FOIA Request to Oklahoma State Board of Education Regarding Instructional Mandates for State K-12 Schools on December 10, 2024.
As part of our ongoing efforts to provide comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, we at Sooner State News have submitted a request under the Oklahoma Open Records Act, 51 §24A.1 et seq., for records pertaining to instructional mandates for state K-12 schools.
Our request specifically asks for a list of all required courses and/or general instruction in the state's K-12 schools. This information is critical in our mission to hold public institutions accountable and provide transparency to the public.
As a media organization, we believe access to public records is essential in fulfilling our professional responsibilities. In light of this, we have requested a fee waiver as a media professional.
We await the response from the Oklahoma State Board of Education and will keep our readers updated with any developments.
