Testimonials

Tanya Jones
Superintendent, Tahlequah Public Schools
“GO for Tahlequah gives our community a great opportunity to build an even stronger school system. As funding for public schools continues to be an obstacle in Oklahoma, GO for Tahlequah Public Schools provides additional resources to help our students not only develop a strong educational foundation, but to access other innovative programs that will allow them to excel and own their future.”

Nikki Molloy
Special Services Director, Tahlequah Public Schools
“One of the things I like most about the GO program is that it is focused on empowering our community and taking care of the Oklahoma taxpayer by identifying, developing and investing in innovative programs that elevate education and that have a compelling return on investment to the taxpayer.”

A message from our Superintendent.
Dear Supporters of Tahlequah Public Schools:
Recent changes to state law have created a unique opportunity for businesses and families that support our public schools to earn a significant state income tax credit in the process. The money contributed helps to fund innovative educational programs and will allow us to expand our current educational programs to enhance the learning experiences for all students in Tahlequah Public Schools.
To support our goal of making the benefits of Oklahoma’s education tax credit law more accessible to our entire community, TPS is collaborating with GO for Public Schools, a qualified educational improvement granting organization in the State of Oklahoma established in 2018 specifically to serve public schools.
Please take a few minutes to review the information on this page about the GO for Tahlequah Tax Credit Fund and become more familiar with the benefits. By contributing through GO for Tahlequah, you earn a state income tax credit worth up to 75% of the amount contributed, not just a tax deduction. It also puts your tax dollars to work right here in Tahlequah where our children will see a direct impact, almost immediately.
Thank you in advance for considering making a contribution to benefit students, families, teachers and public schools in our community. Please feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Tanya Jones
Superintendent
