Summary
Leftist ideology is becoming more pervasive in schools across the country. To counter the trend, Prager University, an organization committed to furthering American values through digital media, has launched PragerU Resources for Educators and Parents, or PREP for short.
The goal of PREP is to provide parents and teachers with creative resources to teach students American history and values. Jill Simonian, director of outreach for PREP, joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to discuss the new program and how families are beginning to use it.
To join PragerU Resources for Educators and Parents (PREP) visit PragerU.com//PREP. You also can connect on Instagram @prageru and @jillsimonian.
Also on today’s show, we read your letters to the editor and share a good news story about a moving company that decided to help local food banks when it realized how much food goes to waste when people move.
Enjoy the show!
