Three education groups are asking the Virginia Board of Education to consider an alternative version of the history and social science standards for K-12 schools. virginiamercury.com/2022/12/20/thr…
ICYMI: VASCD submitted this letter to the Virginia Board of Education in advance of its business meeting today. drive.google.com/file/d/1OpAfaS… #Elevate
@AnneHolton calls the document a "disaster" and the process "disrespectful." She recognizes the omission of MLK day and reference to Indigenous people as immigrants may be mistakes, but in referencing other omissions "it's hard to see how you don't call that white-washing."
VA Standards completely rewritten at the last moment. Replaced by staff from the Governor’s office. It is NOT the original draft. Urge the Virginia Board of Education to reject these rewritten standards upcoming meeting on Nov. 17.
A diverse group of VA educators, historians, professors, museums, parents, & VDOE staff worked collaboratively for 2 years to create revised K-12 history & soc science standards. Gov Younkin's team rewrote them to be more racist & less diverse. See here: docs.google.com/document/d/1eh…
The AHA encourages testimony before the Virginia Board of Education about the state’s social studies standards process. A new version of revised standards would create substantial gaps in the knowledge and historical thinking skills taught to VA students. historians.org/news-and-advoc…
Parents/teachers in VA: the proposed changes to the Social Studies/History standards are highly problematic and we should all be VERY concerned. We need to take action by TOMORROW before the VBOE meets. See this doc for the issues and ways to take action tinyurl.com/VA-SocialStudi…
These new standards are not only alarming, they're also racist, factually-incorrect, + age-inappropriate- and were made without ANY public input. We made a 1-click action for y'all to email the Board of Education to reject @VA_Supt & Youngkin's standards: act.newmode.net/action/hc/stop…
Based on a quick read, it looks like Youngkin's team took out: -Any mention of LGBTQ+ history -Juneteenth -"European imperialism" -"racial conflict" -Cesar Chavez In the new version, Ronald Regan is described as one of several "innovators and heroes" alongside MLK Jr.
Looking at what @GovernorVA deems appropriate in response to the CRT Craze: - Removing MLK from the elementary curriculum - Removing reference to Doug Wilder the first Black Governor, WHO IS STILL ALIVE - Removing reference to John Mercer Langston, first Black VA Congressman 🧵
Here's where you can find the new proposed standards, which the State Board of Education will take up on Thursday: doe.virginia.gov/boe/meetings/2… I'm gonna be out of office for the next couple of weeks but follow @myVPM's @Megan__Pauly for more robust coverage next week.
Youngkin's team at the dept. of education released rewritten history/social science standards. While there's some overlap, it's def different from the one under development for the last two years. E.g. the before/after on how kindergarteners are taught patriotism.
In celebration of Filipino American Heritage Month this October, the AAPI Commission is proud to honor Filipino heritage and the important contributions Filipinos have made in the United States!
A powerful talk by @nhannahjones last night hosted by @LibFriendsARL Thinking about the importance of how we dig into multiple perspectives and narratives for a more accurate view of history and why it is vital to participating in a democratic republic
