If you are a parent, do you think of yourself as an “extremist”?
There are those in the Texas State Teachers Association, the oldest teacher union in the state, who would see you as one.
Those in power in the public school system are growing more resentful of parents seeing what is going on behind closed doors. They want to be able to teach any topics from any curriculum to students however and whenever they choose, even if parents view it as objectionable or explicit.
Parents are standing up more and more. We want to stand up with them!
Let’s continue to keep a diligent eye on the politics of the moment as we work to keep parents the number one authority for their own families.
There is an ongoing debate in education between parents and teachers’ unions and school boards in Texas.
This debate has escalated as a result of a controversial policy debate at the Texas State Board of Education.
Parents across Texas and the country have awakened to the fact that controversial topics are being taught to their children. This fact has resulted in tense debates and protests at local school boards. A related controversy eruptedduring a recent consideration of new standards for a Social Studies curriculum.
Parental rights advocates argued that much of the proposed changes for curriculum standards would open the way for the teaching of controversial transgender and sexuality issues.
This kind of controversy is not uncommon when it comes to the State Board of Education and curriculum standards.
However, the outpouring of opposition from parents all over Texas was uncommon, and it resulted in the State Board of Education deciding to postpone its decision.

This chart is an easy reference guide to not only answer the questions your kids might be starting to ask in a God-honoring way, but can also give them confidence in conversations with their friends that are saturated in the current aggressive culture. Read on…
