ALL TRUETFULL HISTORY SHOULD we taught. The good, the bad, and the ugly.

Kevin Nik Myles Hayward

All factual history should be included in the teaching of history. Unlike the 1619 project, the exclusion Claus is a part of true history. If you don't learn from history you are doomed to repeat it.

John Hargrove

History is history and it should be taught accurately, not spun by either the right or the left.

Dianne Price

ALL the history of , any state, should be taught!

SunnySunshinestein

Teach it all, hiding from the truth only serves to make things worse.

Alma

Well, it's history isn't it? Of course they should read it. The 1859 charter that made Oregon a state says Oregon is to be a white's only state, and the age of consent is 10 years old.

Jer W

Yes, but it shouldn't be the primary focus of the entire curriculum. Keep it in context and teach the historical facts.

Geraldine Boldman Goodson

It's history and you shouldn't only teach part of history

This is just more Critical Race Theory meant to divide races and teach that whites are the problem. CTR is a hateful teaching that causes more racism. Teaching the past racism doesn't serve any purpose. It's time to move on and stop dwelling on it.

There's a big difference between teaching history and teaching others to hate using history.

Latterdaysaint

I agree

SunnySunshinestein

Ummm...many whites HAVE been a problem and continued to be for generations. Pretending otherwise hasn't made things better, has it?

Byron Buck

By that ridiculous logic we shouldn’t teach any history because it’s all in the past. It’s real history and if it makes you uncomfortable that’s your problem.

This is just more critical race theory

Many of my students display addictive behaviors regarding their phones, and it has proven detrimental to their learning and social development. Any positive of cell phone use is vastly outweighed by negative consequences.

Sam Davis

Long overdue. Students need to focus on being educated in school, not watching videos, playing games, & chatting with each other. Educators and others do not need the distraction that cell cause. If there are emergencies that students need to know about there are other ways for them to find out.

Kids are way too addicted to their phones and it is affecting their learning. Phones could be kept in a basket in the classroom in case of emergency, but definitely NOT with the kid.

David Kline

My teaching friends say it's been a battle to keep kids off their phones in class and wastes a bunch of class time time addressing this. How will this be enforced any differently though?

Kimmy Wasatch

Between cell phone usage and lower graduating standards, OR is failing students
