Academic All-Staters

Congratulations to the 2026 Academic All-State class! These 100 top public high school seniors, selected from hundreds of nominations statewide, hail from 63 schools in 58 Oklahoma school districts.

This is the Oklahoma Foundation for Excellence’s 40th class of Academic All-State scholars. Since the program’s inception in 1987, 4,001 high school seniors from 345 school districts have been named Academic All-Staters. Three schools are celebrating their first Academic All-Stater: Fox, Grandfield and Tulsa Honor Academy. Grandfield and Tulsa Honor Academy each have two All-Staters, marking the first time since 2008 that a school’s first two All-Staters have occurred in the same class.

This year’s class scored an average of 33 on the ACT, with nine honorees scoring a perfect 36. The students’ weighted average GPA was 4.36. Thirty-eight are semifinalists in the National Merit Scholarship Program.

Each All-Stater receives a $1,500 merit-based cash award, honor cord and a medallion. They will be recognized at the 40th annual Academic Awards Celebration on May 2 at the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City.
