State Board of Education

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 Was Designed to Divide Us

Critical Race Theory (and all deceptive variations of the term) was founded on Marxist principles and should never be used to indoctrinate children. It is racist, divisive, and DESIGNED TO PIT CHILDREN AND TEACHERS AGAINST EACH OTHER! It not only violates the Civil Rights Act, it teaches hatred and intentionally damages the developing psyches of future generations. Virginians do not support CRT and will not tolerate it in our schools.
