With the Oklahoma legislature preparing the final text of a school choice funding formula, SoonerPolitics undertook the task of compiling a couple of interactive maps, indicating the established private schools across the state. Some of this institutions are accredited by the Oklahoma Private School Accreditation Commission(OPSAC), but several dozens are decidedly not accredited, even though some are over 125 years old. 
 Current legislation provides families an advance tax credit between $5000 to $7500 per year for OPSAC accredited schools. 
If a family chooses a non-accredited education by 'other means' to educate their child, the tax credit drops severely. Perhaps just half the tax credit, and only after providing actual receipts. The current senate bill could drop the credit to a few hundred dollars, because of a household cap on credits.

  The era of forced public schooling is over. The behemoth system which dominates the spending of our state taxes, will soon have to earn the continued patronage of Oklahoma families. 
  Currently, public schools spend about $10,000 per year, per child enrolled in a school district.
 The Oklahoma legislature is now poised to return the common education choices back to parents, by allowing them to direct thousands of dollars of their child's portion of state education spending toward a private education institution.
  Even homeschool expenses will qualify for modest reimbursement, in a timely manner.
​  The net result will be a massive competition between private sector educating, and the statewide network of 500+ public school districts.
