<p>The news that principals at several high schools in Fairfax County, Virginia, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/virginia-attorney-general-sets-his-sights-on-another-woke-school-district-after-magnet-school-turns-away-from-merit" target="_blank" rel="noopener">withheld</a> valuable academic awards from top-performing students — around the time the school system hired a consultant that promised “<a href="https://www.fairfaxtimes.com/articles/fairfax_county/fcps-withholds-awards-pays-455-000-for-equity-contractor/article_0bb6c642-86c9-11ed-abbf-cb802353dab6.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">equal outcomes</a> for every student, without exception” — has shocked the nation. How could schools have gone from encouraging academic standouts to seemingly trying to squash them? And what are the consequences for our best and brightest and our nation?</p>
<p>This latest scandal effectively dispenses with a misconception that has confused the debate over politicized schools for three years: The most important way you’ll see Critical Race Theory (CRT) manifest in your school system isn’t through discussions of race at all. It’s through lowered academic standards and the rejection of the idea that excellence even exists.</p>

In Schools, CRT Is The Coverup. The Crime Is Failing Academics.
