Letter to the Superintendent and School Board.

"...nothing in Wisconsin law requires that it be taught. ...if taught in certain ways, an ideology that advances notions of racial guilt and entitlement might itself violate nondiscrimination laws by creating a hostile racial environment." -from a March 17, 2022 letter from Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty to Superintendent Bugnacki and Cedarburg School Board Members

A portion of the letter sent to the Cedarburg School District Superintendent and School Board Members states in the Conclusion that:
“In Wisconsin, school districts select their own curriculum. While Cedarburg is certainly free to amend or add to its curriculum, it need not make any changes as a result of the Bridge the Divide complaint and appeal. Specifically, it need not teach a highly politicized and contested view of history and of race and, depending on how it is executed, may even be forbidden from doing so.
It would be inappropriate and unwarranted for the DPI to find that the
Cedarburg School District curriculum fails to comply with state law as it relates to teaching about race and matters of cultural diversity. Similarly, it would be an overreach for the DPI to mandate wholesale changes to the Cedarburg School District curriculum under Wis. Stat. § 118.13. We will be watching for the response by the DPI and are hopeful that it will find no corrective action is required.”
