Here We Go Again…More Social Studies at SBOE
The State Board of Education begins three days worth of Social Studies debate today. It will be another long public hearing day, begun with a march by students from the University of Texas campus led by Garrett Mize, march organizer. “I do believe that when students and citizens speak loud enough to say we’re tired of politics in our classroom that the State Board might listen to us.” The Liberty Institute’s Jonathan Seinz advocates for keeping the standards pretty much the same and not including a whole bunch of new names in history books. “We’re going to be helping present that message and make sure that we have a balanced and accurate approach to Social Studies.” The State Board will spend Thursday and Friday debating the new standards and ultimately voting on them.
