OK SB1630

School districts and charter schools may count up to 2 days or 12 hours of virtual instruction toward the required 181 days or 1,086 hours of classroom instruction beginning with the 2026-2027 school year, but only during a Governor-declared state of emergency affecting school operations

Districts must submit virtual instruction plans to the Superintendent of Public Instruction by November 1, 2025, for approval by January 31, 2026, with annual reviews required thereafter; plans must address technology infrastructure, IEP student instruction, child nutrition services, and transportation for technology center students

High schools may use 1 day or 6 hours of virtual instruction during statewide 11th-grade assessments if they attest to limited space and staffing for secure test administration, counting toward the 2-day allowance

State Department of Education must publish annual reports by June 30 detailing which districts used virtual instruction, duration, and reasons for school closures

Statewide virtual charter schools and full-time virtual education programs are exempt from these virtual instruction limitations
