SEL is a disgrace to our society
 

I have seen SEL at work in our VA public schools this year. It is already distracting our children's ability to learn and is harming relationships. With shortened school weeks and distance learning, the last thing students need is even more time taken away from the only purpose that public education exists; the teaching of reading, writing math, accurate history and science. If you will not stick to your core responsibilities, then the public no longer has need of your services and we will find far more effective and efficient ways to educate our children. We also don't need you attempting to undermine the core concept of families and associated morals and values with your twisted and racist ideology. What happened to no religion in schools? SEL/CRT is essentially a secular religion with nothing but ill will toward the general public. Requiring SEL for graduation is absolutely vile and needs to be removed from public school curriculum immediately!!
