Oklahoma public schools will receive $1.5 billion in stimulus funds this month, nearly doubling the amount of federal aid distributed to school districts since the COVID-19 pandemic began.

President Joe Biden signed the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan Act into law last week. The stimulus package includes $122.8 billion for K-12 schools nationwide...

Boy, o boy -I sure hope there is some type of accountability or spreadsheet to see how the money is applied to schools. Please!

I see lots of remodeled offices, new state-owned take-home cars and Carribbean job-related seminars coming up.

In many districts in OK it will just pay to cover up chronically bad decisions. Repubs have always said throwing money at education won't improve our schools. I think we know what they mean and why.
