Thanks for a well reasoned response.Where did you teach Rico Suave?? I taught for 24 years in elementary school. Now here is what has happened since the far right basket cases have implemented since they took over my district's school board:
They love to ban books. Kindergarten teachers...1st grade teachers( and all the classroom teachers (2-4) have had to enter every book in their classroom libraries ( think like Bernstein bears/ Dr Seuss/ any book from scholastic...) you know books kids read when they are learning howto read, teachers had to scan books and create a database and find book reviews on all of these books for students who are just learning to read and submit this to the school board. Do you have any idea how many books are in a kindergarten classroom library?? Easily over 1000.
One of the bright moves that the maga school board implemented at one of our middle schools was to ban a book that was the biography of the namesake of the school itself. Dawson Middle School ( Carroll ISD/Southlake, Texas). Dawson was named after George Dawson. A black man who grew up in Dallas and learned to read when he was 98. Amazing story about an amazing man. He grew up in the Jim Crow days and when he was young, a friend of his was lynched ( accused of raping a white girl...later found to innocent...you know Like Emmit Till) well that school board decided that the book is to violent for 7th & 8th graders...eben though it had been a tradition for the students to read since the school opened. Solid bold move maga folk.
Scholastic news is now banned in all of the Carroll Schools because one of the maga school members. She thought it was pushing a leftist idiology ....great move maga folk

It's because of this program. I don't know a lot about it because it started after I retired.

Like I said, I really don't know because I retired before it was implemented.
Sounds like that local school board has the children's best interests in mind, I would hope it spreads to the rest of America. You're fortunate to teach in such a learning environment.Where did you teach Rico Suave?? I taught for 24 years in elementary school.

How would YOU know Rico if the kid’s best interests were being served? It’s the parents who interests are being served here in many of these districts….NOT the child’s! The parents are the ones choosing the curriculums and the text books and the research materials that are being made available to those who are charged with learning.
Is the purpose of raising a child to replace their parents or is it to move society forward in a positive direction?
Woker indoctrination is not in the child's best interest. If you disagree, I feel sorry for any children you have or had responsibility for.
Can you tell me what you just said? I haven’t been in the street for the past 50 years or so.
“Woke indictrination” specifically..you MAGAts got a lingo only you seem to understand…
This guy believes what Terry Mccullugh (sp?) said out loud when running for Governor of Virginia. He said it’s none of the parents business what their kids are being taught in the government run schools. This lost him the race. First time I’ve heard a Democrat politician be honest when campaigning. He thought this would endear him to the large amount of Democrats in and around DC enough to offset pissing off the rest of the voters, and win. Miscalculation.
Can you please explain in your own words for me? “Cancel culture” confuses me too. I guess I just don’t have your depth, Rico.
So you are saying that a child’s education and ability to think critically is NOT the public schoools job but the schools #1 job is to educate the community’s kids to think as their parents think? Right? Truth be damned.
Really?

Truth?? Maybe your schools wouldn’t be feeling heat if you stuck to teaching reading, writing, arithmetic instead of your socialist dictatorship politics and hatred of our country. Parents do have a right to know what kind of indoctrination their young children are being subjected to. They’re our kids not yours, we have a right to influence how they are being raised more than left wing government institutions (public schools). Our kids scores in actual academic disciplines are plummeting fast because teachers are so obsessed with teaching them left wing politics instead of thing that matter in the real world. The reason public school teachers fight vouchers is because you’re afraid of competition. People can take their voucher to your public schools still if they want. Welcome to the real world of competition, were you have to deliver results at a fair price to succeed, instead of having your monopoly on “education “.
