The Texas Tribune
Teachers who spoke to The Texas Tribune worry that a so-called critical race theory law will chill discussions and lessons about social studies and current events, giving students an incomplete and white-centric view of the world.
Educators who spoke to The Texas Tribune overwhelmingly denounced the new social studies law going into effect Sept. 1. These are the provisions they say could cause problems for them and Texas students.
When Texas teachers return to their public or open-enrollment charter school classrooms later this year, a new state law will restrict how they can discuss current events, encourage civic engagement and teach about America’s history of racism.

Now, Pfeiffer is switching to a job in the school system’s central office.
In a letter to Thurgood Marshall parents on Friday, MCPS Chief of Teaching, Learning and Schools Ruschelle Reuben wrote that it would be Pfeiffer’s last day at the school and she will move into a new central office position.
Pfeiffer’s new job will be coordinator of summer programs and tutoring in the Office of Teaching Learning and Schools, MCPS spokeswoman Gboyinde Onijala told Bethesda Beat on Friday. Pfeiffer starts the new job on Monday, with a salary of $119,870, Onijala said.
Asked whether the change in position is related to the controversy over the incident at East Silver Spring or any backlash at Thurgood Marshall Elementary, Onijala declined to comment, calling it a “personnel-related matter.”
