It looks like we have a new shady online charter school to welcome to Oklahoma!
On Tuesday, Ryan Walters walked into his office, hooked up some crusty tape recorder mics straight out of 1987, and recorded a video announcing that he’s welcoming something called the “American Virtual Academy” – a “pro-American, patriotic education” online charter school grift – to Oklahoma.
Just like with Class Wallet, Prager U, and all the other schemes that Ryan has unleashed on Oklahoma, the academy appears to be nothing more than a school choice grift that will siphon money from public schools and put it in the pockets of right-wing psychopaths who hate public education.
