@thereadingzone I saw this in a parent social media group and cringed. This does NOT support the partnerships between school and community that are crucial for forward growth. Instead, it creates chasms of mistrust. If relationships are the foundation of education, this ends it all.😞
@KCKalu5@thereadingzone Public school means teachers deal with the public. Why is it schools throw out homeschooling options and partnerships when someone disagrees with them. Tolerance except for those who challenge you.
@thereadingzone 1. Have a hearty chuckle
2. Respond, NO
3. If the school board insists then it has to go both ways. Educators get to send their own lists of 'requests' to parents.
4. This whole thing is ridiculous.
5. Home schooling is also an option.
6. Kids need sch & home to be in partnership
@thereadingzone What if you are a Literature teacher and you are teaching critiques which covers the LGBTQ literature and Gender biases in Literature. Are we not supposed to teach those now?
@thereadingzone Parents know that we already saw the inter-workings in their homes last year. In turn they saw us teach…what are they so worried about. I only hope that they are as concerned about their kid’s well-being and study habits.Parents need to stay in their lane.
@MLConklin@thereadingzone No, you need to understand that public education means dealing with the public. Local school districts under local governance.
@JustAlly@thereadingzone Their job is not teaching your kid. That is the difference. Parents absolutely have the right to know and voice an opinion on what you say to their child. That child is ultimately their responsibility, not yours. Teachers, including me, need to stay in their lane.
