February Capitol Days

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

PSO Capitol Day events are in full swing across the country! Families in Colorado, Oklahoma, and Georgia celebrated their school choice option by rallying, writing letters to their legislators, and meeting with lawmakers and legislative staff in-person at their state capitol. Check out the highlights from each event below!

Oklahoma Parents for School Options

Oklahoma Capitol Day 2024 was a huge success! We had a great turnout this year with just under 400 people in attendance at the Oklahoma History Center where families learned about the importance of standing up for their school choice option.

PSO Board Treasurer Wei Barr was the keynote speaker at the event and had a powerful message on courage to share with parents and students. In addition, Sen. Kristen Thompson and Rep. Dick Lowe were presented with Golden Apple Awards in support of all that they have done for educational freedom over the last year.

Families from Insight School had the opportunity to learn about a last-minute bill proposal (HB 3551) which would eliminate online alternative education programs, putting the educational futures of their students in jeopardy. On a positive note, the Senate proposed a bill (SB 1895) that would correct this problem once and for all.

Additionally, all virtual schools in attendance at our Capitol Day encouraged their legislators to support SB1904 which would allow remote testing for online schools to take place in a student’s chosen instructional location.

Thank you to all the families who attended Oklahoma Capitol Day! We will continue to keep you updated on these bills as they through the legislature.
