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
 

No, No, No!! We do not want CRT in our schools. First of all, teach the truth and the correct history.  Focus on the subjects that are most important.  And teach spelling and handwriting again. Teach life skills, like how to take care of money. Say the Pledge of Allegiance and mean it. Our children don't need to be taught that all of America is a racist country. That one race has suffered the most and is superior to all others. That is not what MLK Jr. would have wanted. The public school system will lose funding because more and more parents will pull their kids out. NO TO CRT!!!!
