Parents at Tustin Unified School District in Orange County, CA, are demanding answers after discovering their children were given a “White Savior Complex Assignment” and were administered a “Healthy Kids’ survey (which included racial questions) without parental knowledge. Emails, meetings with school administrators, and questions presented at Board meetings were met with little response and few answers.
Parents ultimately submitted a Public Records Request demanding all information and communications regarding Critical Race Theory. On June 2, 2021, parents received files from the District which only heightened concerns that Critical Race Theory was being woven into the school curriculum.
The Public Records Request revealed that a substitute teacher assigned a “White Savior Complex” assignment to high school students in English Honors aligned with their study of To Kill a Mockingbird.
Tustin Unified School District Superintendent Franklin approved the “White Savior Complex” assignment as Ethnic Studies curriculum saying, “I think it’s a good assignment in the ethnic studies course … not so sure about a high school English course.”
Although the District spokesperson stated that the District will not incorporate CRT into its curriculum, the response by Board member, Allyson Damikolas, reflects an attempt to soften language seemingly to keep parents from understanding what is really going on. “I had a comment on the ethnic studies presentation, the second bullet saying that ‘it is not aligned with CRT’ is slightly inaccurate in my opinion. I think it would be more accurate to say that it is ‘not the same as CRT’ or something like that…..The ideas that we recognize that systems are not always fair because of race, and we value diversity, is a component of CRT. It’s complicated and nuanced I admit, but that bullet in particular will be scrutinized by that opposing parent group.”
Opposing parent group? So any concerns parents bring to school administrators make them opponents rather than caretakers invested in their children’s well-being? That phrasing certainly suggests this school district sees it as an ‘us against them’ situation. And honestly, at this point, parents across the country feel that that is the environment schools have created.
School officials seem to view parents as an annoying barrier to their efforts to indoctrinate our children. The principal of Foothill High School, Michelle England, annoyed by the inquiries from parents stated, “(I) am about to draw some boundaries.”
Boundaries for what? To prevent parents from even asking questions about what information is being presented to their children?
Aren’t teachers and school administrators paid to serve the students and parents? Who do these people work for? Parents deserve honest answers from the school officials on what is being taught to their children.
One parent, on why he was speaking to the school board yet again states, “Tonight I find myself standing here for the sixth time in the last twelve months. Why do I keep coming back? It’s simple….I don’t trust you.”
parents pushing back... and the board and sup are mad...
I had to do something for my friends son last august, somethig was wrong with his school laptop.. long story short i took him to the school, and stood off to the side with a upset look on my face.. the “security” hustled to get the laptop fixed and we left.. I never said a word.
Isn’t that what juneteenth is all about? The White dudes of the Union Army freed the slaves from their oppressors.
Does save your equate to paying your taxes, helping your Community, helping other people with charitable contributions and work, encouraging police to do their job, and working together to have a better society for others?
Indoctrination centers ...
Yeah, remember doing crazy stuff like reciting the times table and diagramming sentences?
Not cool anymore, I guess.
This is happening because while Americans are asleep, schools, governments and institutions took over, and continue to take, parents’ responsibilities for their children.
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
I would really like to see the parents subject a school board like this to a Chinese style struggle session. The whole crowd, white, black, Hispanic, Asian pissed off parents getting in their faces. Give them a dose of their own Maoist inspiration.
Teachers are nearly all relativists, which is a Marxist world view. They are all government employees. They don’t work for us, they work for the Marxist teachers Union and The Marxist government Superintendant. It very much is an us versus them situation. They are doing what Marxists do, which is to crush Christianity, the two parent family, and to cause class struggle. White people as a group are the contemporary Kulaks.
This is 100% about God. All of this Big Government is man's attempt to replace God with Man. CRT is a tool to incite more enmity and Marxian class struggle. The root of Marxism is Atheism. It is rebellion against God.
It all derives from rebellion against God.
No.... the best way to stop this junk is to run for school board. Anyone can get elected to school board. Anyone
