I don’t see what it has to do with CRT, but it sounds like DeSantis has scrapped it as a teaching concept

From CNN:

“The department said some of the rejected textbooks incorporated Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) and references to critical race theory -- two frameworks or philosophies that some conservative groups claim are being used to indoctrinate students.

Some schools around the country have recently used SEL strategies to help students cope with stress and the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic”

I’ve had multiple co-workers who did their graduate internship assisting with doing a social emotional learning workshop for kids at a school. It was originally intended to be a voluntary-only after school group that discussed managing stresses related to school, such as peer issues and academics

Unfortunately the rare occurrences where a group facilitator encouraged gender confusion in a child ruined trust with some parents about the group. Now the entire group has a bad stigma, and it’s part of the reason for the anti-grooming legislation. Actions of the few ruining it for the many

Counseling about gender (such as affirmation) should be done formally by someone licensed by the state to practice anyway, not a graduate student or a teacher with an education degree. Of course many conservatives feel it shouldn’t be done at all

And why social emotional learning is worked into math curriculum is beyond me

No, the anti-grooming legislation exists to whip conservative retards up into a frenzy by endlessly accusing anyone who didn't vote for Trump of being a pedophile. It's basically just classic Republican projection.
