THIS IS WHY I KEEP TELLING PEOPLE THAT THE EDUCATION DEEP STATE CAN’T BE REFORMED. If you control who can and can’t become a teacher based on their beliefs, then you control what is put into the minds of children. On the sunny side of things, this will cause more families to #JustWalkAway: Today’s blacklisted American: Minnesota to blacklist all Christians, Jews, or Muslims from teaching.
They’re coming for you next: Minnesota’s unelected education bureaucracy is about to impose new licensing requirements for teachers that will essentially blacklist all Christians, Jews, or Muslims by requiring teachers to teach the queer agenda as well as the critical race theory to young children.
Minnesota’s Professional Educator Licensing and Standards Board (PELSB), a division of the state Department of Education, has been working to change teacher certification requirements since 2019. Its latest public draft, which is finalized save for a few tweaks that don’t affect the content, includes multiple requirements that licensure candidates publicly support critical race theory and transgender ideology and include both in their teaching. Teachers must receive state licensure to be employed in Minnesota public and many private schools. [emphasis mine]
