[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I want the schools to focus on teaching kids. I don't need the schools to be worried about all things equity. I need them to teach grammar, spelling, science, history, math, and other core subjects. I don't want time devoted to my kids social well being or questions about his thoughts on racism or social justice issues. Focus on academics and stop worrying about how comfortable he is discussing race. [/quote] NP - I would take this point a step further and venture to say that if we focus on academic fundamentals and honing critical thinking skills, students will feel more comfortable venturing into “uncomfortable” subjects like racism and social justice. But they need a strong academic foundation to get there first.[/quote]
