Ron DeSantis, the Governor of Florida, has unveiled his plans for an innovative civics curriculum if he is elected President later this year. During an interview on KCCI in Iowa, DeSantis stated his intention to create a national model curriculum for American civics, based on the successful program implemented in Florida. The Governor emphasized the importance of teaching people about the founding principles of the United States and what it means to be an American. DeSantis previously launched the Civic Literacy Excellence Initiative in Florida, which utilized federal coronavirus relief funds to enhance civics education. The initiative aimed to make Florida the national leader in civics education and eliminate any politicization from the curriculum. DeSantis also expressed his desire to eliminate the federal Department of Education, believing that his future administration could provide valuable civics guidance. As DeSantis continues to outline his educational policies, he aims to shape the national conversation surrounding history and social studies education.
