Some Croton-Harmon parents and residents have submitted complaints through an "End DEI" portal created to report alleged DEI violations. Our district receives more than $1 million in federal funds.
I got a crazy idea, how about we stop the DEI nonsense and keep getting the million dollars? Let's focus on reading, writing and math. Let's do what is best for our children without labeling them as victims or oppressors. History can be taught without doing that. Anyone who grew up in the 80s and 90s knows it.
A great crazy idea Steve, however it will not be embraced by the radical left in NYS which continues to push DEI, Sanctuary Cities, etc. If doing what is best for our children, why did the teachers union lead the way with the policy of closing schools during the COVID pandemic?
A great point, David. But a little mentioned fact is that the teacher's unions don't represent the children. That is NOT their primary concern. They are the TEACHER'S union and have a fiduciary duty to represent teachers and THEIR interests. Those interests don't always align with the interests of the children. We should never forget this or assume that they are even considering the children.
