025 Annual Report at outdoorclassroom.org.
