Even in conservative states, your kids’ school may be uber-woke
American Thinker ^ | 19 Apr, 2023 | Andrea Widburg

School administrators at one Indiana school openly boast about how they hide woke content from parents.

Just because you’re in a red state, that does not mean that your child is safe from leftist content. After all, most graduates of America’s education training programs started out or were taught to be leftists. Accuracy in Media (“AIM”) managed to get hidden camera footage of administrators in several Indiana schools explaining how they hide from parents that they’re still teaching CRT and anti-Americanism.

It’s apparent from how the revelations unfold that the AIM undercover operatives posed as leftist parents concerned that their children, if they attended the targeted schools, would not be exposed to leftist thinking about race and America itself. The school employees, however, hastened to assure these “parents” that they had created sophisticated systems to trick the more conservative families in the district into believing that Social-emotional Learning (“SEL”), Critical Race Theory (“CRT”), and Diversity Equity and Inclusion (“DEI”) were not being drilled into their children.

While all conservatives know what CRT and DEI are, they may be unfamiliar with SEL. It sounds innocuous for it argues that children with better social and emotional skills learn better and fare better in life than those lacking those skills. That’s the theory.

In practice, SEL is a way to train students to align themselves with leftist values. It begins with schools administering an endless series of “tests” that simultaneously data mine students for their existing values and seek to inculcate them with new values. Thus, they’ll be asked to tell how they feel about seeing two men kissing. As Brian Parsons said, “it is a shift in the role of a teacher from an education to a therapist….”

If Deep State remains in power there won’t be any so-called red states soon.

There will be no possibility of voting with one’s feet.

That should be pretty obvious.A huge majority of teachers in this country...*everywhere*...are Maoists focused on “fundamentally transforming” this country,as advocated in Rules For Radicals.

Heard that in Cuba, MO elementary, a teacher put a kitty litter box in(I assume the bathroom) in case a kid feels like a kitty.

Most big cities are sewers, regardless what color the state they’re in is.

It is class warfare against the working class and middle class, by attacking children.

That’s probably because Crawford County is uber liberal, and voted for Clinton twice.

The Shawnee Mission School District in my state of Kansas is full of woke teachers and programs. Such a shame.

You’re probably high because I live here. Very red county. Trump 2020 flags still flying. Cuba is on the interstate though. Lots of outer state people in an interstate town.

I’ve worked in schools. That’s been going on since at least the 1980s. Some of the more radical instructors (especially feminists) in university education programs (especially Secondary English education programs) push out some of the students who lean to the right (especially men, and men who’ve been through military basic training even more). Any male student who behaves in an obviously masculine manner draws hostile attention quickly.

I’ve also heard radical leftist public education teachers tell parents that they were conservative.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

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.
