They're teaching times tables, not Critical Race Theory

This week: A bogus witch hunt in public education. The Governor ended his McGirt panel due to protesters. Power struggle in Western Heights school district. A former Cherokee chief will be featured on the quarter.

Episode outline:

• The State Board of Education adopted rules following passage of HB1775. 
• Western Heights school district fired superintendent, appointed a new one, then SBE said no and appointed their own, THEN this week Western Heights said no to the state and again appointed their own.
• We mentioned in our last episode that Governor Stitt was going to hold a “community impact panel” this week about the McGirt ruling. Well, he did...but it did not go well for him.
• On a related note, the FBI anticipates 7500 new cases in federal court next year as a result of the McGirt ruling 
• The board of Epic Charter Schools shared information about why they distanced themselves from the founders, and it’s kind of fascinating. 
• Let’s end on a good note: the US Mint announced the designs for the new quarters featuring Cherokee Nation Chief Wilma Mankiller that will be released next year.
