[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course they should discuss the election in school. This is one of the few times that “both sides” or even “all sides” shoulder be discussed equitably. The second part of your comment:[b] the expectation that the teacher know the positions and opinions of each candidate well enough to jump into each conversation between students to provide some sort of definitive commentary is not a reasonable ask. [/b] Perhaps each student could take on the task to research what Youngkin and other candidates have said on record about the issue and present it to the class as part of discussions on election related issues that are important to the students. [/quote] +1 Not only is is unreasonable but I would prefer that the teacher NOT step in and teach only his or her perspective. That is a parent's role.[/quote]
