Optional for Teachers
 

If teachers feel the need to have cultural training, it should be left up to them to seek this out for themselves and for their own professional development. Making this a requirement for licensure and renewal is unnecessary. It will also add to the booming Mandate economy due to covid and CRT. If we as a people have learned anything these past two years it's that Mandates and forcing people to do something enmass doesn't work.
