I hope Gov Youngkin realizes that the race-based education crisis that permeates Virginia Schools goes so very, very far beyond history classes taught according to Critical Race Theory.
Meet Dr. Kendria Boyd. She works in Fairfax County Public Schools as assistant principal who oversees special education. It's difficult to allege she was hired to eliminate white teachers from Edison High School, because attributing motives is always uncertain. But her (publicly available) doctoral thesis from the University of Pittsburgh was a survey of a handful of non-Black teachers which it found, horror of horrors, that they didn't realize that they were utterly incompetent to instruct black students. And since then, she has unleashed a reign of terror, during which more than a third of all non-Black teachers have resigned, reassigned, or driven to disability leave by stress-induced illnesses, caused by students given free rein to abuse, assault and threaten the lives of their teachers.
How could this be possible?
Students with behavioral problems are diagnosed as requiring "special education." Once given that diagnosis, any failure to control the students' behavior is blamed on teacher incompetence, regardless as to whether the student actually has any medical condition which impairs their ability to control violent or sexual impulses. No additional services are provided to teachers whose students have demonstrated by extreme behavior that they cannot such impulses. Union leaders warn teachers that if they turn to the police for protection, their alleged "incompetence" can be used to fire them.
Clicks of teachers exist to spy on other teachers, to provoke students to create conflict, or to lie about lesson content in order to provide the basis for complaints against teachers. Professional Improvement Plans are used not to assist teachers, but as weapons, punishments to add burdens.
Race-based destruction of civilization permeates the entire Fairfax County Public Schools curriculum. No white authors, men or women, are allowed in the literature curriculum, for instance… unless they are gay. And they must be openly gay, so teaching Oscar Wilde is still largely considered a sign of racial oppression. Shakespeare is replaced by the anti-American graphic novel, "Persepolis." Jane Austen is out, the nakedly anti-Christian, "Born a Crime" by Trevor Noah is in. Even showing images of Thomas Edison or George Washington is problematic.
This is not the kind of school which would have seemed to require radical intervention on behalf of black students. Black students make up 25% of the school, which actually has very similar numbers of Hispanic and white students… and about 19% Asian or "other." Black students have been equally likely to pursue advanced courses, and have had a very high graduation rate with a low rate of chronic absence… but this data comes from years before Dr. Boyd arrived.
As the school loses its most difficult-to-replace and most needed teachers, it seems doomed to circle the drain, however. For now, the school uses fear of coronavirus and an imminent violent takeover of the nation by "right-wing fanatics" to displace more reasonable fears such as the effect of terrible education on home values. And since the start of the era of coronavirus, teachers are taught to spot students 50 points on grades, making failure almost impossible. Instead, what students will be getting are diplomas that don't necessarily signify any education.
Virginia's students can't afford employers realizing their diplomas signify nothing. Gov. Youngkin, we hope you understand the enormity of Northern Virginia's race problems.
“No program whether it be critical race theory, severe discipline, well meaning coddling etc.can get these adolescents to mature faster or learn just about anything”

Maybe we should put adults in charge
Racial hatred in your schools are a product the the democrats that started it in 2015 before the Trump Clinton election and the are still pimping it.
The last thing the democrats want are white voters because they don’t take their bait.
They think they can brain wash the black and brown voters into taking their bait some a waking up to the scam.

According to our elites, this happens because the black resents white racial oppression but is too intimidated to lash out at whites. So he lashes out at Asians as substitutes.
The other day, listening to the radio, my Asian wife found out she is a “White Associate’ - not TECHNICALLY “white”, but having essential whiteness due to holding beliefs similar to what allowed white people to oppress the world. [Work hard, Play fair, Care for your children, Plan ahead, etc]
And then, to make it worse, SHE MARRIED A WHITE GUY!
Anybody who bothers to look up the graduation exams from around the turn of the 1900 century can easily conclude that most of our kids of that era came out with the equivalent of a high school education (or better) today. Some public schools would probably survive because they either currently produce a decent product or would improve it enough to survive if they had no choice.
My granddaughter attends a charter school just down the road from a public school for that reason.
In this case it was or violation of civil rights under authority of color.
I don’t think that’s her... unless she doubled in weight since then.
OK, I support Grammar Nazis, but this is getting ridiculous.
included/consisted of: Read the bloody doctoral thesis before you correct its description. Amazingly, it was nothing other than a survey and commentary. No real research involved.
Horror of horrors: A tad colloquial, but perfectly fit for print
Realize vs recognize: From Collins Dictionary: “If you become aware of a fact, don’t say that you `recognize’ it. Say that you realize it.”
handful: No, a sample would suggest some process of selecting representative members of a group occurred. You’re giving Dr. Boyd far too much credit. We’re talking seven haphazardly selected victims, not fifty scientifically screened subjects.
Kamala Harris married a white guy; no sweat (she espouses the proper positions). Yes, the Asians (and increasingly some Hispanics) are “Uncle Toms” for their focus on productivity and strong families (which are not new - or “white” - concepts to them).
The untold truth is that white targets of opportunity are getting scarce for the Simbas in the low-profile race war; they end up tangling with the foreign replacements trafficked here to fill the voids created by fleeing whites. That is why Michael Brown and Eric Garner were messing with Asian-owned stores; the hood has few “white-owned” businesses (or residents) left.
A-ha, therein is the problem facing Republican special prosecutors, etc.: the jury pool is downright psychotic. I don’t mean merely mind-addled, knee-jerk liberals or police-hating former gangstas, like you’d find in New York or Chicago. I mean Washingtonians would rather rip apart their own childrens’ bodies on altars to vengeance demons than be present in the same stadium with someone wearing a red hat.
