On March 12, Gov. Fallin signed into law Senate Bill 1959

1. The AFT has not been involved with the committee that made a proposal to add time to our work year. We do not have a representative on the committee, have not provided input, nor were we asked to participate.
2. Any extension of your workday or work year must be negotiated. The district has not informed us of their desire to negotiate this issue.

The Oklahoma City AFT has for some time been advocating for education reform, being part of the solution, not part of the problem. We know serious change is on the way, whether developed locally or at the state or national level. Some of the anticipated reform is now before us, as a result of the U.S. Department of Education’s approval of Oklahoma’s Elementary and Secondary Education Act Flexibility Waiver Request.

Leaders have reached a deal regarding National Board stipends.
