Bill Summary
Relative to racially and culturally inclusive curriculum frameworks designed by the Board of Education. Education.
AI Summary
This bill amends existing law to require the Board of Education to design curriculum frameworks that are racially and culturally inclusive. The frameworks must avoid perpetuating stereotypes, build racially and culturally responsive knowledge, and elevate the history and achievements of communities of color and other marginalized groups. The bill also requires the Board to have a process for soliciting and incorporating input from stakeholders, including educators, students, and members of marginalized communities, in developing the frameworks. Additionally, the Department of Education must establish a complaint procedure to enforce the requirements in the bill, with final determinations appealable to the Massachusetts Superior Court.
