Book Catalog Internship Opportunities Join email updates HOME ABOUT MI CCI CLP ... CONTACT Yardstick lifts school ranking September 8, 2004 By Jay P. Greene and Greg Forster Oklahoma students rank 33rd in the nation for academic achievement. At first glance that might not seem like cause to celebrate. But a new study by the Manhattan Institute finds that Oklahoma produces low scores only because its students face more challenges than those in other states. Remove the effects of student characteristics and Oklahoma schools rank a much more heartening 18th in the nation. The best comparison we have for states' academic outcomes is eighth-grade scores on the Nation's Report Card, a test administered by the U.S. Department of Education. Scores for eighth grade are preferable because they're the oldest grade for which state-by-state comparisons are available. By this yardstick, Oklahoma schools don't look good. In reading, 74 percent of Oklahoma students reach the "basic" level of achievement, the lowest level recognized by the test. In math, 65 percent of students reach the "basic" level. These scores rank Oklahoma 33rd in the nation. However, there's more to the story than meets the eye. Some students come to school more ready to learn than others because of factors beyond the schools' control.

As the voice of public education in Oklahoma, the Oklahoma Education Association will seek a legal ruling that ensures every child in Oklahoma is provided an equal opportunity for a constitutionally adequate education. "We must shift the debate from partisan politics to what it actually costs to adequately fund a child's education." Roy Bishop, President Oklahoma Education Association Lawsuits challenging state methods of funding public schools have been brought in 45 of the 50 states. Making the Case for Adequacy and Equity Through its dynamic lobbying efforts, the Oklahoma Education Association year after year has taken the lead in compelling the legislature to improve education funding. Working within the traditional framework of claiming our share of an already determined budget we have celebrated many legislative and organizing successes. In spite of those successes, Oklahoma continues to rank among the bottom five in education funding.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE WEDNESDAY, MAY 19, 2004 WWW.USDOJ.GOV CRT TDD (202) 514-1888 JUSTICE DEPARTMENT REACHES SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT WITH OKLAHOMA SCHOOL DISTRICT IN MUSLIM STUDENT HEADSCARF CASE WASHINGTON, D.C. - The Department of Justice today announced the settlement of a lawsuit alleging that the Muskogee, Oklahoma Public School District had violated the constitutional rights of a sixth-grade Muslim girl when it barred her from wearing a Muslim headscarf, or hijab. Under the consent agreement signed by the parties, the school district will allow the girl to wear the headscarf and will revise its student dress code policy to accommodate exceptions for bona fide religious reasons. “This settlement reaffirms the principle that public schools cannot require students to check their faith at the school house door,” said R. Alexander Acosta, Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights. “The Department of Justice will not tolerate discrimination against Muslims or any other religious group. As the President and the Attorney General have made clear repeatedly, such intolerance is un-American, and is morally despicable.” The Justice Department intervened in this case in March 2004, after an investigation revealed that the school district prohibited the student, Nashala Hearn, from wearing her hijab at Benjamin Franklin Science Academy, a public middle school in Muskogee. The investigation further uncovered that while Hearn was prohibited from wearing her hijab, the school district allowed certain other students to wear head coverings for non-religious purposes. During the 2003-04 school year, the school district twice suspended Nashala Hearn for wearing the hijab. Later, she was permitted her to wear the hijab pending the outcome of the suit.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE TUESDAY, MARCH 30, 2004 WWW.USDOJ.GOV CRT TDD (202) 514-1888 JUSTICE DEPARTMENT FILES COMPLAINT AGAINST OKLAHOMA SCHOOL DISTRICT SEEKING TO PROTECT STUDENT’S RIGHT TO WEAR HEADSCARF TO PUBLIC SCHOOL WASHINGTON, D.C. - The Department of Justice today announced that it will seek to intervene in a lawsuit pending against the Muskogee, Oklahoma Public School District to protect the right of a sixth-grade Muslim girl to wear a headscarf to school. According to the complaint, filed today in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Oklahoma, the student was twice suspended from the Benjamin Franklin Science Academy for refusing to take off her headscarf, or hijab, after being told that it violated the school’s dress code. That code prohibits students from wearing hats, caps, bandanas, or jacket hoods inside school buildings. The girl and her parents filed suit in October 2003. The Justice Department, in addition to its complaint, filed a motion to intervene in the private litigation. The case is entitled Hearn et al. v. Muskogee Public School District 020. “No student should be forced to choose between following her faith and enjoying the benefits of a public education,” said Assistant Attorney General R. Alexander Acosta. “We certainly respect local school systems’ authority to set dress standards, and otherwise regulate their students, but such rules cannot come at the cost of constitutional liberties. Religious discrimination has no place in American schools.”

Mr. Waldo commented on the Financial Advisor's Report given to the Trust and School District. This is a post-sale report of the two school bonds just sold. Mr. Waldo said state law mandates the bonds be issued over a four to five year period, depending upon interest rates, construction, etc. The first two bonds issued were for $16.7 million (equipment bonds) and $66 million (building bonds). The bonds are sold on a competitive, public sale basis. This was the first bond issue from the School District that was put on the internet. All official statements and offering documents were posted on the internet. An internet process was also used for bidding. A change in State law eliminated the requirement for individual bidders to put up a 2% cashier's check. They were instead able to use a surety bid process. Mr. Waldo estimates this approximately doubled the amount of bidders.

CU Web CU Directory General Information History University Mission Philosophy Goals ... Graduate Council History The history of Cameron University corresponds to the history of the area it serves in Southwest Oklahoma. It was founded by the Oklahoma Legislature in 1908 as Cameron State School of Agriculture, one of six agricultural high schools in the state and placed under the jurisdiction of the State Commission of Agriculture and Industrial Education. The institution was named for E.D. Cameron, first State Superintendent of Schools. Baccalaureate degrees were authorized in 1966 by the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education, following action by the Legislature. In May of 1970, the first bachelors degrees were awarded. The institution's name was changed to Cameron College in 1971, and was further amended to Cameron University in 1974. In 1988, the State Regents expanded Cameron's functions to include offerings at the master's degree level. This change in function was the first granted to an Oklahoma institution since Cameron was given authority to offer bachelors degrees more than 20 years earlier. The first master's degrees were awarded to forty-one graduates in May of 1990. In May of 1992, an act of the legislature transferred the governance of Cameron University to the board which had previously governed only the University of Oklahoma. This new relationship with the University of Oklahoma has been hailed as the opportunity to underscore the emergence of Cameron as an interactive multi-purpose University. Today, Cameron is viewed as a technologically progressive higher education center of Southwest Oklahoma positioned to fulfill the requirements of its interactive philosophy and mission.
