State Board of Education Approves Rules for A-F School Grading System

(Oklahoma State Capitol) The Oklahoma State Board of Education last week approved permanent administrative rules for the A-F School Grading System. 

The system was voted into law last year. The rules give guidance to districts to implement the specifics of the law. 


The A-F system gives parents and community members the ability to see school performance as a clear-cut A through F letter grade. The State Department of Education anticipates releasing the first letter grades for school performance across the state before the beginning of the next school year, in August. 


The adopted rules are posted on the State Department of Education’s website, http://ok.gov/sde/education-law-book.
