In my experience as an educator and retired principal, this type of teacher training curriculum would originate at the state level with the State Superintendent of schools. Their office would have received the curriculum from the federal level. The incentive to implement CRT or any other training originating at the federal level is, of course, money. Lots of money. States who adopt (and push) certain federally funded programs like Bush's NCLB (No Child Left Behind/Common Core) and Obama's RTTT (Race to the Top) are incentivized by federal funding. Therefore, parents who may object to such curricula have no idea it's being pushed until it's too late. Certain states opted out of CC, like Texas, not because they didn't need the money, but because they didn't want to hand over the educational sovereignty to the federal government. I'm so glad I no longer have to think or care about all this bullshit.
