The mission of the Miss Oklahoma’s Outstanding Teen Scholarship Pageant is to provide an opportunity for Oklahoma’s young teenage ladies to compete in a first-class teen scholarship pageant and to encourage them to continue pursuing their talents, become positive influences in their communities and develop into mature, responsible young women of the highest morals and integrity.

The Pageant provides an opportunity for young teenage ladies in Oklahoma to engage in a formal interview with the judges, helping them develop positive communication skills for life. The young ladies will also focus on their personal fitness training in preparation for the active wear competition. The casual wear competition will show each contestant’s sense of style and self-confidence as she models on stage. Their gracefulness and poise will be demonstrated in the evening wear competition and their marvelous talents will be presented during the talent competition.

Areas of Competition and their respective percentages of their score:

Private Interview – 25%

On-stage Question/Evening Wear – 20%

Talent – 35%

Active Wear – 10%

Scholastic Achievement – 10%

Each contestant is encouraged to reach her educational goals and aspirations and to serve her community by becoming involved in local community service. Truly, the contestants for Miss Oklahoma’s Outstanding Teen are graceful, talented, poised and confident young ladies that will be the future leaders for our great state.

The cycle for each pageant season begins after the state pageant which is held in the month of June.  After the state pageant, local pageants are conducted throughout the state from June to the following February.  The months of March, April, and May are spent getting all information ready for the contestants to compete at the state competition.  Once a contestant wins the title of Miss Oklahoma’s Outstanding Teen, she immediately begins preparing for Miss America’s Outstanding Teen held in August of that same year.
