For the seventh consecutive year, all six Bartlesville Elementary Schools have been named a Project Lead The Way (PLTW) Distinguished School, placing them each among a select group of elementary schools across the U.S. to receive this honor for its commitment to increasing student access, engagement, and achievement in career-connected learning through PLTW Launch, an elementary STEM curriculum.

Congratulations to Hoover Elementary School, Jane Phillips Elementary School, Ranch Heights Elementary School, Richard Kane Elementary School, Wayside Elementary School, and Wilson Elementary School on this distinguished honor.

PLTW is a national nonprofit organization that creates transformative learning experiences and empowers students to develop in-demand knowledge and skills for future careers.

The PLTW Distinguished School recognition honors schools committed to increasing student access, engagement, and achievement in their PLTW programs. To be eligible for the designation, the schools had to have more than 75 percent of the student body participating in the program and had to offer at least one PLTW Launch module at each grade level during the 2024-25 school year.
