OKLAHOMA CITY, Oklahoma, March 26 -- The Oklahoma State School Boards Association issued the following statement by Executive Director Shawn Hime:
I applaud state representatives for taking an important first step toward a long-term funding plan for public schools that includes competitive teacher pay. Our teachers, students and schools need this. This plan addresses the most immediate crisis in our classrooms: the shrinking pool of educators willing to teach in Oklahoma.
