Critical race theory will not have a place in any public schools in the Sunshine State.
Governor Ron DeSantis announced on March 17, 2021 that Florida’s curriculum will “expressly exclude…Critical Race Theory.” DeSantis declared,“There’s no room in our classrooms for things like Critical Race Theory. Teaching kids to hate their country and to hate each other is not worth one red cent of taxpayer money.”
In his announcement, DeSantis unveiled a $106 million proposal to promote civics education and civics literacy in public schools.
