Oklahoma Plans to Test Out-of-State Teachers for Wokeness
The Oklahoma education department has approved the plans to force California or New York teachers to take an ideology test to make sure they are not too “awake” before hiring them.
The test was created by the Prager University of the right -wing reflection group, which recently made the headlines to develop educational material that minimizes American slavery. He presents 50 questions about government, sex and religion. The Department of Education has published five examples of exam questions, in particular: “What are the first three words of the Constitution?” And a question about The biological differences between men and women.
California and New York teachers have been informed that they will not be accepted without completing the test.
“We are not bringing in the Indoctrinators awakened in the classroom,” said Oklahoma’s public education superintendent Ryan Walters. “It is a very first approach in America.”
Walters hopes to publish the “soon” exam. He also prevented the members of the board of directors from consulting the exam before the potential teachers received it.
The president of the Oklahoma Education Association, CARI ENDGE, said USA today That she believes that this decision will only exacerbate the shortage of teachers from the Oklahoma public school. The state teachers’ union wrote in a letter that Walters “does not have the legal power to examine certified teachers according to political ideology”.
Walters has already made the headlines for trying to force Trump Bible and prayer in classrooms, looking at pornography at a meeting of the school board, and inviting ice cream to make children of their condition while they were at school.
In short, he seems to be a faithful soldier of Maga who has an alarming quantity of power on the teachers and students of Oklahoma, and this test only reaffirms this.
