How many of you are parents? How many of you have kids in public schools?
I recommend that you check out this recent piece from the Dissident Teacher, who has some words of wisdom for you, especially in regard to fighting against the woke agenda and bizarre curricular choices made in our modern schools.
Just to give you a nibble, Dissident Teacher recommends:
- Find out what the “essential standards” are in your child’s class, i.e. which skills and what knowledge are most heavily emphasized.
- If the teacher assigns a reading outside the textbook, ask for an alternate, less-harmful reading, or one that balances the author’s viewpoint. Delay turning in any work until you get the new resource.
Even if you're sending your child to a private school, some of these tips can help you.
You MUST be involved in your children's education, every step of the way. Don't go on autopilot and assume their teachers can handle everything. Stay involved!
