Living in a blue state...I sure hope my local school board defies our Governor. Locals should have the last say on most things.

Insurrection.

Raid their homes.
Seize their bank accounts.
Jail them in solitary confinement.

Fairfax County and City of Alexandria school boards and city/county councils are 100% Marxists. Mostly government workers and politicians living there.

This is the letter that was just e-mailed to all parents from the Superintendent of FCPS.

September 18, 2022

Dear FCPS Families,

On Friday evening, we became aware of a new proposed model policy from the Virginia Department of Education regarding the privacy, dignity, and respect for all students, staff, and families in Virginia’s public schools. The newly proposed model policy is scheduled for a 30-day public comment period starting September 26.

I understand the concerns that our LGBTQIA+ staff, student, and family community have about what this change of direction by the state may mean for our school division. Please be assured that FCPS remains committed to an inclusive learning environment for each and every student and staff member and that our schools will continue to be safe and respectful learning spaces.

Here at Fairfax County Public Schools, we are dedicated to providing a caring climate and culture where each and every student, staff member, and family is welcomed, respected, valued, and supported, as they experience a deep sense of belonging.

Our core beliefs and mission hold that:

Fairfax County Public Schools inspires and empowers students to meet high academic standards, lead healthy, ethical lives, and be responsible and innovative global citizens:

Each student is entitled to an excellent education that meets his or her individual needs.

Everyone thrives in a vibrant, healthful, safe, enriching, and respectful environment.

Our diversity is a strength that creates resilient, open, and innovative global citizens.

These core values and beliefs speak to the very heart of who we are at Fairfax County Public Schools, and our students, staff, and families, are counting on us to adhere to them. These core values - to enhance school safety and create a fair, equitable, and supportive school environment - are also outlined in the 2022-23 Student Rights and Responsibilities.

We will be thoroughly reviewing the new state proposed model policy in the coming days and will share a more detailed response to the newly proposed policy soon. In the meantime, we remain committed to maintaining equitable opportunities and access for each of our students, staff, and families in a justice-centered, future-focused, and student-driven school environment.

Warmest regards,

Dr. Michelle Reid
Superintendent
Fairfax County Public Schools

Yep; throw them in jail and keep them there due to being a danger to others.

Let them rot in jail (not prison) until their court date in a couple of years.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

Sounds like a good time to stop sending your kids to school, too.

>> Time for mass firing and incarceration

And that should be the most favorable consequences those scumbags confront.

Why not use anti-tobacco laws against the Boards? A type of active negligence or endangerment without consent?

Does the state have statutory power to vacate a school board’s authority and take over direct administration of a school system? Serious question.

This is where we find out what Youngkin and patriotic parents are made of...

Will they, as usual, just roll over and spread their legs?
OR
Will thousands of them take to the streets and demand their children back?

Virginia governors are very limited compared to the state legislature.
