K-12 Outreach
Honors K-12 Outreach
In line with our land grant mission and OSU’s strategic plan, K-12 Outreach is the Honors College’s answer to elevating and amplifying extension while increasing access to students across Oklahoma. Honors is in the service of developing and promoting diverse educational endeavors, and to reflect this in extension, our K-12 programing is aimed at fostering curiosity, exploration, and lifelong learning throughout Oklahoma and beyond. The Honors College’s goal of K-12 Outreach is to provide space, support, and resources to K-12 programs that occur outside the classroom to ensure students of all ages and backgrounds can have opportunities to go broader and deeper into their academic passions through different means. In turn, our K-12 Outreach aims to promote the Ideal Graduate by providing opportunities for our current Honors students to practice engaged citizenship, ethical leadership, and personal responsibility by serving K-12 students through intentional and meaningful outreach programming.
