Happy Teachers Walkout Day!
Back in early March, everyone assumed today would be the first day of a perhaps multi-week teachers walkout over low pay and general cuts to education funding in Oklahoma. But now, with Mary Fallin and Oklahoma lawmakers agreeing to a head-scratching $6,000 teacher pay raise that somehow increases the GPT and still ignores our state's many other funding issues, I don't think anyone really knows what's going on.
