Different age requirements arenβt needed because military kids are behind β theyβre needed because Oklahomaβs system refuses to recognize academic readiness over birthdate. Could support with amendments.

No minor child shall be admitted to any public school operating in this state unless and until an application for free or reduced-price meals under the National School Lunch Act is completed by the child's parent or legal guardian and returned to the applicable school district OR the OPT OUT FORM.
HB 3032 conditions access to public education on completion of a federal data-collection instrument, aligning directly with workforce-development and longitudinal tracking systems rather than academic improvement or parental rights.
This is not about feeding children β it is about guaranteeing 100% data capture...Use access to services to force participation in data systems.A real opt-out would mean: No form, no data, no condition on enrollment.

π Details π View Bill on Legislature Website
Amends regarding standardized subject matter standards, graduation requirements, establishing set curriculum of 23 units for all 8-12 grade students.
HB 3021 looks less like education reform and more like lowering the bar to meet labor shortages, which ultimately shortchanges students and families.
Aligns with a workforce agenda by lowering and reshaping graduation requirements through waivers and alternative diplomas, prioritizing labor needs over consistent academic standards and long-term student readiness.
