Why?
Why should parents do this?
Parents: Do what ever is necessary to get your child out of the government madrasses!
The Massachusetts Supreme Court made several rulings. There were no grounds for appeal in federal court. However, if you believe he had a case, I would be willing to hear it.
Hehe good for you :)
No, but I’ll ping it in a minute.
Nanny ping.
And how long before they don’t allow opt out for medical things like HPV vaccines?

Any book of that sort sent home with my kids would be returned to the school post haste and delivered to the principal's office personally by me, and with feces smeared on the covers.
“Two families complained to the school district, which responded that the school district was not obligated to advise families about such matters, and would not allow parents to opt-out.”
Parents can’t opt-out? Who do you think pays your salaries? Even us with no kids support you and your ilk. Disgusting, just disgusting. All the children should bring their bibles to school and then see what happens, or, books about marriage between heterosexuals.
I would find out what day the state “counts” students at each school to determine funding, and KEEP MY KIDS HOME that day so they would not get counted and the school would not get the state money.
Whether we like it or not, the greater majority of children are going to be forced into government hands and the only option left is to try to deprogram them. You can fight the schools and the insanity that has become the teacher’s stock in trade, but odds are you’ll lose.
It’s easy to say Just Home School, but easy is often not reasonable.
In the end, you do what you can to just hold the line
In a totalitarian state your children are not yours.
I would guess that upwards of 80% of parents who care enough to spend two hours every night deprogramming their kids, could homeschool. Most parents are too lazy or disconnected to do either and are content to feed and cloth the next generation of the state’s children.
“It teaches children to ridicule their parents as well. “
I remember I was about that age (I’m 40 now) and my school had a big thing about your parents smoking. I went on a tear and berated them, hid their cigs, flushed them, you name it. convinced that my parents were ignorant and Thank God the school had enlightened me. What a sucker I was.
Oh my! How can you show such a shocking picture? Nationalism, war, guns, violence - this should be banned in all schools!
I thought the 1st amendment created a wall between church and state? Sounds like there is a religion of sorts being taught in government schools.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The government religion is Marxism and Secular Humanism.
By the way, of course the government is teaching a religion. Why? Answer: Because it is impossible to have a religiously neutral education. It is axiomatic.
Parents by and large are involved in school boards that make these decisions. The teachers are straight our socialists and worse.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Who do you think has the power, money, and organization to get its people elected to the school board? Answers: The teachers’ union, which, by the way, is run by teachers.
If schools are a mess, why are teachers cooperating? No one is holding a gun to their head, as they open the doors to the Marxist madrasses every day.
Who’s got the “another reason to homeschool” list. I keep forgetting.
