Oklahoma school districts disciplined after allegedly violating Critical Race Theory ban

The Oklahoma State Board of Education disciplined two school districts for violating a new law that prevents Critical Race Theory, from being taught in the public school system last week.

The board held a meeting on Thursday, where they determined both Tulsa Public Schools and Mustang Public Schools violated House Bill (HB) 1775 in separate incidents last year. They subsequently voted to give both school districts an "accreditation with warning," FOX 25 in Oklahoma City reported.

The warning is the third of the education board’s five-step accreditation tiers. It requires the districts to show they have made the required changes to re-meet the board's standards.

HB 1775 recommends disciplinary action for potential violators of "accreditation with deficiencies," the second step. However, the board voted to increase the penalty, FOX 25 reported.............

Good. Teachers below college level do not have academic freedom. They have no right to teach outside the curriculum, and unions have no right to dictate what kids learn either.

Topics like race and gender are outside the scope of their duties. If there are issues that arise, it should be dealt with by the administration or school board, not teachers creating the problem by indoctrinating students.

My aunt and uncle were school teachers. Yes, it's been a while and they have retired, but they stated that the primary focus of the 'school board' was to teach the students the information necessary to pass the FL standardized tests. Consequently, that cut into the time for them to being able to focus on more of the curriculum that should have been taught and individual time with each student.

Now on top of that teachers have to deal with gender, race, and other special political crappola.  So what are students actually being taught these days other than being brainwashed with liberal ideology?

Let the teachers teach for crying out loud; Spelling, English, Math, History, Science, and the arts.
