Tempers flared Monday night at Tulsa Public Schools’ Board of Education meeting thanks in part to an Instagram post from a long-time vendor.

Among the items on Monday night’s consent agenda was the 2023-24 renewal of the school district’s agreement with City Year. Part of the AmeriCorps program, City Year has partnered with Tulsa Public Schools for a decade to provide tutors and mentors for students at multiple sites throughout the district.

However, a June 15 Instagram post from the organization highlighting nine books featuring LGBTQ+ characters in honor of Pride Month had board member E’Lena Ashley characterizing City Year as “politically charged” and questioning whether the district should continue that partnership.
