DeSantis wants to keep 'feelz' out of math instruction in Florida schools
2022-04-19
[NYPOST] Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis
...Republican governor of Florida, stone in the shoe of the Dems and their ilk, maybe one-day president...
wants to take feelings out of the equation.

DeSantis on Monday defended his education department’s rejection of math textbooks as part of an effort to eliminate social-emotional learning, a teaching philosophy that helps kids manage their feelings and show empathy for others, from the subject curriculum.

"Math is about getting the right answer. We want kids to learn to think so they get the right answer," DeSantis said at a presser in Jacksonville.

"It’s not about how you feel about the problem or to introduce some of these other things. There’s a right answer and there’s a wrong answer. And we want our students getting the right answer."

DeSantis said objective subjects like math should remain uncluttered by "political" content, such as social-emotional learning and Critical Race Theory

...teaches that skin color is the most important characteristic of any person, which translates to separate but equal with a different bunch in charge. All whites and Asians are born racist and racism permeates every aspect of society, which should be dismantled and the remains turned over to the kind of dipshit who pushes this nonsense...
