Guidance Document Change: In 2021, the Virginia General Assembly passed House Bill 1904 and Senate Bill 1196, and was signed into law by Governor Northam. The law establishes new requirements to support culturally competent educators in the Commonwealth. The Guidance on Cultural Competency Training for Teachers and Other Licensed School Board Employees in Virginia Public Schools was developed for the Board to fulfill the statutory mandate to provide guidance on the minimum standards for the local training requirement.

CRT DIVIDES instead of heals or solves
 

Teaching kids that they should be ashamed of being white is just as wrong as discrimination against kids that are black. Our country was founded on the principles of freedom and equality, and will only continue to be strong as we keep teaching that.  VA parents have spoken loudly that CRT is NOT what they want taught. Liberal ideology deepens the rift between races. It does not heal. Keep it out of of Virginia’s schools.
