The Daily Signal - The Rise of ‘Chief Diversity Officers’ at K-12 Schools
Diversity officers slowly are corrupting K-12 education by bringing diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives into schools and teaching children divisive topics such as critical race theory, a Heritage Foundation scholar says.
A new report from Jay Greene, a senior research fellow in education at Heritage, highlights how harmful these diversity officers and their initiatives can be. Worse than simply indoctrinating children, the report says, proposals to increase diversity, equity, and inclusion contribute to a widening achievement gap between advantaged and disadvantaged students.
In some cases, the gaps between advantaged and disadvantaged students can be utterly crippling, he explains.
"So it's easy to understand, this is how many grade levels apart the average white student is from the average black student in that [school] district. That average, by the way, is almost two grade levels," Greene says at one point.
Greene joins "The Daily Signal Podcast" to discuss diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives and how they negatively affect disadvantaged students.
We also cover these stories:
- The Biden administration encourages schools to promote the new COVID-19 vaccine for children.
- The president’s approval ratings are in bad shape, according to a new USA Today/Suffolk University poll.
- America is now open to travelers from Europe, Canada, and Mexico, providing they're fully vaccinated against COVID-19.
