“If a child chooses not to watch the speech, the child will be sent to our media center to engage in an individual literacy activity directed by the teacher”

what does this mean? Do they actually have to do work versus a free ride of just sitting and watching obama?

Kids already face great peer pressure for a whole host of(TM Obama) things..this is just one more way to divide students.

Is that what we used to call “study hall” or Library?
Why don’t they just say so!

Probably reading a book about the Dear Leader.

Children at this age do not have choices in this matter. Either the parents take charge of this issue or the Bolsheviks in the school will. It is your choice not theirs.

When we sent my daughter to a public High School after attending private school we opted her out of the "Family Life" sex counseling week.

To punish her/us the libtard teachers made the students who opted out write a ten page research report (full Bib. and footnotes too) on some kind of health related subject. TEN pages in five days, fully researched, for a 9th grader!

For the first time in my family I made her find a subject, get some research pages from the web and then I sat down one evening and wrote her paper for her. It was hard to write at a 9th grade level but I made it and she was the only opt out student to get an A.

The rest of the class sat and got the liberal version of sex ed and had to do nothing.

Before Bill Ayers and his like moved to take over the schools, and “individual literacy activity” was called “reading.”

an individual literacy activity directed by the teacher

instead of listening to the speech they get to read the transcript of the speech as feed by the teleprompter.

To be taunted and ridiculed. Like GOP are A**holes, terrorists, etc., etc. The parents should demand NO speech from any politicians or their wife - ever!
