Oklahoma Constitution; candidate requirements for office of Superintendent of Public Instruction; ballot title; filing.
This bill proposes a constitutional amendment requiring future candidates for Oklahoma Superintendent of Public Instruction to have public school administrator certification and at least five years of experience as a school principal or superintendent, in addition to existing age and residency requirements. It directly affects individuals seeking this education leadership role starting with the 2030 general election. The amendment would apply only to candidates running for the office beginning in 2030 and every election after, not immediately. The resolution also establishes the ballot title for voter approval of this constitutional change.
