Temecula School Board Under Fire for Controversial Actions.

Governor Gavin Newsom and Attorney General Rob Bonta have urged the Temecula Valley Unified School District Board of Education to provide information regarding its process and decision-making related to the Board's decision to reject the Social Studies Alive program for grades 1 through 5. The curriculum, recommended by district staff and adopted by the State Board of Education, is in line with the FAIR Act's requirements. Attorney General Bonta has sent a letter expressing concern over the Board's actions and seeking information regarding its decision. The letter emphasizes that local educational agencies have a legal obligation to implement a social sciences curriculum highlighting the contributions of various groups, including gay, bisexual, and transgender Americans.
