The Tulsa Health Department's school health programs focus on two age groups: elementary-aged children (Pre-K through 5th or 6th grade, depending on the school district) and middle to high school students (5th or 6th grade through 12th grade).

The elementary program aims to improve both the health and academic achievement of Tulsa County schoolchildren. It does so through collaboration with students, schools, and the community, aligning health and learning through comprehensive nutrition and health education.

The middle and high school program centers around the Personal Responsibility Education Program (PREP), which empowers young adults to make responsible decisions and educates them about the consequences of sexual activity.
