What are your children being taught in the Cape Henlopen School District schools?
I’ll confess that I have no children in any Delaware school. However, that doesn’t preclude my interest and concern about the content of the lessons your children and grandchildren are receiving. Ashley Murray is running for the at-large school board position that is currently held by Janis Hanwell. Janis has held this seat since 2016.
After speaking with Ashley and other parents with children currently in Cape schools, I found that schools in the Cape Henlopen School District have been teaching about “white privilege,” “critical race theory” and pushing the “1619 Project” - a “history” that has been labeled a myth by scholars across the country. Ashley Murray is opposed to these radical lessons, and believes that our schools should be fully opened and teaching children to be successful in STEM studies rather than these progressive ideologies that vilify our founding principles.
