TRACE SENTINEL Education Watch

Safeguarding education through intelligence, oversight, and accountability

TRACE SENTINEL is a specialized division within TRACE’s broader investigative network, focused on identifying, mapping, and documenting ideological influence inside America’s schools.

Operating under TRACE’s core mission of Transparency, Responsibility, and Accountability in Education, SENTINEL monitors how political movements, activist groups, and aligned educators shape narratives, training, and curricula across K–12 environments.

By combining open-source research, public records analysis, and verified intelligence, SENTINEL produces concise briefings and network reports that reveal how ideology moves through classrooms, teacher programs, and district structures.

Our objective is clear: protect education from ideological capture while advancing transparency, neutrality, and integrity in every public school system.
