Yes, absolutely! I'm a public school teacher in OKC and this year the admins have heavily encouraged us to make use of donorschoose.org to request items we need for the classroom.

Here's a link to current projects that teachers in OKCPS are requesting: https://www.donorschoose.org/donors/search.html?state=OK&cit...

I haven't used the site yet, but know of several teachers who were able to purchase things for their classroom (computers, instruments, etc) that they wouldn't have been able to afford otherwise thanks to people asking questions like yours!

Thanks -- took a look and donated to a couple of projects. It seems like most of the schools represented are in the urban areas though...from the original article it appears that Oklahoma City is still mostly doing well. How is the school district faring in general?
