Teacher Laura Morris resigned from her position at Lucketts Elementary School in Virginia, citing concerns over critical race theory and “equity trainings” in schools. Speaking at a Loudoun County School Board meeting, she criticized the imposition of political views on students and staff, particularly focusing on the pressure to promote divisive ideas. Morris also highlighted a stifling atmosphere, where teachers were encouraged to report criticism of the school board’s practices. Her resignation sparked wider discussions about freedom of expression in education and the balance between institutional policies and personal convictions.
