Early voting starts this week for the August 25th election. EVERYONE has something on their ballots. REPUBLICANS have at least two statewide runoff races: Governor and State Superintendent of Public Instruction.
Educators are some of the most caring and giving people! It's time we voted for the things we care about. Let's vote in record high numbers to show we care about our profession!

This week I announced my NEA Director reelection campaign.

While I don't officially begin the role until September 1st, this year I'm completing the term of Zach Grimm, who has assumed the position of OEA Vice President. During the recent Representative Assembly, I sat in on the Board meeting and met some of my fellow Directors. Training starts next week. I'm excited to represent Oklahoma!

Join me here for the journey.
