Classrooms in K-12 schools and on college campuses should be places of learning — not platforms for political activism in front of a captive audience. 

But today, a small group of ideological activists, highly paid consultants, and bureaucrats in DC are working hard to divide and confuse our nation’s children while eroding the American values you were taught in school. At the same time, the proficiency rates in math and reading continue to worsen nationwide and civics knowledge is abysmal. 

Since 2021, Defending Education has led the fight to restore a healthy, non-political education for all students so they can become the best version of themselves. 

Your gift today will help Defending Education (Defending Ed):

  • Expose the truth of what’s happening in K-12 classrooms and on university campuses  through news-breaking, headline-making investigative reporting, 
  • Continue the rapid growth of our nationwide network of parents, grandparents, and community members – so Defending Ed resources can be used to improve local schools and districts, 
  • Promote meritocracy, not equity, in schools so children are challenged and rewarded for their hard work and accomplishments,
  • Hold school districts and policymakers, from small towns to the White House, legally accountable for the most egregious, racist, and unconstitutional policies.

Yes, I want to support Defending Ed so you can continue your critical work and so school districts and colleges, and universities can find their way back to teaching students how to think instead of what to think.
