A recently launched hotline by Arizona’s top education official, a newly elected Republican, gives parents the opportunity to combat “woke” lessons being taught in Arizona schools, including “inappropriate” sexual content and other radical ideology.

Arizona’s Department of Education introduced a hotline last week for the public to report classroom lessons promoting critical race theory (CRT), gender ideology, and “inappropriate sexual content,” topics that have long faced conservative criticism.

The “Empower Hotline,” which “empowers” concerned parents by encouraging them to report lessons that “detract from teaching academic standards,” was a key promise of Republican Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Horne’s recent campaign, which aimed to prioritize math and reading instruction while declaring “war” on unnecessary and potentially harmful discussions about emotions and identity, according to the Arizona Republic.

The Department of Education’s website allows for Arizona residents to report “inappropriate lessons that detract from teaching academic standards,” which includes topics such as those linked to CRT and “social and emotional learning” programs accused of promoting “woke” concepts regarding race, gender, and sexuality.
