The Tulsa Public Schools Board of Education will meet Monday night to discuss the latest on COVID-19. The meeting could also result in the resignation of a board member.
Dr. Jerry Griffin has hinted online that he may be resigning. He was elected to represent District 6 in June 2020 with his term set to expire in April 2024. Dr. Griffin told News On 6 that he has already written his letter of resignation, it is just a matter of if he turns it in at Monday night's meeting.
Currently, Tulsa Public Schools students are set to remain in distance learning until Monday, March 22. Dr. Griffin said he made a formal request to the board president, Stacey Woolley, at the last board meeting that they should discuss students returning before that date. He said the board president indicated she would hear that item during the February 1 meeting, but has now refused to even list it.
