Honesty in Education

Public Education is under attack. After a long and ongoing pandemic experience, school employees in our country are faced with a full-blown moral panic. Far-right activists have cast efforts to build an inclusive society in a conspiratorial light, even dragging LGBTQ+ rights into their efforts to divide our communities and set neighbor against neighbor. Teachers are being intimidated for just teaching their curriculum, and every school employee feels under siege by the culture war waged in America.

But it is our duty as educators to teach the truth, because honesty is the foundation of all over values.
