The Palm Beach County School Board, representing one of the nation’s largest school districts, voted to eliminate all DEI programs and practices in the district this week. The southeastern Florida district serves over 189,000 students.
Previously, the district used DEI in teacher hiring and contracting with businesses, WPBF reports.
The board took the vote as the Trump administration has vowed to cut federal funding for school systems that don’t eliminate DEI programming, which discriminates based on race, sex and other factors.
