School boards put political agendas over students' education

From Denver, Colorado, to Loudoun County, Virginia, people are fed up with their school boards. They have reason to be. Parents everywhere feel like they aren’t being heard. School boards are detached from the communities they serve and focused on political or self-interested agendas over their students’ well-being.

Many protests focus on efforts to incorporate critical race theory into teacher trainings and student curriculums. The Biden administration is even pressing a grant-giving program to encourage districts to introduce the CRT-based 1619 Project into curricula.
