The social justice standards from @splcenter that were pulled from Francis Howell School District in Missouri:
@blythebernhard @splcenter I feel like these would ignite some fascinating classroom conversations!
@blythebernhard @splcenter I’m curious as to why they were pulled from the beginning as there was no real reason from Francis Howell, unless the MO Dept. of Education stepped in and said they could not do it. I think the standards are really good & they should be adopted by every school in the state.
@blythebernhard @splcenter If one reads them, it’s clear why the Board did not want them. It’s also clear what they expect Black students to give up. I also understand why the curriculum writers made a sacrifice of these standards to keep an important course, even at this cost.
