From the
Desk of Superintendent
Lee Coker:
A change is on the horizon
in education. Oklahoma has joined numerous other states in adopting
a "Core Curriculum". This curriculum will be the basis by
which our students will be tested. Teacher evaluations will be
partially based on how their students perform on these standardized
tests. This will mark the first time that a majority of states will
be aiming at a common set of standards in educating our students.
States will be able to compare test scores in an "apples to
apples" scenario. Any time change is approaching, it is a
little scary. Our teachers have already begun to receive training on
the common core and will continue to learn more as implementation day gets
closer. We look forward to being prepared for this new era in
education. Your children will ultimately be the ones who
benefit.
