California backtracks on woke math curriculum overhaul after stern opposition
Fox News
California is set to push back implementing an overhaul of its mathematics curriculum after opponents argued the plan needlessly inserts politics into lessons.
The California board is slated to postpone implementing its proposed Mathematics Curriculum Framework during a Wednesday meeting, pushing final action on the curriculum to May 2022, according to the board’s agenda for this month. The move comes after hundreds of former and current professionals working in science, math, and engineering fields, as well as educators and venture capitalists, signed an open letter denouncing the plan as one that will "de-mathematize math" and instead insert "environmental and social justice" teachings into curriculum.More Related News
