Free Market Friday: Charter school students deserve equitable funding By: Jonathan Small Guest Columnist April 8, 2021
Jonathan Small
For years, some of Oklahoma’s best public schools have received less funding than underperforming counterparts. That inequity may soon end thanks to the State Board of Education, and Oklahomans should welcome that change.
Charter schools are public schools that operate under legal agreement with a sponsor. If the charter fails, it can be shut down – in stark contrast to similar traditional public schools. In exchange, the charter is granted certain operational flexibility.
Many charters have been wildly successful. Look over the state’s A-F report cards for schools in Oklahoma City and Tulsa, and you’ll notice a trend. Nearly all the A and B schools are charter schools. Nearly all the F schools are traditional public schools – even though the charters serve predominantly low-income students.

Lawton Public Schools planning lawsuit against the State Board of Education
Lawton Public Schools planning lawsuit against the State Board of Education By Tiffany Bechtel | April 6, 2021 at 8:31 PM CDT - Updated April 6 at 8:31 PM
LAWTON, Okla. (TNN) - Lawton Public Schools is planning on filing a lawsuit against the State Board of Education because of a recent Charter School Settlement.
The Oklahoma State Board of Education decided in a 4-3 vote to equalize funding between public schools and charter schools.
This could force school districts to share more money to charter schools.
The decision came from a 2017 lawsuit in which Oklahoma Public Charter School Association sued the State Board of Education to receive the same funding sources as school districts.
