HB 7 & HB 1557 Guidance
During the 2022 legislative session several bills were passed that have had a chilling effect on what we teach in our classrooms and how we interact with our students. For guidance on HB 1557, also known as the Don’t Say Gay bill click here. For information regarding your rights and frequently asked questions about teaching history click here. FEA believes that our strength is in our unity, and we will continue to focus on our core mission of making sure every child receives the education they deserve and need regardless of race, zip code, income, disability status, gender, or sexual orientation.
