For the first time, Lt. Gov. Janice McGeachin’s education task force will accept public comment during the group’s final meeting Thursday at the Statehouse.
Created by McGeachin in April, she said the task force was designed to “examine indoctrination in Idaho and to protect our young people from the scourge of critical race theory, socialism, communism and Marxism.”
Last month, the task force discussed eliminating the State Board of Education, which was created by the Idaho Constitution to provide general supervision of Idaho’s schools and public colleges and universities.
The Idaho Press explains, Thursday’s meeting, which will begin at 1 p.m. in the Lincoln Auditorium at the Statehouse.
