Schools; directing responsibility for content of all instructional materials; requiring adoption of policy for objections to use of specific materials. Effective date. Emergency.
SB 348 requires Oklahoma school districts to adopt written policies governing the selection and use of all classroom instructional materials, including textbooks and digital resources. It gives parents and legal guardians the right to submit written objections to specific materials, triggering a formal review process where school boards must evaluate and potentially remove objectionable content. The bill also updates textbook adoption procedures, mandating that review teams consider specific criteria when selecting materials and requiring school districts to establish clear timelines for handling parental objections. The law takes effect immediately due to an emergency declaration.
