49th Is Not OK | Rally For School Funding

TEACHERS HAVE BEEN CUT

Hundreds of teachers have been trimmed from Oklahoma public schools, not based on merit but seniority — even if they leave through attrition they will not be replaced.

PROGRAMS HAVE BEEN THREATENED

There has been a loss of vital programs such as language, art, athletics and technology.

CLASS SIZES HAVE INCREASED

Class sizes will continue to increase to sizes that are much higher than the 20:1 ratio that was promised in HB 1017.

TUTORING HAS BEEN CUT

Tutoring programs in many Oklahoma public
schools have ceased to be funded.

Today, the state of Oklahoma ranks 49th in expenditures per student. That's not okay. In fact, it's a state of disgrace. We must take action. Source
