As a graduate of Holland Hall, I can tell you all the statistics... something like 99 percent of all graduates go on to complete college, it's one of the best private schools in the country (top 20), etc.
And it's absolutely fantastic. Your kids are going to learn a bunch. But be prepared for the "rich kid" atmosphere... there's tremendous social pressure to wear the right socks, the right shoes, etc. Even though everyone wears uniforms, the kids find a way to find out who's rich and who isn't.
At $12,000 a year, it's certainally the best school, but depending on your house finances, may not be the best school for the money. If you have a kid in K-8, Trinity is about 1/4th the cost and is a excelent school. Or other cheaper options are Victory and Bishop Kelly.
But if you want the absolute best, Holland Hall is probably it.

When applying to colleges in High School, I was initially scared by TU's price tag. I later realized... NO ONE pays full price! There's so much scholarship money to go around, I would up paying less than I would have going to OU.
TU's small class sizes are really great. I'm 3 years out of school, and am still friends with some of my teachers. They're there to really coach you... not just thru the class, but thru college, and into the real world.
Their career center is top-notch. The can hook you up with jobs with dozens of Fortune 500 companies... and you're a PERSON, not a number like at OU (where my sister goes).
Anyway, I recomend anyone from the Tulsa area to apply to TU, and check out their financial aid. I'm betting you'll be pleasently surprised.

My dream was to go to TU my whole life. In 1999, it came true. I transferred from Tulsa Community College to TU and never regretted it. I got a great finacial aid package, practically covering the cost of my education! I had great teachers and counselors and friends. I got involved in TUTV as a Host/Reporter, Staff Writer of The T.U. Collegian, and Producer/D.J. of The Underground 101.5, in addition to being involved in Baptist Student Union. When I graduated in Dec. 2002, I actually grieved. I didn't want to leave my second family. Now, I work as a freelancer and am proud of the fact I am the first Gibson to graduate college in my family...and for that...I will always be a Tulsa Hurricane...GOTU!!!

Last week I had to prune a tree in my garden. I went to this store to buy a pair of pruners. I found out the most impressive about the salesperson was he did not try to sell me the most expensive pruners that they have but the best quality and the good price which was a true value brand pruner that fits all my pruning needs.

A good friend of mine sends her daughter to this daycare... she's ALWAYS talking about how great it is. They have all sorts of interesting activities for the kids to do every day - always something different.
The one drawback - they only take school aged kids. So if you have a second one that's under 5... you either have to have 2 different daycares, or your out of luck.

More
Booker T Washington is a "magnet school" in the Tulsa area that balances racial diversity with academic performance. Booker T and Edison High School are the ONLY two magnet schools in the Tulsa School system... and it's a night and day difference compared to the other high schools.
One thing to note: You have to apply in Jan or Feb to get a transfer to these schools for the next school year. So you have to think about it early.

More
One of the best colleges hat I have ever heard of. There majors account for so much in the business industry and the law school is amazing and difficult to not only get into, but to go through. The only problem with this college is that they are so expensive, not many people could afford this
