<p class="MsoNormal">Welcome to the new school year. We are excited to be serving the teachers and students of Oklahoma again for SY2013-2014. This year we have allotted 48,000 seats to districts across Oklahoma; however, based on the success of last year
we have had over 92,000 requests for seats. A step to solve this problem, Think Through Math has worked with the OK Department of Education to help schools purchase any incremental seats that may be needed. Here is how it works:<o:p></o:p></p>
