[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think I should have to move to Maryland to ensure my kids receive an accurate education that isn't whitewashed.

I'll stay in VA, thanks, and vote for someone better. Maybe you would be more comfortable in Florida. [/quote]

They'll vote for these new standards.  Virginia needs a social studies standard, this is it.  They'll make two or three little changes and this is what students will get for next 6-7 years.

What a relief.[/quote]

Anything this board does can be undone by the next board. By the time this gets put in a form that can be disseminated to counties, it'll be repealed. [/quote]

Okay Mitch McConnell, it will be repealed just like the Affordable Care Act.

The VDOE is currently 5-4 R, and 3 of the Ds are done in June 2023. Will soon be 8-1 R.

The new standards will be effective for 2024-2025 school year, with flexibility to implement at start of 2025 school year. Youngkin is in office until 2026 with control over the VDOE until even longer.  Plus, schools will have already bought resources for all of the new standards.

They'll be revised again in 2029, to be implemented in 2031. [/quote]
