Francis Howell school board candidates discuss handling of Proposition S funding, new Francis Howell North High School

( We highly recommend you watch this short video: Prop S Explained )


The truth about Critical Race Theory in Francis Howell:

  • The district, Mr. Hoehn, and other candidates often like to say:  “Critical Race Theory is not taught in Francis Howell”.
    This worn out straw man obscures the truth:  While Critical Race Theory  (the graduate/law school theoretical framework) is not taught, that has never been our contention.
  • Francis Howell Families has always said that the Black History / Black Literature classes were developed and teach students history through a lens of CRT, using CRT doctrines.
  • Last year, Francis Howell hired a self-proclaimed CRT expert and consultant, LaGarrett King, to instruct our staff on writing new curriculum.   Watch behind the scenes and decide for yourself if CRT is being applied in these courses:

  • Last fall, Randy Cook wrote a letter to the Superintendent and Board members that detailed how CRT was being used in the new Black History classes.   The district and school board members, including Mr Hoehn, have never responded to his letter:

No way, Groomer
