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.

No. I absolutely oppose Critical Race Theory and all its biased expressions in the schools.
 

Being part of a minority in this country, I believe there are better ways to promote inclusion and equity than blaming others and living in the past.

VDOE should promote better education standards and challenge students to do their best instead of looking at the past and blaming others for their own failures and shortcomings.  Providing real and equal opportunities to all students is the real inclusion and equity that Virginia's schools demand.
