Tulsa, Jenks & Sapulpa School Districts To Take Legal Action

By: Amy Kauffman, Kristin Wells
TULSA, Oklahoma -
Tulsa Public Schools board of education decided Monday night join other districts and pursue legal action against the Oklahoma State Board of Education.
The action is after the State Board of Education settled a lawsuit with the Oklahoma Public Charter School Association and voted to give taxpayer money to charter schools.
Tulsa School Board Members voted unanimously to join a new lawsuit that said the state board needs to reverse its decision.
The state school board voted to settle a four-year long lawsuit with the Oklahoma Public Charter Schools Association that had argued public and charter schools should be funded the same way. The charter schools had claimed their schools should also get money from state funds like motor vehicle tax and gross production tax that go to traditional public schools.
