Republican state lawmakers across the U.S. want to require schools to post all course materials online so parents can review them, part of a broader national push by the GOP for a sweeping parents bill of rights ahead of the midterm congressional elections.
After parents pushed back on COVID-19 policies, they discovered California school administrators were cracking down on formerly-allowed mesh masks, punishing students for behavior teachers are allowed to do.
Californians who are vaccinated will no longer have to wear masks inside come February 15, however the new rule will not include students and faculty at K-12 schools.
A school in Washington, DC has provoked controversy online by posting a video of its kindergarten students marching with ‘Black Lives Matter’ signs and chanting slogans in support of the cause.
