Parents Defending Education (PDE) is investigating the influx of Chinese Communist Party-linked funding of K-12 schools in the United States.
PDE president Nicole Neily leads a grassroots organization dedicated to fighting indoctrination in classroomsis"deeply concerning" to Parents Defending Education , a grassroots organization dedicated to fighting indoctrination in the classroom that plans to take the issue to Capitol Hill next week.
"We believe that families deserve to know what is taking place, where the money is coming from, what the curriculum is, so that they can make a decision whether they want their children to participate in these programs or not," she continued."We are not saying that these programs shouldn't exist.
Earlier this year, PDE found that Fairfax County Public Schools’ TJ Partnership Fund had received over $1 million worth of donations from Chinese interests since 2014. Documents reveal that the 501c nonprofit operating out of Thomas Jefferson High School received funding amounts of more than $500,000 from Shirble HK, and more than $250,000 from Tsinghua University and the Ameson Foundation, respectively.
"Interestingly, now we're seeing Thomas Jefferson mired in equity fights, and it has dropped in the rankings domestically," she continued."So, Thomas Jefferson is now not only not able to compete against other schools of its caliber in America, but certainly not against its counterparts internationally, which is a travesty."
"We have both foreign nationals basically ripping off an education model that American companies, American students, American education system has poured millions of dollars into," Neily said.
