Just as prophesied in the New Testament by Jesus Christ Himself:

As government schools continue to show their commitment to promoting sex and gender ideology to children, Austin Independent School District is preparing to host its annual “Pride Week” pushing teachers and kids to “celebrate LGBTQIA+ students, staff and families.”
Austin ISD said the event, set for March 18-23, will “highlight the district’s commitment to creating a safe, supportive, and inclusive environment.”
According to the district’s website, each campus will receive a guide of suggested resources and activities staff can put on for students.
Staff are advised to reach out to coordinators of their campus Genders and Sexualities Alliances (formerly known as Gay-Straight Alliances) for questions regarding planning activities.
Each AISD campus will also have “pride swag” that students and staff will be able to pick up from their school’s front office.
Throughout the week, AISD will have themes for each day to celebrate LGBT ideology. The week culminates on Saturday when the district will host a “Pride Community Event” with food trucks, a special performance, a student dance, and a social. The event will be hosted at the district’s performing arts center.
A flyer for the Saturday event advertises a performance by the Austin Gay Men’s Chorus and a keynote speech by Key Jackson, who uses “they/them” pronouns. Jackson’s biography states that she is the Director of Programs and Power-building at GLSEN—an organization founded by a group of teachers to advocate for and “affirm” LGBT students in K-12 schools.
A mother of a student who attends an Austin ISD elementary school told Texas Scorecard that she will be keeping her daughter out of school during “Pride Week.”
“We are keeping her out because we want to protect her innocence, and her view on the world is simple. She can’t add or subtract fully. She can’t read a book. She doesn’t understand the fundamentals of life yet. How is someone at her age and functionality going to understand this?” she said.
“My children will stay home. This kind of education is not acceptable for this age. When she is old enough, we will communicate what this stands for as we will communicate where babies come from when it is appropriate,” she added.
Additionally, the mother also sent Texas Scorecard a photo from outside of a Pre-K classroom, where teachers had hung an LGBT flag but there were no American flags in sight.
“These are young kids who are curious about everything. What is the purpose of having a Pride Flag promoted inside and outside the classroom? How come there is nothing else being promoted?” she told Texas Scorecard.
While Austin ISD’s LGBT week is in March, the district also takes part in the “Austin Pride Parade” which is hosted in August.
Last August, Texas Scorecard reported on how Austin ISD spent more than $8,000 for its students to participate in the LGBT parade.
Brady Gray, president of Texas Family Project, told Texas Scorecard Austin ISD “continues to represent the very worst in public education.”
“I cannot think of a single reason a school should promote, much less celebrate sexual deviancy. Especially considering more than 60% of AISD students are not proficient in reading and more than 70% are failing proficiency in math,” said Gray. “Unless parents are willing to step up and demand more of a district, whose superintendent makes $335,000 per year, this evil will continue and our children’s education and future will be left behind.”
Texas Scorecard reached out to Austin ISD about the upcoming events but did not receive a response by publication.
Can we trade Austin for Portland?
Now I finally understand why Little Rocketman’s list of US cities he might nuke had Austin, Texas as number 4.

When will the Austin ISD host Straight Pride Year?
Exactly. We need some millstones placed around necks in the sea 🌊 for these wicked people.
Maybe if we start using the entire alphabet to identify the wierdos they will learn how to spell...and eventually read.
This generation is going to have rough times ahead.
Since you revised the first image with a nearly identical second image, could you please post only the second image?
The first one is the one that’s the most popular
As long as they are celebrating and encouraging sinners, why don’t they institute “Murderer Week”?
Right, well then using just one would make sense. When you post the same redundant images to multiple threads it appears more like spamming.
cause June just isn’t enough...
Sorry - oh well
Have a great day
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.
Austin is a hell hole.
Living 55 miles away is too close for comfort. Their local TV news is not worth watching. I only watch the weather report & then the TV is turned off or switched to reruns of “The Office.”
We still have some GARBAGE to clear out, like my local rep who voted to Impeach Paxton, yet still ran unopposed. But, so far, it’s been GREAT to seem some SERIOUS PURGING going on, especially regarding the Texas Supreme Court.
It’s Austin, Jake.
