China Sinking $17 Million into US Public Schools, Parental Group Report

Our children are in the crosshairs. America is off the rails.

A group called “Parents Defending Education” has released a scathing report called “Little Red Classrooms: China’s Infiltration of American K-12 Schools,” which details how China is funding various schools in the U.S., many of them near military bases. The report claims China has funneled $17,967,565.12 to 134 schools, located in 34 states and D.C., from 2009-2023. The report outlines how the money comes through Confucius Institutes and its elementary-through-high school programming called “Confucius Classrooms” (PJ Media).

Rep. Jim Banks is demanding the Education Department take action with ‘urgency’ in in order to terminate these ‘disturbing’ partnerships, he says in a letter to Sec. Miguel Cardona. ‘The Chinese Communist Party is not a trustworthy partner. Accepting funding and influence from our greatest adversary is a threat to America’s children and national security.’ He wrote in the letter that the U.S. must ‘take every measure’ to strengthen its defenses against China including by ‘blocking their ability to propagandize in America’s K-12 schools’ (Daily Mail).

China is funding America’s public schools to the tune of $17 million dollars, it has been revealed, with Republicans now probing the disturbing donations.

The report by Parents Defending Education states that the close coordination between the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and U.S. schools to establish Confucius Classrooms has historically included 143 school districts in 34 states and Washington, D.C.

In addition, at least seven contracts are still active in Texas, Kentucky, Minnesota, Oklahoma, Oregon and Washington.

The report called ‘Little Red Classrooms’ reveals that $17 million has been funneled from CCP-connected financial institutions into U.S. K-12 schools, through Confucius Institutes and other cultural and language programs.

It also states that the CCP has ‘ties to school districts near 20 U.S. military bases’ and three of the nation’s top science and technology high schools have been infiltrated.

‘While the United States is not officially part of China’s Belt and Road Initiative, Chinese state media has touted the work done by Confucius Institutes and Confucius Classrooms to further the Chinese Communist Party’s global influence,’ the report continues.

China has facilitated these relationships through grants and sister school partnerships going back to 2009. Programming and funding has varied between school districts, the report adds.

PDE President Nicki Neily said in a statement that the ‘alarming evidence’ uncovered by the investigation should ‘concern parents, educators, and policymakers alike.’

The report has been given to state and federal lawmakers in the hopes that it will spur action.

China has been forcing their communist agenda in the schools for several years. They also have been establishing their china police force in several cities.

We have those CCP police stations in Canada. This, after learning they financed Chinese candidates in our elections. Like the latest Mayor elected in Toronto. But our Federal China loving Government is okay with it.

It just demonstrates that there are a lot of Traitors in our midst. The fact that school boards and teachers, etc. Would allow anything connected with China to be introduced into the school system. These people need to be in front of a Firing Squad. You just cannot fix or recondition Stupidity and those who are Treasonous. You can’t save them and return them back into the system.

Boston mayor Wu ordered all new construction projects to be built without using fossil fuels.
This is how to ruin formerly great American city without firing a single shot.

No-Clue Wu. Wait till we get a typical deep-freeze in the middle of winter. Lots of burst pipes coming in these new buildings. She, the city council, the shiny-headed bald congresswoman, and don’t forget the Fake Indian….all enemies of the people !!!
