Bixby Public Schools Issues Statement After State Superintendent Walters Comments On Finances

Bixby says its most recent audit had no material findings and only one suggestion.

The district also says the district's annual bond rating earned an AA-Stable rating in May. That means the school is financially stable.

Bixby says it refutes Walters' claims, and says he defamed the professionals at the district.

Bixby also says its audits and bond ratings are posted on the district's website.
