Lawton Public Schools emphasizes free concurrent enrollment and unveils teacher-intern tuition pathway
Lynn Cordish and Superintendent Heim promoted concurrent enrollment for the spring semester and reiterated that the district covers tuition and fees. "It's free. We buy the books. We pay your fees," Heim said.

Heim and Cordish highlighted students nearing completion of associate degrees while in high school and described a workforce pathway for future educators. "There's a program coming out there that after you graduate, we can put you on as a teacher's an intern and then pay for your college to go on and be a teacher," Heim said, describing a local effort to encourage homegrown teachers.

Cordish said the district already has students who could graduate with an associate degree and encouraged families to consider concurrent classes as equivalent to a high school course offered at Lawton Public Schools.

The podcast did not provide program eligibility criteria, enrollment deadlines, or a formal application timeline. Heim directed listeners to contact the district for enrollment details and noted the district purchases books and covers tuition and fees for participating students.
