Rochester Public Schools, community members deny notion that critical race theory is being taught in schools
ROCHESTER, Minn. (FOX47) The group of demonstrators who showed up to Tuesday’s Rochester Public Schools (RPS) Board meeting demanded Rochester schools not teach critical race theory.
“It’s not part of the Minnesota standards. We’re not teaching it now, we don’t plan to teach it, it’s not appropriate for K-12 education. So, it was confusing the level of anger,” said RPS President Jean Marvin.
Marvin says there is a misunderstanding, and the goal is to educate all children by providing them with the proper information.
