N.C. Accountability and Curriculum Reform Effort Proposal to Eliminate Pre-Construction History from High School Now DOA

North Carolina's Accountability and Curriculum Reform Effort (ACRE) proposal to eliminate pre-reconstruction history from high school curriculum is now effectively dead on arrival, as yesterday's News & Observer explains.

The proposal, which resulted in massive public outcry, would have eliminated teaching American history prior to 1877 to high school students.
