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.

Teach What Matters
 

Teachers and schools are expected to teach students material that will equip them to lead productive lives as they approach adulthood.  Training children to look at themselves and others as victims or oppressors destroys their confidence and weakens their academic success.  Do what citizens hire you to do—teach our students how to think, not what to think!  Remove CRT and other cultural division programs from our schools!!
