Summary
The board approved an agreement to use Amira reading‑related services, a state‑recognized resource piloted in the district last year, provided as a free resource under state support; district staff present said the program is recognized by the Oklahoma State Department of Education.
Chickasha Public Schools’ board voted Wednesday to approve an agreement with Amira for reading‑related services that the Oklahoma State Department of Education piloted in some districts last year.

Staff described the service as a free resource recognized by the State Department of Education and answered procedural questions from the board. Superintendent and staff said the district’s curriculum and literacy personnel support the program and that principals and instructional staff will oversee its implementation. Board members recorded an affirmative vote to approve the agreement.
