Does anyone know if there is some mechanism for the general public to provide funds to the education system in Oklahoma? Something like a gofundme page where it is clear the money is going to the system and not getting mis-used or mis-directed?
Here's a link to current projects that teachers in OKCPS are requesting: https://www.donorschoose.org/donors/search.html?state=OK&cit...
I haven't used the site yet, but know of several teachers who were able to purchase things for their classroom (computers, instruments, etc) that they wouldn't have been able to afford otherwise thanks to people asking questions like yours!
I think this article touches on at least one of the problems: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2017/aug/21/univer...
