Education
Education is vital to a thriving community. In Ottawa county, we have seven public school districts, a two-year Junior college, and a technical school. A private elementary school is also available.
NEO is dedicated to providing opportunities that promote excellence in learning, service, and leadership in a global society. For over a century, NEO has been preparing students to be successful in life. NEO offers over fifty program options from five academic departments. These departments range from the Agriculture Department, with its long tradition of outstanding practical training, to the Communication and Fine Arts Department, which allows students to act, write, and perform, while preparing them for the future.
As a premier two-year college in Oklahoma and the surrounding four-state area, NEO understands the importance not only of providing education for our students, but also supporting them. Through the Center for Academic Success and Advising, students receive personalized assistance with their questions. NEO’s Reach Higher program allows working adults to return and finish their degree. NEO offers courses at the NEO Grove Center at Grove, Okla., and online/hybrid for students at a distance.
