DoDEA Schools to Implement Curriculum Focused on Western Civilization and Christianity

The Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) will introduce a new curriculum this fall across its 160 global schools for military families, emphasizing Western civilization and Christianity. This initiative, part of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's efforts, aims to redirect the education system toward patriotic values and classical learning. The curriculum will use a textbook from Encounter Books and lesson plans developed with Hillsdale College, marking a notable shift in educational focus.
