​​How wonderful it is that we need not wait a single moment before starting to change the world." - Anne Frank

The Oklahoma Educators Hall of Fame was constituted and incorporated in 1984 as a nonprofit organization to recognize and to honor those professionals who have exemplified a commitment of quality public-supported education while demonstrating exceptional abilities in realizing the ideals of Phi Delta Kappa through leadership, service, and research through their contribution to Oklahoma education.
