Trump cracks down on ‘woke’ schools, banning critical race theory and gender ideology while reviving ‘patriotic’ curriculum

President Donald Trump's January 2025 executive order targets radical ideologies in US K-12 schools, focusing on ending indoctrination and promoting patriotic education. The order seeks to eliminate federal funding for schools promoting divisive ideologies, protect parental rights, and reinstate the 1776 Commission to foster American values in classrooms. The move is a significant shift in US education policy, aiming to restore national unity and pride while ensuring transparency and accountability in school curriculums.
