SB758

Oklahoma SB758 sets conditions for virtual instruction to count toward required instructional hours and days.

Oklahoma SB758 amends school instruction requirements to allow virtual instruction under specific conditions. It defines "virtual instruction" as using the internet or other digital systems for teaching. The bill permits school districts and charter schools to include emergency virtual days for reasons like inclement weather or staff illness. It mandates that virtual instruction must consist of a certain number of hours of synchronous instruction. If less than a majority of students comply with these minimum hours, the school must provide an additional day of in-person instruction.
