It has recently come to my intention that there are several issues related to the first draft of the "2020 Minnesota K-12 Academic Standards in Social Studies." I did a search on the standards for Holocaust and for World War II. I did not see any standards that were directly mention the Holocaust by name. And I saw only one standard that directly references World War II by name. I did see several standards related to post-World War II. I have the standard below:
"19.9.2 Analyze two or more conflicting narratives about global conflict, considering how different individuals, communities, or nations have presented and narrated global conflicts, such as World War II, the Korean War, or the Vietnam War."
I do not know how many members have the children in the Minnesota school system, but I would recommend that parents look at the standards and notify their schools regarding deficiencies in the Standards related to American history.
I know there are people in here interested in World War II and it maybe useful for them to be aware of the desired changes in the standards as seen by the first draft. I have a link to the draft below:
I do not have a problem if there is a desire for the moving of this thread to a different forum.
