Really please name one school system in Va that teaches CRT in any form as part of their curriculum …[/quote]

I'm sure you don't even live in Virginia so you have no objective knowledge about this, just what you heard the racebaiters on MSNBC say last week. According to them the state that unseated the sitting white Attorney General (running for a third term) and replaced him with the Hispanic candidate, as well as electing the first ever black woman Lt Gov is full of white supremacists.

Nobody is saying that there is a CRT 101 course (it would be difficult, considering nobody can clearly articulate what it is anyway), but unless you are truly obtuse (and not just someone whose opinions are second hand ones from cable TV), you will know that education in a school does not just happen in the classroom. Educating children is just as much a part of the school culture which is inculcated in a variety of ways, during extra curricular activities and enrichment events, meetings, clubs, interpersonal relationships, and the way teachers present information. Educators work with curriculum but that is only half the story. The other half is pedagogy, how the curriculum is delivered. This is where parents were concerned. Virginians took a nuanced view of something they felt was not appropriate. That is their right as citizens of a free Republic.

If CRT was so great why are schools like SR backing off from something they embraced so wholeheartedly just last year?

The school never taught it - there were a couple of workshops led by students that were not well recoeved because they were over the top. It is ridiculous to make a bruh ha ha over this …[/quote]

+10000……Just stop with this. My DD was a 2021 graduate. She was extremely active in the affinity clubs, social justice activities and diversity initiatives and they never, ever taught CRT.  I may be giving myself away here, but I live in VA and no schools are teaching CRT in my county either. Just give it a rest. If CRT is keeping families from taking a look at SR, it’s not the place for them anyway and they can get to stepping. SR is not hurting for applicants.[/quote]
