Derby school board rejects social studies curriculum
The Derby Kansas district voted down a proposed Houghton Mifflin Harcourt social studies curriculum for Derby High School citing perceived bias against Donald Trump. Conservatives on the board objected to omissions and to a 2020 MHFH statement on Black Lives Matter, while teachers favored the Writable program to boost critical thinking.
