Oklahoma Teacher Accused of Abuse Amid Promises of an 'Epic' Year

Yolanda Dunbar, a special education teacher in Oklahoma, is facing serious allegations as she stands trial in Choctaw County District Court on two counts of child abuse. The charges have raised significant concerns within the community, particularly among parents and educators who had high hopes for the school year. Dunbar had previously promised an "EPIC" year for her students, which has now taken a troubling turn.

Her attorney has publicly stated that Dunbar is innocent of the allegations, asserting that the claims against her are unfounded. The case has garnered attention, as it highlights the challenges faced by educators in special education and the trust placed in them by families. As the trial unfolds, the community is left to grapple with the implications of these allegations on both the students involved and the broader educational environment. The outcome of this case could have lasting effects on Dunbar's career and the school district as a whole.
