Parents Take Charge of School Curriculum | Salt Lake City News

Parents are being urged to take a more active role in shaping how schools teach about 9/11, with the Education Freedom Foundation arguing that some lessons may overemphasize Islamophobia rather than focusing on the facts and national response. Inspired by a recent Supreme Court ruling that sided with parents in a Maryland school district’s opt-out dispute over LGBTQ-themed books, the foundation sees this as a major victory for parental rights. They’re encouraging families to formally request curriculum materials, review their child’s academic records, and even request exclusion from specific lessons — all while teaming up with other parents to share the responsibility. The message is clear: if parents don’t step in, no one will — and it’s time to be proactive in what your kids are learning, especially on sensitive topics.
