Republican push for school curriculum transparency blasted by left as censorship plot
(FOX NEWS) – Democrats and teachers unions are working to block bills proposed in at least a dozen states that would require curriculum transparency in schools across the country, arguing that parents’ access to their children’s learning materials online could lead to undue censorship and backlash against educators.
Parents are entitled under federal law to request their children’s curriculum for review if they attend a federally funded school, but schools are not required to post the materials online. Lawmakers in at least 12 states have introduced legislation to require schools to post lists of all their teaching materials online, including books, articles and videos.
A Missouri bill sponsored by Republican state Rep. Doug Richey would do just that, but Democrats say curriculum transparency bills would only further embolden parents to censor certain materials and trainings, like those pertaining to critical race theory (CRT) – a framework that involves deconstructing aspects of society to discover systemic racism beneath the surface.
Parents are the BOSS > Get used to it !!!! Not Going Away !!!!
Virginia is the PROOF !!!! Parents RULE !!!!! Learn that SCHOOL !!!
Want to crush unions…home school, PAY private tution and issue vouchers…think of the demand for personel private teachers , charter schools, private schools, military, religious. Plenty of options..the public schools can be turn into their real purpose.
Reform schools for the problem kids!!!
DEFUND PUBLIC EDUCATION… ISSUE VOUCHERS!!
Kick out the marxist idealogy. Schools have no business pushing state religion on anyone.
Let a board of teachers,educators, parents set the criteria rules and test requirements. Get out of the way and teach. Just get government out of education.
Hey teacher leave thise kids alone
All in all its just another brick in the wall?
Unions are more like all in all its just another kick in the balls!!
Backlash against educators (first paragraph) Wouldn’t be any issues if they weren’t trying to hide something. Abolish teacher unions and issue vouchers as so many others have suggested.
