KS Board of Education: critical race theory is misunderstood and not in state standards Katie Bernard, The Kansas City Star
Jul. 14 TOPEKA Critical race theory is not in Kansas educational standards and some critics conflate it with educational equity, the Kansas Board of Education said in a statement Wednesday.
The board voted unanimously to issue a statement clarifying its position as GOP officials and politicians call for state and local policies banning what they regard as critical race theory from the classroom. Just as we teach our students to be judicious consumers of information, we encourage all Kansans to educate themselves on what critical race theory is and what it isn t, the statement said.
