The Oklahoma Department of Career and Technology Education awarded more than $3.14 million in lottery funds to K-12 schools and technology centers in two rounds of grants for fiscal year 2026.
Oklahoma CareerTech moved to awarding the grants in the current fiscal year rather than after the fiscal year ended, so that schools and tech centers can receive funds earlier, said Cori Gray, director of student success. The change allows schools and tech centers to invest in innovative equipment for the FY26 school year, she explained.
Seventeen tech centers received $819,190.88 in the second round, while 87 K-12 schools received $1,593,551.97.
