‘Gobsmacked’: Florida parents, teachers decry changes to science education (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Florida’s new plan for teaching science in public schools lacks depth, skirts around the important topics of climate change and evolution and would be a “disservice” to the state’s students, dozens of parents and teachers told the Florida Department of Education late Wednesday. Nearly 300 people attended a virtual education department forum, with nearly all 29 speakers criticizing the state’s proposed new science standards, which are benchmarks for what should be taught in science lessons in kin
Florida’s new science standards ‘moving backwards’ on evolution, climate change, experts say (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Florida’s proposed new academic standards for science downplay evolution, ignore “climate change” and represent a step backwards for public education, according to several experts who’ve reviewed them.

OCPS, Central Florida’s largest school system, now enrolls about 8,000 fewer students than it did in May. That means a sharp drop in state per-pupil funding, which provides the bulk of its budget. In addition to likely letting go of 98 teachers — almost all new hires in their first teaching jobs — the district also will move 114
