Schools Offer ‘Emotional Support’ to Students, Teach About ‘Sedition’ After Capitol Riot
Breitbart ^ | January 8, 2021 | Kyle Olson

Public schools across the country are quickly responding to Wednesday’s events at the U.S. Capitol by offering “emotional support” for students and teaching vocabulary words such as “insurrection” and “sedition.”

Ally Stanton, a kindergarten teacher in Needham, Massachusetts, told 25 News:

I had a lot of students coming in this morning saying things such as Mommy and Daddy were watching a lot of news, bad guys got into the White House, there were bad people that were trying to hurt others in Washington. A lot of them were really concerned because they know that people shouldn’t be breaking into buildings… that it’s just not normal for them.

Boston-area school districts’ “regular lesson plans were either pushed aside or modified to include discussions about the demonstration against the presidential election that turned into a violent attack on the U.S. Capitol,” the news station reported.

Diana Cross, a middle school English teacher, refused to call it a “protest.”

I suspect that German schools related the sedition of Claus Von Stauffenberg in July 1944.

Government schools have gone full fascist. How much longer before school children start informing the authorities on their parents for thought crimes?

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.

After the Constitutional Restoration when these lefties are gone, Academia is going to be reformed.

Leftist Poisoning of Children is one of the most heinous crimes.

OMG. I really have to shake this addiction to giving a rat’s turd. I’m older, financially fine, warm and dry, no kids. There is so much madness, right down to the little things. Every. Single. Day. And no end in sight.

Add those names to the list. Someone knows where they live. We need them to be afraid of the consequences of spouting their propaganda to students.
