Ending Masks in Schools – for starters

 


I am posting this from today’s Insanity Wrap in the hopes that some readers with kids in public schools will be inspired to tear a page from the AZ parents:

Insanity Wrap isn’t going to sugar-coat this one: It’s the greatest thing in the history of all things since we don’t know when.

Hundreds of parents showed up to the Vail School Board meeting to demand the board make masks optional. The board didn’t want to hear it so they walked out of the meeting before it even began. So the parents, under Robert’s Rules of Order, voted in a new school board. Then, the new members voted to end the mask requirement in Vail Schools.

The full 94-minute video of the entire thing is on YouTube.

Watching these parents using Robert’s Rules to vote themselves as board members in place of the runaway cowards is maybe the most delightfully American thing we’ve ever had the pleasure of seeing.

We earnestly hope this makes your day — week, year — as much as it did ours.

A local success story to punch back against Critical Race Theory

 

From our friends at Ohio Value Voters:

On March 6th we alerted you to mandatory Critical Race Training at Beachwood High School coming soon on March 11th.

Yesterday, on March 8th, in a packed school board meeting, outraged citizens held nothing back when they spoke to the Beachwood School Board.

Watch Jonathan Broadbent expose the school board of quietly changing policy that gives teachers a new right to "express their opinions" instead of the current policy that has been in existence since the beginning of the school system: WATCH HERE

The rest of the meeting grew in intensity as tax-payers and parents spoke truth to power in the following block-buster school board meeting video: MUST WATCH VIDEO

Below is our Email from March 6th

A group of parents in Beachwood Ohio are recommending that all parents keep their children home on 3/11/21 or otherwise remove their children from upcoming "mandatory" Critical Race Training. Every study including "1776 Unites" shows that "Critical Race Theory" leads to MORE racism and division.

Parents are urged to attend the Beachwood Board of Education meeting on March 8, 2021 at 7:00 p.m. to voice your concern regarding this mandatory training.  

The Beachwood Board of Education meets in regularly scheduled meetings on the second and fourth Monday of each month at 7:00 pm, in the Fairmount Community Room, 24601 Fairmount Boulevard, Beachwood, Ohio. 44122 phone: (216) 464-2600

What is Critical Race Theory?

A good example of local citizen involvement.

Passing a Resolution with an Unwilling School Board

Common Core: an update

Ohio Tea Party Patriots Co-cordinator Marianne Gasieki is sharing a Richland County success story and seeking participation in a statewide survey:

Passing a Resolution with an Unwilling School Board
Raising a Unified Voice
As some of you are aware, Marianne was elected to the Ontario School Board November 2013:
I was elected due to my vocal opposition to Common Core, as I had been attending meetings and questioning the board regarding Common Core for over a year.
Unfortunately, unlike the Garaway school district, the Ontario school district did not have a Board unified in their opposition to Common Core, so it was necessary to create a ground swell from concerned parents.
As a Board member, I couldn't be seen as actively involved in the movement, but was able to find a few key people who made it happen.
A petition was created, and within a matter of weeks, over 300 signatures were obtained.  These people took the petitions to soccer games, parent teacher conferences, anywhere there would be community gatherings. Click Here for a Copy of the Petition.
Copies of the petitions were sent to each Board member with a cover letter. Click Here to Read the Cover Letter.
At the December board meeting, our resolution opposing Common Core was passed.
It is important to note that although it looks like we were able to do this quickly, it took the action of parents coming to board meetings over multiple months, and clearly stating their issue with CC.  It took people working in the community, writing letters to the editor, posting yard signs around the school and educating their neighbors.  But it can be done!
If you would like to share your success story, please forward it to me and I will try to compile them so they accompany the survey results.

If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to contact Marianne at the Mansfield Tea Party at mansfieldteaparty@gmail.com. 
These resolutions and efforts are important, especially since Gov. John Kasich is opposing repeal of CC. Read the latest from The Blaze here
