Our thinking influences our actions and for 16,000 hours a day our children are taught a perspective for life at school. Values are inherent in every subject matter as students learn what is and what is not important. Unfortunately, the values that inform curriculum today and the current way it is taught (pedagogy) is opposite to what we learned 50 years ago. As our Vice Principal Iton noted, curriculum is "informed" by Critical Race Theory. And this is the problem! The Progressive Left who owns the National School Unions has been quietly been replacing traditional curriculum with Critical Race Theory that boils down to socialist Marxism. The Oregon Department of Education has stated that they will not teach students to view one another as individuals but as members of an identity group. They say that standardized testing is founded in White Supremacy and that meritocracy (earning reward) is a myth. Unions and other organizations that sponsor education have been systematically changing vocabulary to hide the about-face direction in value. Equity doesn't mean equal opportunity. It means equal outcomes which is a losing proposition since students can only rise as high as the lowest common denominator.Yet, everything now must go through the Equity Lens! Safe and Welcoming actually means a moral-free zone because CRT believes at the heart that children have the right to sexual pleasure from birth and they have the right to all forms of information at all times. Their definition of "freedom" is free from rules. Free from accountability. Free from moral restraints. Anyone who dissents is banned, ridiculed, isolated, discredited. The traditional meaning of American freedom that prizes individual thought and self direction is squashed. This is why police are out and parents are increasingly pushed away from the table.   The outcomes of the resulting policies are self-incriminating. Plummeting proficiencies, lack of accountability, increasing violence and disrespect, inappropriate sexual matter, pornography available in school and public libraries, and teachers leaving en masse. The school environment is not safe emotionally or physically.

The Salem Keizer School Board meets every 2nd Tuesday at 6 pm. Currently all meetings are by zoom and this is unacceptable The Superintendent is in charge and it should be the school board. Please sign up to submit comments - the school board website has a link once the adgenda is released the Friday prior to the meeting at: https://salkeiz.k12.or.us/schoolboard/. Here is where we can make a public record of our concerns. If we don't speak up then the only voice in the room is the extreme left. They need to hear what YOU have to say. Please be respectful and address the issue, not the character of the person. On the 4th Tuesday they have a Business meeting that we can watch but they do not recieve public input. You can email the directors at any time but it is not part of the public record.

These are the candidates who line up with our values: --Zone 4 (South Salem) - Dr Satya Chandrigiri, an Indian Psychiatrist who is running for another term. He has taken so much abuse by the self proclaimed "Socialist Democrats" who are trying to completely sideline him and are thereby shutting out a whole section of the community that voted him in. We need to send a message that we support Dr Chandragiri and we welcome his balanced approach to education that brings opportunity for every child. https://www.satyaforschools.com ​ --Zone 2 (McKay) - Casity Troutt, Vice Chair of SK We Stand, small business co-owner, and chief petitioner of the Recall petition. She is getting all kinds of hate mail right now and yet bravely keeps standing up for excellence and opportunity. https://www.casityforschools.com ​ --Zone 6 (Keizer) - We found a conservative candidate, Krissy Hudson to run in this seat occupied by Robert Salazar who was appointed in Danielle Bethel's spot. Krissy is a parent and a public employee who works for the department of Justice Child Support Division. Krissy's priorities are transparency, building unity with all parties, and parental engagement. The way we think is the way that we behave. What we teach children and the values that rub off on to them is the MOST important battle of our lifetime!

The dangerous and destructive ideologies that have taken over schools comes from the National Unions. We need to defund them by OPTING out of the union dues as is your legal right by law. You can get superior professional liability insurance (twice the coverage for a fraction of the cost) from independent organizations. The Freedom Foundation helps & defends school employees to leave the union. Click on the picture to go to their website.

PRAY FOR THE SCHOOLS.png

Join us every Friday noon at First Baptist Church, 395 Marion Street NE, to PRAY for schools, teachers, students, administrators, parents, and issues. We start and end on time although sometimes we linger to talk... The atmosphere is informal but reverent and sincere. There is no pressure to pray out loud. We start with reading a scripture such as a Psalm. Then we spend time in worship, recognizing WHO God is, then confession so that our hearts are right, then requests are made in a popcorn fashion as the Spirit leads.
