Oklahoma State Department of Education has launched investigations into 12 school districts after receiving reports that those districts either did not lower their flags or failed to hold a moment of silence to honor the death of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, a spokesperson for the agency said.
State schools Superintendent Ryan Walters, who oversees the agency, ordered all public schools earlier this week to hold a moment of silence for Kirk, but several declined, saying they already hold moments of silence every morning for student reflection.
The list of those being investigated includes six Oklahoma City-area schools — Deer Creek, Edmond, Harding Fine Arts Academy, Moore, Mustang and Norman — as well as four schools in and around Tulsa: Broken Arrow, Glenpool, Owasso and Tulsa, Madison Cercy, a spokeswoman for Walters, wrote in an email to The Oklahoman on Friday, Sept. 19
