At a time when a growing number of states are passing restrictions on how to teach about race in K-12 schools, a slim majority of educators say they spend some or a lot of time teaching Black history, according to new survey results.

The EdWeek Research Center administered a national online survey to 863 educators, including 401 teachers, from March 29 through April 11.

Of surveyed teachers who said their job this year includes teaching students about aspects of history, 56 percent said they spent some or a lot of time this school year teaching students about Black history—either as a standalone subject or incorporated into other subjects.
