Last week’s tussles between state officials and a pair of Southern California school boards may have died down, but they’ve thrown a spotlight on deeper tensions over who makes decisions for local schools — a rift that’s likely to grow as the culture wars escalate

People need to form Alternatives for Education. Grouping together with like minded neighbors. Keep the government OUT of schools.

When school boards said things like “parents have no role in the proper education of their school age children” and similar things, not everyone shrugs and says it must be okay if teachers think so.

And not allowing parents to be told in advance (or after it happens) that hypodermic syringes are being used to inject hormones and puberty blockers to kids isn’t a winning strategy for non-woke parents, either.

I know a lady who runs a homeschool organization outside of San Francisco, she says the amount of students in California being put into homeschooling is skyrocketing, they cannot keep up and every homeschool org is either overwhelmed or they have to just recommend the parents get together and create a new one

What other delusions shall local school boards bow to? I want to see what happens when a 42 year old who insists they are 15 year old girl shows up demanding enrollment.

"...not everyone shrugs and says it must be okay if teachers think so."

The State of California seems to be responding in a manner inspired by the tactics used by Scientology against "suppressives."

Fed money follows the child. Real school choice.
