South Carolina Superintendent Ellen Weaver announced Monday afternoon that the Palmetto State has adopted PragerU as an educational partner.
[…]PragerU is well-known for their short videos for social media and YouTube with titles like “What Radical Islam and the Woke Have in Common”, “Make Men Masculine Again”, and “Would You Rather Be Colonized by Aztecs or Christians?”
[…]The South Carolina Department of Education (SCDE) said various content streams from Prager U have been approved for usage in state schools, including PragerU Kids content, age-appropriate “5-Minute Videos” and the Cash Course series.
The department said PragerU’s resources are optional but will be supported by the state should teachers wish to use them.
“As we celebrate Constitution Day, the South Carolina Department of Education reaffirms its commitment to providing an exceptional education for every child,” said Superintendent Weaver. “We are thrilled to announce the addition of supplemental materials for South Carolina schools through this partnership. These optional educational materials, aligned with South Carolina’s K-12 standards, will provide a wide range of essential topics like civics and financial literacy.”
South Carolina is one of several states that have joined the PragerU in Schools initiative, including Florida, Oklahoma, Montana, New Hampshire, Arizona, Louisiana and more.
