Friend,

One of Donald Trump’s latest Executive Orders is a direct attack on the
freedom of students to learn in safe and inclusive schools. Going after
transgender students, inclusive education that provides insights into the
history and experiences of people of diverse backgrounds, and seeking to
take away teachers’ ability to provide comprehensive instruction on a
variety of topics, this Executive Order is just the latest way to impose a
radically extreme agenda on our schools. But this Order is just about
stoking fear: it legally cannot require school districts to change their
curricula.

[ [link removed] ]Send a letter to your school administrative officials letting them know
that these Executive Orders do not require changes to school or district
policy! >>

When you click on that link, you’ll find a document with language about
how the Executive Orders do not require any policy change at the district
level. We want to share guidance with school leaders so that they feel
empowered to continue protecting ALL our students.

When you open the document, you can copy and paste the text into an email
to your school district officials. There are places in the email copy to
include the name of the school you’re writing about and information about
a student close to you, if you’d like. Please feel free to add your
personal perspective to what you send — your decisionmakers want to hear
from YOU. You can send this email to your district’s superintendent, your
school board, and/or a principal of a student close to you.

Together, we can fight for just and inclusive schools, even – and
especially because of – efforts like these to shut us out of decisions
about how our children are educated. Executive Orders, like this one, are
a wish list from the President, and this Order will be challenged in the
courts. Education policy remains directed by your state.

Thank you for your advocacy on this topic. Please stay tuned for more ways
to resist policies coming from this new extremist administration.
