WEINGARTEN IN THE NEWS AGAIN....

Shun Randi Weingarten as the monster she is
It’s a clear a case of putting the fox in charge of the henhouse as ever you’ll see: American Federation of Teachers honcho Randi Weingarten just got named to the Department of Homeland Security’s School Safety Advisory Committee.

This, immediately on the heels of fresh news about how badly school lockdowns cost America’s kids — lockdowns that Weingarten pushed relentlessly and all too successfully to extend.

Last week’s final release of National Assessment of Educational Progress results from 2022 — and NAEP is universally seen as the gold standard for measuring learning — showed that US 13-year-olds had lost decades of progress in reading and math.

Government Schools’ Trans Policies Aren’t Keeping Children Safe
By Gamaliel Isaac

In the week of June 12, 2023, the New York State Education Department (NYSED) published a document titled “Creating a Safe, Supportive, and Affirming School Environment for Transgender and Gender Expansive Students.” The document instructs teachers that if the student doesn’t want their parents to know that they are transitioning they should hide the information from them. The document gives a hypothetical example of a student with the legal name Kevin coming out as a transgender girl who asks teachers to call him Kimi but who wants teachers to still call “her” Kevin when talking to “her” parents. Teachers are instructed to do what Kevin wants in order to keep Kevin safe.

The authors of the document explain:

The paramount consideration in those situations is protecting the health and safety of the student, assuring that the student’s gender identity is affirmed and that their privacy and confidentiality are safely maintained.

The assumption the NYSED is making is that affirming students’ belief that they have a different gender identity than their biological sex, makes them safe and that parents who disagree with such students are heteronormative oppressors who make those students unsafe.  MORE AT Government Schools’ Trans Policies Aren’t Keeping Children Safe - American Thinker
