Walters says he's fired 130 people, but public documents say otherwise

State schools Superintendent Ryan Walters falsely claimed on Thursday he has fired 130 people from the Oklahoma State Department of Education since he took office in January 2023.

Following a regular monthly meeting of the State Board of Education, Walters took questions from education reporters for the first time in about two months. He was asked about possibly losing out on federal education funding because he’s encouraged Oklahoma school districts to defy the federal government’s new Title IX guidelines, which say discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity now is covered under the law’s anti-discrimination provisions.

Walters said he rejected the premise of the question after first saying, “We have saved taxpayers a tremendous amount of money by firing 130 staffers.”

-------

The Oklahoman has obtained resignation letters for Cleveland, Ferguson and Thomas, along with resignation or retirement notices for 57 other former agency employees who have left since July. None of them indicated in those public documents they were fired. The agency has not released the public documents despite multiple requests by multiple media outlets under the Oklahoma Open Records Act.
