Maryland Parents, here on the shore, will be putting their children into parochial schools.
What they’re saying is that the citizens don’t control the government but the government controls the citizens. Exactly upside down.
Absolute evil.
W strikes again.
“International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights”
“Article 18
....
The States Parties to the present Covenant undertake to have respect for the liberty of parents and, when applicable, legal guardians to ensure the religious and moral education of their children in conformity with their own convictions.”

The Covenant is international law that the US has agreed to abide by.
The federal government does not care about the rights of Christians or Jews.
But what will happen when (not if, but when) a Muslim family demands that their kids be excluded from this LGBT nonsense? I’ll bet you a dollar the Muslim family will be accommodated.
This would be a great project for an investigative journalist to research.
(Are there any investigative journalists left?)
Low-Tuition Cost Private School Models
Many of our fellow Americans live in areas where leftists have poisoned the school systems.
TRADITIONAL TEACHER MODEL
My primary model would have about twenty kids in a class and a tuition of around $4,000/year/student.
Each teacher would set his/her tuition rate and maximum class size and handle student admission. Homeowner associations might host hook-up events for teachers, parents and prospective students. Tuition might be paid monthly for affordability and two months in advance (so it won’t be problem for the teacher if the parents have a major car repair bill one month).
Men and women who have good English and math skills but lack high-value technical skills might choose to become such teachers.
Teachers might provide their SAT scores and college transcript information to prospective parental customers. Independent certification authorities might thoroughly test the teachers and issue report cards.
Classrooms might be set up in commercial space no longer usable for retail stores because of excessive minimum wages or shrinkage.
A classroom might have four rows of five students each and might be around 1,000 square feet in size.
The curriculum might be based on a traditional state model, a current state model, a proprietary model or the teacher’s own handiwork.
PARENTAL ASSISTANCE MODEL
The Parental Assistance Model would have a parent of each child assist the teacher for a period of two weeks each school year.
The teacher would provide necessary training for the parents during several weekends prior to the school year.
Parents who don’t have the time or skill to fulfill their responsibilities would have to pay and arrange for substitutes. At 35 hours a week for two weeks at $30/hour with employer taxation, hiring a substitute might cost $1050. High-income parents would often seek low-income household parents to substitute, thereby helping the low-income household parents pay tuition.
PARENT TEACHER MODEL
The Parental Teacher Model would be the lowest cost form. It would have a parent of each child be a teacher for a period of two weeks each school year.
Parents looking to participate would obtain the necessary training and certification from a specialized training organization over about 100 classroom hours prior to the school year. This organization or another would obtain and maintain the physical classroom space.
Parents who don’t have the time or skill to fulfill their responsibilities would have to pay or arrange for substitutes.
PRIVATE SCHOOL TUITION FUNDING by SCHOOL PROPERTY TAX REBATE
To assist parents in paying tuition and to be fair to the parents, the amount of school taxes they (and perhaps the parents’ parents) pay on their residence(s) might be rebated.
Eventually, rebates might be paid for past year tuition as well, so if parents pay $8,000/year tuition for two kids and $3,000/year in school taxes, the $5,000/year difference could be rebated to the parents in the years after their kids graduate.
It is no longer possible for Republicans to reform systems at the federal level, so Republicans must enact state-level reforms.
“Universal Declaration of Human Rights
“Article 26
1. Everyone has the right to education. Education shall be free, at least in the elementary and fundamental stages. Elementary education shall be compulsory. Technical and professional education shall be made generally available and higher education shall be equally accessible to all on the basis of merit.
2. Education shall be directed to the full development of the human personality and to the strengthening of respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms. It shall promote understanding, tolerance and friendship among all nations, racial or religious groups, and shall further the activities of the United Nations for the maintenance of peace.
3. Parents have a prior right to choose the kind of education that shall be given to their children.”
https://www.ohchr.org/sites/default/files/UDHR/Documents/UDHR_Translations/eng.pdf
That is not legally binding within the US, but US officials out of compliance with international law who are in a foreign country might be made subject to court proceedings.
Sick. Totalitarians think they own your children.
“It is clearly stated in the Holy Quran:
‘Verily, you practise your lusts on men instead of women. Nay, but you are a people transgressing beyond bounds (by committing great sins)’
[al-A’raaf 7:80-81]
It is very clearly mentioned in this verse that the people of Lut were engaging in homosexuality and it was a manifest sin. Many other verses imply the same meaning and verdict without any disagreement or discrepancy on the matter.”

My son’s conservative Christian private school is turning away applicants because they don’t have enough room or teachers to accommodate them. Several grades are adding an extra class next year, as we try to make more classroom space. The crap in this article is a lot of the reason for the demand.
“Decriminalize homosexuality”, they said. “We just want to be left alone”, they said.
Yes they can, if they homeschool.
“Federal Court Rules Maryland Parents Cannot Opt Children Out of LGBT Lessons”
It should be noted that the UK is in the process of OUTLAWING this crap for kids under 10 and also allowing parental opt-out for kids over 10, while most ‘backwards’ countries (think Africa and Russia) don’t allow any of this crap.
That’s how SICK the US has become.
“Since the prohibition has come from his Lord, the Muslim should not wait until medicine proves that harm befalls the one who does that which Allah has forbidden. Rather he must believe firmly that Allah only prescribes that which is good for people, and these modern discoveries should only increase his certainty and confidence in the greatness of Allah’s wisdom.”

The children belong to the parents, not the state. WE choose what our children are exposed to (with obvious exception to the vile), not the state.
It’s time We The People remember that we’re supposed to be in charge, not a tyrannical government.
Something wrong with this clown. Either a fruitcake or a pedophile.
Worst part is the puny percentage of parents who WOULD opt out.
The public schools and the government have to keep working on behalf of Satan! ...imho
