SB156

Regards the success sequence curriculum

Senate | In House Committee (Education)

๐Ÿ“‹ What This Bill Does

The bill requires the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce to develop a 'success sequence' curriculum for grades six to twelve, which emphasizes completing high school, obtaining full-time work, and marrying before having children to reduce poverty. School districts must provide instruction aligned with this curriculum and may modify it as necessary. The department will also establish a committee for reviewing the curriculum and adopt rules for its administration.

Rationale

The bill promotes a government-mandated educational framework that emphasizes specific life choices, which conflicts with the Libertarian principles of personal liberty and parental rights. Both the LP and LPO advocate for minimal government interference in personal decisions and education, leading to a low alignment score.

Risks and Concerns

  • Increased government control over education
  • Potential infringement on parental rights
  • Promotion of specific social norms
