OROS 2012 LEGISLATIVE
GOALS
Oppose legislation mandating
consolidation or combining of
administrative units based on number
of students, number of districts,
and/or size (square miles) of a
district.
OROS asks that any discussions of
reductions in Oklahoma's income tax
rate be deferred until public
schools and career techs are funded
at the amount required to provide
the best education possible for our
school children.
Support legislation that leads to
greater student achievement and
higher graduation rates.
Support legislation that provides
additional funding to common
education and increased flexibility
enabling school districts to better
meet the learning needs of Oklahoma
school children.
Support
restoring the accreditation
mandates waived by HB 3029; such
as class size limitations,
employing library/media
specialists, and purchasing
textbooks by restoring state
financial support for common
education to the FY ‘09 level.
Oppose legislation that reduces or
limits growth in Ad Valorem or any
other segment of the tax base for
public schools.
Support
efforts to repel all existing
state transferable tax credits.
Support
legislation that increases the
portion of state income tax
collections dedicated to the Ad
Valorem Reimbursement Fund from 1%
to 2%.
Support removing the requirement of
a 60% supermajority for passage of
school bond issues.
