Every child in Oklahoma deserves the opportunity to thrive through a strong education, one that doesn’t depend on where they live or how much their family earns. Okies First fights so that our schools are fully funded, our teachers are respected and paid fairly, and our classrooms are safe and prepared for the future.
Too many schools continue to operate under-funded or are forced to make painful cutbacks.
Large disparities remain from ZIP code to ZIP code in facility quality, access to advanced coursework, and student outcomes.
Teacher pay fails to keep pace with rising costs, triggering turnover and burnout.
Join us in putting education first. Sign up for updates on our school-funding campaigns, meet the teachers we’re supporting, and help shape the future of Oklahoma’s next generation.
