Does Happy Hands Education Center take Oklahoma's Parental Choice Tax Credit?
Yes. Happy Hands Education Center shows up in the OkTAP registration file the Tax Commission posted on September 3, 2026, which means it can email families the Enrollment Verification Number that the OkTAP application needs. For 2027-28 you would file between 9 a.m. on March 15 and 11:59 p.m. on June 15, 2027, and the credit would be $5,000 to $7,500 per child depending on household income, never more than this school's tuition and fees.
OSDE's Lindsey Nicole Henry list dated October 28, 2026 also includes Happy Hands Education Center, for grades PK-3. Families of a child on an IEP, or of a service member's child who moved here on PCS orders, can apply online in PCG Scholar; OSDE's posted cutoff for the current school year is December 1.
How many students attend Happy Hands Education Center?

If the school offers a church-member or multi-child price, ask how it is recorded: a discount on the school's books reduces the tuition the state credit is figured on.
