You may have seen this story, since it went viral last night.

District Calls Anniversary Photo of High School Principal and His Wife ‘Questionable' Colleyville Heritage High School Principal James Whitfield says he's fighting back against critics and asks the district to support him. https://www.nbcdfw.com/news/local/carter-in-the-classroom/district-calls-anniversary-photo-of-high-school-principal-and-his-wife-questionable/2704613/

The news reporter intentionally left out key facts and took CHHS principal James Whitfield's word for it that Critical Race Theory is not in the schools, when he himself is leading the implementation.

Grapeive-Colleyville parents in the Dallas-Fort Worth area are organized like those in Southlake, Texas.

Here is the proof there is CRT in our school district, while administrators lie by saying it isn’t.

Please share this link on social media.

Especially share it in response to the article “District Calls Anniversary Photo of High School Principal and His Wife ‘Questionable’”

Thank you.

First clue that there might be an issue: those in academia who refer to themselves (or insist that others refer to them) as Dr.

I’m related to one. It’s disgusting.

Texas law says you must have a doctorate in education to become Superintendent of a school district, and it is preferred in upper admin positions like principal of a school.

So this jack-wagon is dredging up an incident from 2019 to explain people disagreeing with his teaching of CRT type stuff?!?

Honestly, what the heck do these two things have to do with each other?!?

This guy is just trying to create an excuse to defend his teaching of CRT - racists hate me, see what happened in 2019?!?

Get the heck outta here with that crap!

I don’t know why this photo is supposedly reported.
There are two possibilities:
1. He’s lying about being asked to take down a family photo in order to cry victim.
Given that he lied in the interview that CR is not in the school district, that is highly likely.
2. People offended by the sexually explicit books read in last week’s school board meeting and documentation proving CRT is in the school district started going after him. And one did something this petty.

Related issue: the documentation showed Whitfield took teachers from his school to CRT training in 2019, and part of the evidence was his own social media feed bragging about it.
That’s why people likely went that far back and then flagged it, if he isn’t lying about it.

That’s great. There are a lot of people who have doctoral degrees who are not addressed as “Dr.” Academia seems to be one segment of the world where it’s really important.
