Shock: School Districts With DEI Officers Suffered Even Greater Learning Loss During the Pandemic Than Non-Wokef*cked Schools

Really. You don't say.

You mean when an organization turns itself inside-out to prioritize things other than the stated priorities of the organization -- and even in direct opposition to the stated priorities of the organization-- its ability to achieve those now-deprioritized priorities suffers?

I shan't believe it. I simply shannot.

I wonder if corporations know about this effect.

Probably not! I'm sure that woke hiring practices and hiring People of Complaint and People of Pronouns who have no interest in making the corporation profitable, but just making it ideologically compliant by running a coercion racket within the corporation, is delivering huge, huge value for shareholders.

School districts with DEI officers suffered greater pandemic learning losses by Black, Hispanics: Report

The Heritage Foundation's report also showed that school districts with CDOs had secretive transgender policies.

Whoah! Double-plot twist!

A new report revealed on Wednesday that K-12 school districts with a chief diversity officer [CDO] are associated with greater pandemic learning loss by Black and Hispanic students than other districts during COVID and have secretive transgender policies.

According to the Heritage Foundation report, 48% of school districts with at least 15,000 students had a CDO.

Although the purpose of a CDO in a K--12 school district is to reduce achievement gaps for minority students and address their learning needs, the Heritage Foundation found that large school districts with CDOs suffered greater pandemic learning losses among Black and Hispanic students.

Math scores saw their largest decreases ever, while reading scores dropped to levels not seen since 1992 for fourth and eighth graders across the country, according to the Nation's Report Card.

Heritage Foundation Senior Research Fellow Jay Green told FOX News Digital that the federal government provided schools with an additional $190 billion to prevent learning loss during the pandemic.

He added that one of the things school districts spent that money on was hiring chief diversity officers. The investment did not appear to pay off.

"It is now the case that 48% of all school districts with at least 15,000 students has a Chief Diversity Officer, up from 39% two years ago," Green said in a statement. "Rather than stemming learning loss, we found that black and Hispanic students in districts with Chief Diversity Officers experienced greater declines in their math achievement during the pandemic than minority students in districts without a Chief Diversity Officer."

"While these diversity staff were not academically successful, they were associated with the spread of policies to keep secret from parents information about their own child's gender issues, including changes in names, pronouns, and bathroom usage," Green continued. "In school districts with Chief Diversity Officers, 40% had these gender-secrets policies compared to 17% in districts without those officials."

Furthermore, Blacks and Hispanics experienced larger declines in math achievement and those declines on average exceeded the rate of decline among White students.

Triple plot-twist! The most wokef*cked schools did the most damage to black and Hispanic students.

No one saw this coming, except everyone who is not part of the Democrat-Media-"Education" Establishment, and who therefore is paid not to notice the obvious.

Not only did the Heritage Foundation discover that Black and Hispanics suffer greater learning loss than White students, CDOs efforts were geared toward more political activity.

A man can only be shocked so many times before his heart just quits.

More specifically, districts with CDOs were significantly more likely to have policies to keep children's gender confusion or dysphoria secret from parents. The Heritage Foundation reported that such a practice showed that CDOs tend to push "ideological orthodoxies opposed by majorities of parents instead of assisting with student learning or closing minority achievement gaps."

...

"Rather than devoting their time to ensuring that minority students took equal advantage of all available learning tools and opportunities, it appears that CDOs were focused on pursuing very different agendas. The evidence connecting the presence of CDOs to policies to keep gender secrets from parents suggests that CDOs are more focused on promoting ideological goals than educational ones."

That's a Right-Wing Dark MAGA Conspiracy Theory, Thought Criminal.
