Example of Social Emotional Learning in Nearby County+ Local Example Unacceptable
 

Quote from Asra Nomani 

“And now I sit here, listening to these empty proclamations and declarations that you’re making about your great value of Asian Americans,” she said. “Do you know that just a few weeks ago, in social-emotional learning at [Thomas Jefferson High School], our students were told that if they do salsa dancing, it amounts to appropriation and that they needed to check their racism? And that is our mostly minority, mostly Asian students.”

Quote from a Friend
 
At the beginning of the year, my daughter came home from school and said Daddy, I have a new friend. Today (May 2021) she came home and said about that same friend "Daddy, can I go to my black friend's house?"  WAY TO GO LCPS You have made an 8-year-old aware of the color of her friends skin .... CRT and SEL in action
