    A recent court ruling will impact school funding in Craig County, Oklahoma. The Oklahoma Tax Commission incorrectly distributed over $23 million in motor vehicle tax revenues in 2016, overpaying some districts and underpaying others. As a result of a lawsuit, districts that were underpaid will now receive more funding, while overpaid districts like Ketchum will receive less. Ketchum stands to lose around $16,572 in 2019 due to the ruling. School officials say that while the cuts can be absorbed, ongoing funding uncertainties continue to challenge school district budgets.

    A recent court ruling in favor of eight public


    school districts that received less funding from
    motor vehicle tax distributions in 2016 will

    A coalition of eight school districts that
    were underpaid, led by Sand Springs of
    Tulsa County and Midwest City-Del City of
    Oklahoma County, won a judgment against
    the tax commission, but correcting the im-
    proper tax distributions means that districts
    that were overpaid in 2016 will now get less in
    2019 as a corrective measure.
    In mid-November, Oklahoma County
    District Court Judge Patricia Parrish ordered
    the Oklahoma Tax Commission to withhold
