That middle school also had actual riots where multiple teachers were injured. They were very good at limiting news coverage - this was part of a stupid program of consolidating schools that was a horrific disaster. (No consideration about gang territory or bus lines.)
I also knew a guy who was hired without a background check as an adjunct/emergency certification - and they gave him a cafeteria for a classroom. (Requirements a few years ago relaxed to just require a college degree in anything, now even that’s optional. The nicer districts brag about all of their teachers having college degrees.)
I have been trying to blow so many whistles for so long, but absolutely no one gives a shit. The Supe is too busy spending Ed money on Trump Bibles.
Have you considered talking to the news? This is all profoundly abnormal. I know journalism is mainly dead, but it's the kind of story John Oliver might pick up anyway.
Trust me - I have tried. I’ve left hundreds of voicemails with elected officials and local news media. Both about education and child abuse in mental health care.
Oklahoma has been a failed state under Project 2025 style policies for the past ten years.
Thanks for what you do. The struggle could be worth it if you make a meaningful difference is just one young life, and I bet you have already done more than that.
