Regent Open House
Regent Preparatory School of Oklahoma, a classical Christian school in Tulsa, is holding an open house tonight beginning at 7 p.m. for parents interested in the kind of education the school offers. The evening includes a chance to tour the school, visit classrooms, meet teachers and parents, see a video presentation of special school activities, and hear a discussion of the school's philosophy and approach to education.
Regent's new campus is located at 8621 S. Memorial Drive; park and enter on the south side of the building. Call 918-663-1002 for more information.
UPDATE: Brandon Dutcher reminds me about Pat McGuigan's profile of Regent Preparatory School, which appeared in the OCPA's April 2003 newsletter:
In our conversation, I discerned ways in which this institution separates itself from some other private schools where much of the emphasis seems to lie in separation from modern culture and its problems. Regent’s leaders and teachers view the school not as a retreat from the "real world," but as a place to prepare children for that world—and for the life beyond this one.

I encourage you to attend this open house and check out this terrific school. Also, there's a great article about Regent here: http://www.ocpathink.org/ViewPerspectiveStory.asp?ID=111
Instead of a "classical Christian school", it should be a "classical & Christian school". Meaning they teach a classical education in a Christian environment.
Meanwhile, over at Tulsa Public, they are goin' ga-ga over CHINESE.
