NINE WESTCHESTER SCHOOL DISTRICTS PLACED ON TURNING POINT USA’S “MOST RADICAL” FOR TEACHING DEI---CROTON MAKES THE LIST

NINE WESTCHESTER SCHOOL DISTRICTS PLACED ON TURNING POINT USA’S “MOST RADICAL” FOR TEACHING DEI..

1/26/2023---THE FOLLOWING ARTICLE APPEARS IN THE YOKERS TIMES:

The debate and discussion over the teaching of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, DEI, in Westchester public schools continues. Last year a Somers High school teacher was suspended, for having her students read the book Me and White Supremacy, by Layla Saad, and have her students explore their own white privilege and fragility.

The 10th grade English teacher, Allison Ferrier, was briefly suspended for using an unauthorized book in class. But after a few days, Ferrier was brought back after Somers Superintendent Raymond Blanche said that the book was not banned to be used in the classroom. A school board meeting during Ferrier’s suspension had parents and students coming out in support of her return.

Now the national Conservative group Turning Point USA has created a School Board Watchlist of districts that are “teaching racialization in the classroom.” On their list are nine Westchester school districts, including Somers, and Croton, Irvington, Mamaroneck, Mt. Vernon, New Rochelle, White Plains, Yonkers, and Yorktown.

Turning Point explains that the “School Board Watchlist (SBWL) is America’s only national grassroots initiative dedicated to protecting our children by exposing radical and false ideologies endorsed by school boards and pushed in the classroom. SBWL finds and exposes school board leadership that supports anti-American, radical, hateful, immoral, and racist teachings in their districts, such as Critical Race Theory, the 1619 Project, sexual/gender ideology, and more.
