#AtheistRepublic
The views and opinions expressed here are the commentators' own and do not reflect the official position of Atheist Republic.
Recently, Governor Ron DeSantis launched a Civics Literacy Excellence Initiative (CLEI), which had Floridian teachers voluntarily attend a three-day training session on how to teach students to be "virtuous citizens." Teachers were appalled when they participated in these sessions and found that they were heavily influenced by conservative Christian ideology. This training regiment is a part of Governor Ron DeSantis' $106 million initiative. Upon completion, the teachers will receive a bonus of $3000. DeSantis stated that by the end of the month, about 2,500 teachers would complete the program. The training session focused on clearing up some historical "misconceptions," claiming that the nation's founding fathers did not want a strict separation of church and state. It also downplayed the role of the United States in the history of the slave trade and pushed the Originalism judicial theory that requires people to interpret the Constitution as the framers intended it, not as a living, evolving document. Barbara Segal, a teacher, said, "There was a very strong Christian fundamentalist way toward analyzing different quotes and different documents. That was concerning." An investigation about the initiative has been started by Americans United for Separation of Church and State. The investigation aims "to uncover the extent to which the training sessions were developed by the conservative Christian groups."
