Oklahoma legislation set to listen to some new education-based bills
OKLAHOMA CITY (KSWO) – The Oklahoma Legislature is set to hear a number of bills that could impact schools across the state.
One bill would adjust teacher pay in Oklahoma setting the starting salary at $50,000 and shifting other pay tiers to reflect that change.
Another bill would task school districts to adopt and enforce policies restricting cell phone use in the class with minimal exceptions.
The third education bill would prevent universities in Oklahoma from using state funds to support diversity-focused efforts and programs.
