After their attempt to create what would have been the nation’s first religious charter school was ended by a U.S. Supreme Court ruling , the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Oklahoma City and the Diocese of Tulsa have announced plans to open a Catholic virtual school in Oklahoma.

St. Carlo Acutis Classical Academy will be a private school, not a charter school. It will open in August 2026, the archdiocese announced on Monday, Sept. 8. The new school will enroll students in kindergarten through eighth grades for the 2026-27 school year, with new grades added every year until the academy is K-12.
