It figures that Leftists here are not in favor of this.
God forbid the history of the greatest country on the planet is taught.
Oops I used the word “God”, that should set them off as well.
How about we set up some re-education camps?

Hey ATS!
Today we have more good news related to wiping out marxism and far-left/woke propaganda, following the ban of the critical race theory. **
Trump announced he'd sign an EO to promote patriotism in schools.

I am pleased to announce that I will soon sign an executive order establishing a national commission to promote patriotic education. It will be called the 1776 commission.
It will encourage the educators to teach our children about the miracle of American history and make plans to honor the 250th anniversary of our founding.
President @realDonaldTrump signs an executive order to promote patriotic education!

We don't have such problems here but I'm happy for you after what I've seen coming out of western schools. I hope education will be made great again and it won't be indoctrination anymore.
**Edit: What I mean by that is I'd like to see more objectivity from teachers and less biased lessons rather than with a far-left agenda. I don't support forced patriotic propaganda (like the North Korean model) and I have expectations from Trump and other people in charge not to turn lectures into that, but to focus more on the positive aspects and American pride instead of creating generations of self-hating Americans.

Outstanding!
I'd like to see it go back to the way it was when I was in school in the 80's and 90's. Learn about how great America is and was, and absolutely no personal opinion from the teachers regardless of which side they stand on. When I was a student, teachers were mature, responsible, and most were seen as a third parental figure. We also learned grammar and spelling and proper ways to speak.

"Patriots" exscuse state sponsored propaganda on ATS?
***pikachu shocked face***
Let me sum this up:
"We need to teach REAL history, and by real we mean history in a way that doesn't offend us".
Sounds about right, and no one here supporting this clown fiesta will be able to produce a single instance in which the current DOE curricula contains "fake history".
If some historic subjects make you feel uncomfortable then good, that's one of the many reasons we study history.

What is wrong with the American History class that all of my children have had in a public school setting? They also are required to take a Government class.
Patriotic Class? Maybe if the dear leader wasn't constantly telling us the country is not the United States but Red and Blue states we may have more Patriotism.
Guess you didn't pay much attention in Government class. We have a federalist system. The country isn't solely governed at the federal level. The federal and state governments work separately from each other. The state governments don't work FOR the federal government or in concert with it. So commenting about problems in blue states has nothing to do with patriotism.
Nice try. Learn how our government works first next time.
