September 25, 2025 - 05:00

OKLAHOMA CITY — The former secretary of Oklahoma’s top school board is pursuing $100,000 from the state Department of Education, claiming her termination was unjust. Amy London alleges that she was wrongfully dismissed after raising concerns about interference from department staff regarding her job responsibilities.

London's dismissal occurred on July 17, and she has initiated the process of filing a lawsuit against the agency. In her complaint, she asserts that her termination was a direct response to her complaints, which she believes undermined her ability to perform her duties effectively.

The situation has sparked discussions about workplace rights and the importance of addressing grievances within state agencies. As London moves forward with her legal actions, the case may shed light on the protocols governing employee conduct and the responsibilities of state departments in handling complaints. The outcome could have implications for future cases involving workplace disputes within the education sector in Oklahoma.
