This is a great program I was proud to advance at the Capitol. It will help schools address their teacher shortages by helping support staff becom certified teachers. #oklaed #okelections2026 oklahomavoice.com/2025/12/24/new…

Great conversation with @KOCOEvan for Oklahoma Chronicle on the top issues we'll focus on next year at the Capitol. Hope you can give it a watch. koco.com/article/oklaho… #oklaed

It’s #GivingTuesday - a great day to support Oklahoma nonprofits lifting up our students & teachers. If you’re able, consider donating to an education-focused org in your community. Every gift helps provide resources & opportunities for students & educators. #OklaEd

My family and I are so incredibly thankful to God for all the #blessings in our lives - not the least of which are the prayers and support of family and friends this year during the campaign. Our prayer is that you have a safe and joyous #Thanksgiving with your loved ones.

Great visit last week in #Ardmore w/ Leadership Ardmore. Programs like this are great for communities to connect civically-minded citizens with their neighbors & businesses to engage on important issues. Enjoyed listening and talking #oklaed & #okleg.

Spent the day at Edmond Memorial HS with some wonderful teacher friends & their students. Discussed #OklahomaPromise for teachers & gave a preview of the next #okleg session. Hung out w/ Ms Nichols and talked govt & politics with her speech and debate classes. #oklaed

It was an honor to join Claremore school officials to surprise these excellent educators! #oklaed More than 30 Claremore teachers awarded bonus stipends through Oklahoma’s OTEP Program fox23.com/news/more-than… via @FOX23

Spent day at Educare, a public-private partnership using a multi-generational approach to #education. They help families thrive prior to pre-k, when 80% of brain development occurs. A great day w/educators & community leaders working toward generational change through #education

I had the great honor to visit 7 schools for #VeteransDay celebrations. Patriotism is alive & well in Oklahoma! I encourage everyone to spend time in a school to see these young people in action. It’s a wonderful reminder of the good in the world. #oklaed #okelections2026

Four generations of my family have served from WWI to the GWOT, OIF, OEF. I'm proud to count myself amongst a small few...that others might be free! Thank you to all those who have worn the uniform in service to America. Happy #VeteransDay.

Proud to champion this measure at the Capitol. As state superintendent, I'll make sure we continue investing in proven, high-impact tutoring to close learning gaps & build stronger outcomes for students. #oklaed #okelections2026 ou.edu/news/articles/…

There was a lot of good food Saturday night but I had the best team! Appreciate the Stephens County GOP putting on a great event and having us at the chili cook-off. #oklaed #okelections2026 #okpolitics

Okla remains committed to students with special needs. We’ll continue to work with schools, parents & communities to ensure that never wavers. #oklaed #okelections2026 bit.ly/3IOtf8D

Appreciate the chance to talk to the Republican Women of Central Oklahoma today. I love traveling the state & speaking with grassroots groups about our fight to deliver results for students, parents, & teachers! #oklaed #OKelections2026

Safety shouldn't be a concern when we drop our kids off at school each day. As state superintendent, I'll continue prioritizing the safety & security of our students and educators. oksenate.gov/press-releases…
