Response To Star Tribune Article

On May 2, 2025 the Star Tribune ran an article with the headline “Teachers union accuse Anoka-Hennepin school board of micromanaging how and what to teach.”

Union leaders can plan protests and get media attention, but the facts are clear: direct instruction works, especially for struggling students. The three A-H board members are right to question trendy inquiry-based curriculums that don’t deliver results. This is about giving every student a strong foundation.

Contact the school board today and voice your support for more direct instruction in our classrooms!
