Critical Race Theory (CRT) inhibits unity by segregating students into groups based on race and skin color. CRT advocates assigning levels of “privilege” and “oppression” to individuals/students; therefore, creating animosity from the perceived oppressors, and a false sense of entitlement from the oppressed. This is a divisive ideology and separates our community. 

In the Tredyffrin/Easttown School District, we are seeing this evolve through the controversial training provided by the Pacific Education Group (PEG) and the Southern Poverty Law Center. Please see the linked article on PEG https://thenewamerican.com/peg-in-schools-teaching-white-privilege-and-marxism-for-millions-in-tax-money/?fbclid=IwAR0gjzhP93dmTLVA3w-5L3uVcDMuSC4hdlnyIUCyv68_7O2rsGsbBQVBAj0 from 2017. The Conestoga high school students took a white privilege survey in the spring of 2020, questions should be asked where does this survey go and what are they doing with the results, https://goodbysilverstein.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_8IZndoc6CRXUisl?Q_R=R_3FJcVwE8874oQS1&fbclid=IwAR2WNuB6_eir_absO9LMw23ASUCCfZnHeNUuli6U7wYbH334gqnjC27nwZo

T/E has spent over 350k on PEG including training teachers. Teachers had training on 5/18/2021 regarding white privilege and how to discuss this with children. 

We are petitioning The Tredyffrin/Easttown Board of School Directors to disavow any curriculum (i.e. Critical Race Theory) that promotes the aforementioned.  We seek actual justice for all students, not just the chosen few. All races, all people, all children. It is our belief that this Critical Race Theory is misguided racial hatred and we seek to replace this curriculum with one that gives all children the opportunity to freely advance and progress in life without the titles of racist and victim.
