Fairfax County Schools Mark 9/11's 25th Without Naming Islam
The Virginia district's internal guide opens 'safe spaces' for Muslim students and bars teachers from linking Islam to the hijackers.
- Fairfax County Public Schools issued the guide ahead of 9/11's 25th anniversary this year.
- The internal memo, titled '25th Anniversary and Commemoration of 9/11,' guides teacher lesson plans.
- Nearly 3,000 people died in the 2001 attacks now taught without naming Islam's role.
Why it matters: Administrators who script which facts a teacher can say already decide what a child will believe.
