In response to both Tulsa Public Schools and Mustang Public Schools violating HB 1775, which “protects our children across the state from being taught revisionist history and that ‘one race or sex is inherently superior to another race or sex,’ or that ‘an individual, by his or her race or sex, is inherently racist, sexist or oppressive, whether consciously or unconsciously,” the Oklahoma State Board of Education voted to give the schools an “accreditation with a warning,” which is the third of a five-step process.
The notice will demand the two districts show that they have made the modifications necessary to meet the board’s standards.

According to Townhall, the event was first revealed when the board found out that the school districts held a training course for teachers, including lessons on how “to shame white people for past offenses in history.”
In addition, Tulsa Public Schools was recently found to have made two books with explicit content available to students in middle school.

Heath Merchen offered a comment on Feb. 1, saying he was “writing on behalf of the Oklahoma Education Association to propose an addition” to the agency’s HB 1775 regulations “to protect teachers from litigation that may follow the implementation of the rule if School Districts are non-compliant and require teachers to instruct in a manner that could violate the standard.”
Merchen said the OEA wanted the HB 1775 regulations to include language stating, “No individual teacher or school employee shall be found in violation of this provision, or face any form of discipline, retaliation, or other adverse consequence due to an alleged violation of this provision if the teacher or school employee is teaching the curriculum approved by their employing school district, notwithstanding that the employing school district may be found to have violated this provision.”

Merchen’s LinkedIn page identifies him as an attorney for the OEA, and the comment was submitted from an OEA email account.
State Rep. Kevin West, a Moore Republican who was House author of HB 1775, is not surprised.
