New look at 'woke' test facing some incoming Oklahoma teachers

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. (KFOR) Questions on a new ideological test have been revealed for some teachers from New York and California seeking to work in Oklahoma classrooms.

PragerU, a Christian conservative non-accredited group, has partnered with Oklahoma’s State Department of Education.

“I would just caution the department to ensure whatever they’re doing passes legal muster. It seems that we’re on the edge with this right now. And I don’t want to go over that edge,” board member Chris Van Denhende said at last month’s board meeting.

State Superintendent Ryan Walters announced the partnership between PragerU at the meeting and stated the test would soon be available to new teachers entering the program.

The test consists of 34 questions, with many focusing on American history. Most of the first 10 questions, however, pertain to gender.

Examples include:

  • What is the fundamental biological distinction between males and females?
  • How is a child’s biological sex typically identified?
  • Why is the distinction between male and female considered important in areas like sports and privacy?

Additional questions cover topics such as the U.S. Constitution and Martin Luther King Jr.

Those who answer incorrectly are asked to go back and continue selecting answers until they get the correct one.

At the end of the test, there are donation options for PragerU. When it was taken on Friday, the lowest suggested donation amount was $100. But by Saturday, that number had decreased to $50.

affiliate KFOR looked into the legality behind hiring a teacher based on the exam, and a constitutional attorney said state law does not allow for it.

The attorney said such practices would open the Department of Education up to what he called “easy” lawsuits.

KFOR reached out to an OSDE spokesperson weeks ago and submitted an open records request to review the test, but never received a response.
