The 4th educational think tank meeting will be held on Tuesday, November 24 at 3pm in room 419C at the State Capitol, according to State Senator Anastasia Pittman. Community leaders, parents, administrators, pastors, teachers, homeschool educators, and other interested groups are invited to attend the meeting to discuss and define the vision of the curriculum in Oklahoma schools.
Dr. Belinda Biscoe, Associate Vice President of University Outreach at the University of Oklahoma will facilitate the meeting where discussion will build on topics previously discussed, including identification of issues relating to diversity, inclusion and curriculum. Pittman said the goal is to create a “roadmap” for the future of education in the state and to create a curriculum that embraces diversity and differences in programming.
By involving representatives from all key groups with a vested interest in education, Pittman hopes participants can continue to brainstorm on the creation of a program that will define and spotlight the most important issues the state’s education system will face in the coming years.
“Round table discussions like this are great opportunities to come together and share ideas for improvement,”
