Episode 110 -- InvestED

It was a busy week in legislative news, as the state board of education approved Superintendent Joy Hofmeister's proposed budget that would include a $5,000 raise for teachers and $66 million in additional funds for school districts for counselors and support staff. Ivy Riggs joins the show to break it all down. We are also joined by Vicki Behenna, candidate for Oklahoma County District Attorney. Behenna was on the team of lawyers to help convict Timothy McVeigh and has been the head of the Oklahoma Innocence Project for the last eight years. She shares her lifelong love of Oklahoma public education and the importance of a community meeting all children's needs at an early stage.
