ROPE 2.0 seeks to equip parents with the information necessary to best champion their individual child’s educational needs and support legislation that empowers parents as the primary authority for their children. Begun as Restore Oklahoma Public Education in 2010, ROPE has spent over five years researching, writing and lobbying on issues relating to public education at the local and state levels within Oklahoma and nationally. ROPE's early concern over Common Core put them in the forefront of the fight against this, micromanaged, one size fits all, curricula better suited to creating automatons than children. In 2014, after 4 years of concentrated effort, Oklahoma passed HB3399, outlawing Common Core in Oklahoma. Today, ROPE 2.0 focuses on four areas, each led by a separate director; Education, Legislation, Politics and Parental Rights. You can contact each director through her email as follows: Jenni White, Education Director - Jenni@rope2.org Lynn Habluetzel, Legislative Director - Lynn@rope2.org Julia Seay, Political Director - Julia@rope2.org Tracey Montgomery, Parental Rights Liason - parentalrightsok@gmail.com
