Florida Bans ‘Indoctrination’ in Teacher Training Programs

Florida Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis has signed a bill into law on May 2 banning "Indoctrination" programs for teachers.

The measure, HB 1291, prohibits programs, courses, and curricula in teacher training from "Distorting" historical events or promoting political ideologies regarding race, sex, and gender.

Teacher preparation, training, and certification programs will not be allowed to teach "Identity politics" or to make claims that systemic racism, sexism, oppression, or white privilege are inherent in America's culture.

At a press briefing and signing ceremony at the VyStar Tower in Jacksonville, Mr. DeSantis said he did not want teacher-preparation programs "To become captive to someone's ideological agenda." "This bill prohibits the indoctrination in teacher preparation," he summarized.

"So, there's not going to be DEI. There's not going to be any of the bogus history. It's just going to be standard, teacher preparation without having an ideological agenda."

What does 'distort' mean? What does 'significant' mean?" Other parts of the legislation, he said, are sound, such as the requirement that training courses for teachers cannot teach students that the United States is built upon racism and is a racist nation.

"There is no disputing the idea that teacher training programs use radical ideas that are being passed on to prospective teachers," Mr. Butcher said.
