Fallin, Hofmeister Outline Agenda For OK Education

From the Fallin campaign this week…
Mary Fallin and Joy Hofmeister: Fighting for Stronger Schools and a Better Education for Our Children

Governor Mary Fallin and candidate for Superintendent of Public Instruction Joy Hofmeister are working together on an agenda to strengthen Oklahoma public schools and produce better outcomes for Oklahoma students. Mary and Joy know the path forward requires:

• A commitment to producing strong, Oklahoma-based academic standards to replace Common Core
• Supporting our teachers by getting more funding for K-12 education
• Focusing on accountability in spending – additional funds need to go to the classroom!

“Joy Hofmeister is a teacher, small business owner and a mother who cares deeply about public education in Oklahoma, which is why I was proud to appoint her to the Oklahoma State Board of Education. I know Joy will work tirelessly to unite parents, teachers, employers and lawmakers as we work to support and improve our schools. I am proud to support her in her race for superintendent.” – Governor Mary Fallin

“Governor Fallin has always said that improving education is the most important thing we can do to support the long term growth and prosperity of our state. She should be applauded for highlighting the importance of public education, not just in the individual growth of our students, but for Oklahoma’s long term economic well-being. I encourage Oklahomans to get behind Governor Fallin to ensure we have a pro-education governor for the next four years.” – Joy Hofmeister
