Quote:Okla. debate over US history overshadows education cuts, critics say
Education budget cuts are the real scandal, say educators and policy analysts

Quote:Since the Great Recession, Oklahoma has implemented the most stringent education cuts across the country. State funding is down over 20 percent per pupil, according to David Blatt, executive director of the Oklahoma Policy Institute, a think tank.

Last week, House Speaker Jeffrey Hickman announced there would be no money for teacher raises in 2015. And proposals for more education funding — that would address teacher shortages and increasing the number of school days, for example — would likely not even be heard by the legislature due to a projected $600 million budget shortfall, local media reported.
