Out d’Coup LIVE | Pennridge School District hires far-right Vermillion Education to rewrite social studies curriculum

<p>On this episode of Out d'Coup LIVE, we'll be digging into the Pennridge School Board's decision last week to hire the far-right Vermillion Education to rewrite the district's social studies curriculum. The contract to hire Vermillion was posted to the agenda 24 hours before the meeting and at least four members of the board had no idea it was coming. Tonight, we'll get into the school board meeting, Vermilion's background, and increasing moves by Pennridge to turn the school district into a Christian Nationalist haven.</p> <p>Vermillion Education is a four-month old company founded by former Hillsdale College teacher, Jordan Adams. Adams is a graduate of the private, conservative Christian Hillsdale College and served as the Associate Director for Instructional Resources in the Barney Charter School Initiative at Hillsdale College. The Barney Charter Initiative seeks to establish a national network of charter schools using Hillsdale's K-12 curriculum.</p> <p>LINKS:</p> <ul><li>"Pennridge School Board wants to hire company with ties to Hillsdale College to help write curriculum," Jenny Stephens, Bucks County Beacon | <a href='https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbVpCYmd2bWg3a0taOG5hdUVZUWplUnFvajJGd3xBQ3Jtc0tuNk16b2haYnUzN1Q5M1dnNmV4YUVhNkNBM0lqTzlRS2x1Sm1nR3UzMWZ4VUR0UWxqaGNpcFpaQTlpRko3Q0NSRS1wTTB0QmVpTF9QQUVXNDdxY0JrazhfRUd3bGxZY0tGdGtpMmJXeXV2aHJSYWppQQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2F3NnczF0&v=oijhc_frY8E'>https://bit.ly/3NnczF0</a></li> <li>"Hillsdale College Comes to Pennridge School District via Vermillion Education," Peter Greene, Bucks County Beacon | <a href='https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbHBvYkdBN25pdzQ3SW1zTlhJaEVkWW9HbF9Bd3xBQ3Jtc0ttSzd5OVBGVVlIN3VCaTdSNmxlc2VzX3NrZmxPanJ6b1JLLW5WRUtPQWZ5Ri01VWxHQ2MxdENiNE5rbTdEck1nUFd5Rms0V28wMkd4dFI4LXR5VHVad1BIOGJUWDA0TEpidVEtTFFGVlVsWmIyZ3lTTQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2F3LJadil&v=oijhc_frY8E'>https://bit.ly/3LJadil</a></li> <li>Pennridge school board hires consultant with ties to con
