独家报道：关于公立学校应教授哪些内容的争论持续激化，这进一步加剧了美国的文化冲突。根据《Defending Education》组织周四发布的《州教育诚信排名》报告，美国各州在涉及家长权利、教育多样性、公平与包容（DEI）、性别与性取向、教师及工会政策以及外国势力影响等关键议题上的表现被进行了评估。
FIRST ON FOX: The escalating battle over what children should be taught in public schools continues to drive America's culture wars, and a new report ranks every state on some of the most contentious issues affecting today's classrooms.
在该排名中，保守派势力较强的“红州”占据了主导地位；该报告涵盖了全部50个州及华盛顿特区。
Red states dominated the ranking, which measures all 50 states and Washington, D.C., on issues spanning parental rights, diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI), gender and sexuality, teacher and union policies, and foreign influence, according to Defending Education's first-ever Rankings on Integrity in State Education, released Thursday.
田纳西州位居榜首，紧随其后的是阿拉巴马州、佛罗里达州、北卡罗来纳州和爱荷华州；而华盛顿特区则排在最后一位，其后依次是罗德岛州、加利福尼亚州、俄勒冈州和伊利诺伊州。
Tennessee claimed the top spot, followed by Alabama, Florida, North Carolina and Iowa, while Washington, D.C. ranked last, followed by Rhode Island, California, Oregon, and Illinois.
该排名并未考虑学生的考试成绩或毕业率，其目的在于反映各州在应对这些敏感议题时的态度——尤其是在家长们日益要求提高教育透明度的背景下。
The rankings do not account for test scores or graduation rates. Instead, the report said it is designed to show how states are approaching hot-button issues as parents demand greater transparency in their children's education.
司法部提起诉讼，针对涉嫌隐瞒学校“性别转换”政策的学校“这是首次有统一的资料来源，让家长们能够了解他们过去五年以来一直关心的问题是如何被处理的，从而让他们有能力评估当地学校的教育质量，并在投票时让相关责任人承担责任，”《Defending Education》组织战略项目高级总监保罗·伦科（Paul Runko）在接受福克斯新闻数字频道（Fox News Digital）采访时说道。
DOJ LAWSUIT TARGETS ALLEGED SCHOOL ‘SECRET GENDER TRANSITIONS’ POLICIES THAT KEEP PARENTS IN THE DARK "For the first time, parents have a single resource to see how their state handles the issues they've voiced concerns about over the last five years, empowering them to evaluate local schools and hold leaders accountable at the ballot box," Paul Runko, senior director of strategic initiatives at Defending Education, said in a statement to Fox News Digital.
在报告的五个评估类别中，与家长权利相关的类别出现了平局：北卡罗来纳州、南卡罗来纳州、田纳西州和西弗吉尼亚州并列第一。这些州因在学生性别转换、性教育内容以及学生是否应参与相关课程等方面给予家长更多发言权而获得了高分。
Of the report's five categories, the parental rights category ended in a four-way tie, with North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and West Virginia earning the top spot. Each was awarded points for policies that give parents more say over student gender transitions, sex education instruction and whether their children participate in those lessons.
乔治亚州、密西西比州、北卡罗来纳州和南卡罗来纳州（这些都属于“红州”，即倾向于共和党的州）在教师政策方面的评分均为满分。报告指出，规范教师工会、罢工及集体谈判行为的法律，以及与教师工作相关的法规，是影响这些州评分的关键因素。
Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina and South Carolina, all red states, received perfect scores on teacher policies. According to the report, laws governing teacher unions, strikes and collective bargaining, along with work authorization requirements, were key factors in the scoring.
特朗普政府提议取消那些实施基于种族的教育项目的学校的免税资格。爱荷华州、密苏里州和西弗吉尼亚州在“多元化、公平与包容”（DEI）方面的评分最高，这些州在限制多元化相关举措、以及与恢复性司法、教师多样性及反犹太主义相关的政策上表现优异。
TRUMP ADMINISTRATION PROPOSES STRIPPING TAX-EXEMPT STATUS FROM SCHOOLS USING RACE-BASED PROGRAMS Iowa, Missouri and West Virginia topped the report's DEI category after receiving high marks for laws restricting DEI initiatives and other policies related to restorative justice, teacher diversity and antisemitism.
教育领域的另一个热点问题是关于性别认同问题以及跨性别运动员参加女子体育比赛的争议。报告分析了各州在禁止针对 LGBTQ+ 群体的课程内容、限制跨性别运动员参赛方面的政策，以及与性别认同相关的反歧视和反欺凌法律；其中，阿拉巴马州、佛罗里达州和印第安纳州的评分最高。
Another major flashpoint in education has been a growing conversation on gender identity and transgender athletes competing in women's sports. The report examined state policies blocking LGBTQ-specific curriculum, restricting transgender athlete participation, and state nondiscrimination and anti-bullying laws related to gender identity, finding Alabama, Florida and Indiana tied for the highest scores.
不过，这份报告的评估范围不仅限于影响课堂教学的政策。有七个“红州”在限制中国政府通过孔子学院等渠道对教育领域施加影响的法律方面获得了满分——这些州包括阿拉巴马州、佛罗里达州、印第安纳州、北卡罗来纳州、俄亥俄州、田纳西州和德克萨斯州。
But the report went further than policies shaping the classroom. Seven red states received perfect scores for laws limiting Chinese government influence in education, including Confucius Institutes, China-backed language and cultural education centers. Alabama, Florida, Indiana, North Carolina, Ohio, Tennessee and Texas aced the category.
在给福克斯新闻数字版（Fox News Digital）的另一份声明中，“捍卫教育”（Defending Education）组织的政府事务主管特里·斯图普斯（Terry Stoops）博士对这些表现优异的州表示了祝贺。
In another statement to Fox News Digital, Dr. Terry Stoops, director of government affairs at Defending Education, congratulated the frontrunners.
独家：众议院委员会调查芝加哥公立学校向家长隐瞒“性别肯定”事宜 “如果你的州在‘捍卫教育’的排名中位居榜首，恭喜你！”他说，“你所生活的州，其公立学校政策重视扎实的学术教育，而非不知羞耻的荒唐把戏。”
EXCLUSIVE: HOUSE COMMITTEE PROBES CHICAGO PUBLIC SCHOOLS OVER HIDING 'GENDER AFFIRMATION' FROM PARENTS "If your state is at the top of Defending Education's rankings, congratulations!" he said. "You live in a state with public school policies that prioritize sound academics over shameless antics."
斯图普斯还把垫底州的责任归咎于民选领导人，指责他们“为了社会正义而牺牲教育卓越”。“对于那些重视严谨、排斥荒谬的家长来说，如果你所在的州排名垫底，选择只有两个：抗争或逃离。”他说。
Stoops also blamed elected leaders for the lowest-scoring states, accusing them of having "sacrificed educational excellence at the altar of social justice." "For parents in bottom-feeder states who value rigor over ridiculousness, the choice is either fight or flight," he said.
尽管越来越多的民主党执政州接受多元、公平与包容（DEI）和社会正义政策，报告称，它希望家长更清楚地了解本州的教育状况，以及这些政策可能对孩子和子孙后代产生的影响。
Despite more blue states embracing DEI and social justice policies, the report said it wants parents to have a clearer picture of where their state stands on education and how those policies could impact their children and future generations.
