Consider This from NPR - What Florida’s Parental Rights in Education Law Means for Teachers
Florida's Parental Rights in Education law, which prohibits classroom instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity for students in kindergarten through third grade, was signed into law at the end of March by Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis.
Critics have dubbed this it the 'Don't Say Gay' law.
A lawsuit has been filed against Gov. DeSantis by several LGBTQ rights advocates in an effort to block the law.
NPR's Melissa Block spoke with a number of teachers across the state of Florida who are worried about the chilling effect this law may have on not just what they teach and speak about in the classroom, but how it affects their students' well-being.
In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment to help you make sense of what's going on in your community.
