Oklahoma 's Superintendent of Public Instruction Ryan Walters can revoke teaching certificates through his control of the Oklahoma Board of Education .

Critics say Walters has made Board meetings into a “political circus” for his own gain.

The minute a progressive teacher makes a misstep, Walters pounces at the chance to revoke their license.

Walters launched an investigation into teacher Boismier and teacher Tyler Wrynn after they were flagged by right-wing operatives for their LGBTQ advocacy.

Walters also attempted to revoke the license of Jeff Myers , a football coach who allegedly organized a fight club among his players, beat them with a wet towel and looked the other way when players sexually assaulted their teammates.

On Feb. 22 , a hearing officer referred to a teacher accused of molesting Mason Mecklenburg .

On June 27 , Myers ’ teaching certificate was suspended.

His alleged victim, Sheena Martin , has gone public at school board meetings and on social media with allegations of grooming, molestation, and rape against him.

In January , Walters announced OSDE would be more aggressive in getting sexual predators out of schools.
