Campaign Platform
Dr. Cox’s campaign pillars center on four conservative, values-driven priorities:
Safe & Secure Schools
Every child deserves a safe learning environment – free from intruders, harmful influences, and inappropriate content. Dr. Cox will make safety the foundation of education so parents can send their children to school with confidence.
Academic Achievement
Oklahoma kids aren’t 50th, and neither are our teachers. By strengthening phonics, math foundations, and growth-based testing, and ensuring parent-driven IEPs for special needs students, Dr. Cox will move our schools into the Top 25 and give every child the future they deserve.
Restoring Trust in Public Education
Parents should be partners, not outsiders. Dr. Cox will restore transparency, stability, and accountability to public education, rebuilding confidence in Oklahoma’s schools.
Support for Teachers
Teachers are professionals, not test administrators. Dr. Cox will cut bureaucracy, invest in training, empower educators to teach again, and restore respect to the profession.
About Dr. Cox
When I think about the future of my grandkids – and the 700,000 Oklahoma kids just like them – I know we must do better. As State Superintendent, I will work every day to ensure safe schools, strong academics, and restored trust. This is how we’ll Make Education Great Again!
