Okay, here is post #1. I thought it applicable because of the “identity checker” on this website that makes you do a math problem. Look up “math is racist” and you will find innumerable links about this absurdity.
The link below is about Florida’s difficulty in finding textbooks that didn’t contain CRT or similar “indoctrinating concepts”. MATH TEXTBOOKS! This is most definitely the case here in Alcona Schools as recently we had a conversation with a parent whose child had a gender-based question in a math problem.

Darn racist “identity checkers”….
This problem of CRT/DEI/SEL indoctrination is SO much bigger and far more invasive & harmful than most people realize. And, the more you dig the more you’ll find that nearly every single institution within our country (and the world to a degree) has been inundated with sometimes subtle and oftentimes blatant identity politics.
Thanks for sharing drbob!

Here is another link for a recent Gallup poll on what we think of our schools. The entire article is very illuminating, but here is a brief excerpt…
“The percentage of Republicans having a great deal or quite a lot of confidence in public schools fell from 34% in 2020 to 20% in 2021 and 14% today. Since 2020, independents’ confidence has declined nine percentage points to 29% and Democrats’ has remained fairly high — currently 43%, versus 48% in 2020.
Today’s 29-point gap between Republican and Democratic confidence in public schools contrasts with an average seven points since the start of Gallup’s Confidence in Institutions trend in 1973. Except for a 25-point gap last year, the previous high was 19 points in 2013, likely related to partisan disagreement over the Common Core educational standards at the time.
Americans’ confidence in public schools is measured as part of Gallup’s annual survey assessing public confidence in a number of national institutions, with the latest updateconducted June 1-20.
Half of Republicans Now Have Little to No Faith in Schools
The extent of Republicans’ displeasure with education today is further evident in the sharp increase in those expressing very little or no confidence in public schools. Half of Republicans are now this critical, up 19 points from 31% in 2019.”I think it is revealing that it isn’t just Republicans who have lost confidence- Both Democrats and Independents are well below 50%.
