"The pandemic was one of the worst things to happen to public education in years and the teacher unions and Democrats made it even worse by repeatedly postponing the reopening of schools. Many parents were also horrified to discover the woke content that is being taught."

They will fill those schools with the children of trespassers and/or turn them into housing for trespassing families.

“The warning stems from an analysis of national enrollment data by the Brookings Institution and some reporting from The 74.

Their analysis came after Brookings researchers found a decline in elementary and middle school enrollment, a one-fifth loss of their enrollment.”

Good. Defund the public schools.

They’ll still find a way to raise your school taxes.

Remember to vote “no” on any/all local school bonds that come your way.

My city has defeated several - as our public schools have become “woker and woker” and brag about “Gay Pride Day” - while canceling anything to do with Christmas.

Walk away. It works with businesses, subscriptions, readership. It works when ginned-up protests try to attract attention. It works in education. Simply walk away.

What if they gave a "woke" war, and nobody came? It's working in lagging military recruitment. It's working against the Mulvaney-Bud Lite marketing failure. It's working against the EV push. Simply walk away.

Like it’s a bad thing?

If you remotely love your kids, it’s your duty to remove them from public schools.

The far-left freak show will fill those seats with little muppets that can’t understand English. Should be quite a circus. Bigger than before.

The “pandemic” has exposed the socialist/NWO indoctrination plan of the schools....and it’s “anti-American” and sick enough for American parents to opt out!!

The woke and DEI came to light for many parents during the shut down.
Vast majority of parents want edumacation to be reading writing arithmatic and history Not woke Crappola.
Also teachers unions have ruined public education.

Every day, Libs of Tic Tok shows insane, LGBTQ, transgender, marxist teachers telling the world on video how they intend to subvert the children under their care

the evidence is all around you - get your kids out of corrupt, bloated, bureaucratic public schools

It’s good like the overturn of Roe. So what will we do for a followup? There’s an election coming up just like there was when Roe was given back to the states.

Defeat from the jaws of victory. That’s our par for the course.

Our local St. Johns County here in Free Florida is struggling to build enough schools to meet the needs of new residents.... Interesting, huh.

Here in Chandler AZ-—a city just a year ago the fastest growing city in the U.S. at 2k a month-—the local paper reported the other day a surprise drop in 821 students vs. expected 200. This meant the loss of $3.5 million in revenue.

AZ has a voucher system that gives parents the ed money to spend on any education they wish-—private, public, charter, or homeschool.

The public schools are now on death row.

In Washington State over 50,000 students had been withdrawn from the public schools - and that was two years ago!

The schools will close but government spending will not decrease.

In fact, taxes will need to go up if a public school closes.

“enough schools”

Schools could be run like most stores, closed only for Christmas and Thanksgiving.

Schools might have shifts of about 181 days each so the school would be open 362 days a year.
