YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIn Indiana, elementary school parents received a letter giving them the option to opt out of Black History Month lessons.
TAKE LETTER FS
Sprunica Elementary School counselor Benjamin White sent this letter home giving parents the choice to pull their kids out of class for the black history lessons.
The letter went viral on social media. Here's how the superintendent of the school district responded on Twitter:
"Earlier this week a letter, unauthorized by Brown County Schools, was released to elementary school families erroneously advising our students and parents that they could "opt-out" of certain instruction regarding Black History Month."
To be clear, our District does not permit students to opt-out of history lessons--including ones based on historical injustices."We apologize for the confusion caused by the letter and offer our assurances that Brown County Schools is committed to providing an inclusive educational environment for all students and families."
At least three anti-critical race theory laws are set to be passed in Indiana.
