LET’S HOPE OTHER STATES FOLLOW: Oklahoma schools chief directs all districts not to comply with Biden’s Title IX overhaul
MUST READ: Solipsism, American Pre-K Style
The problem:
Progressive educators have long understood the importance of public schooling and the concept of the “hidden curriculum” in particular, the implicit messages and lessons a school inculcates. Everything that occurs in a school building communicates a philosophy to students. Who creates the curriculum and which books are chosen or excluded? What behavior is punished or rewarded? What student work or images are displayed throughout the building? Our schools form the philosophy of the next generation without any blue-haired ideologues ever needing to assign Kimerblé Crenshaw or Herbert Marcuse.
What’s on the contemporary hidden curriculum? “Action civics” has replaced history. Young adult fiction has replaced the classics. Student choice has replaced the curriculum. Free reign has replaced discipline. Media literacy has replaced literature.
The solution:
Rebuilding the core curriculum of our schools would provide our students with the guidance that popular culture and many adults refuse to provide. The mere existence of a curriculum implicitly communicates to students that there are things worth knowing, even if it doesn’t immediately interest them, that there are historical figures worth emulating, that the here and now is not all there is, and that there are things worthy of consideration beyond our mere passions and insular interests.

Most recently, a veteran editor resigned from NPR after being suspended without pay for writing an essay that exposed the left-wing bias of the public radio network. Uri Berliner, a 25-year employee, stated, “It’s true NPR has always had a liberal bent, but during most of my tenure here, an open-minded, curious culture prevailed. We were nerdy, but not knee-jerk, activist, or scolding. In recent years, however, that has changed. Today, those who listen to NPR or read its coverage online find something different: the distilled worldview of a very small segment of the U.S. population.”

THE TEACHERS’ UNIONS ARE MORE POLITICAL THAN EVER Ultimately, teachers hold the key. If they stopped paying dues, the unions would cease to exist. Legally, they can now do so courtesy of the Supreme Court’s 2018 Janus decision, which asserted that no teacher or any public employee has to pay a penny to a union as a condition of employment.
They still may advocate for teachers, but politicking is now their main focus.
In the past, teachers’ unions concentrated on fighting to keep all teachers employed—competent or otherwise—laying off teachers by seniority when necessary and soaking taxpayers every chance they could. While those activities are still part of their mission, they have, over time, increasingly delved into the political/social realm, promoting Black Lives Matter, Critical Race Theory, DEI, class warfare, gender-bending, etc. And their current level of engagement is staggering.
