The Prison We Don’t Know We Are In

Let’s get to the root of the problem. When school personnel or school boards disrespect parents, they are teaching children to disrespect their parents. That goes against the very nature of mankind. It is destroying the health of our society physically, mentally, emotionally, socially, spiritually, financially… The ONLY reason for schools to exist is so parents have people they approve of to come alongside to assist them in educating their children. Everything educators from outside the home do should be at the request and under supervision of the parents. What we have going on now completely goes against nature and nature’s God.

Marxism is a religion that intends to destroy families so that people can be oppressed into slavery. Schools are collecting data on your family to control people. It has NOTHING to do with education. Do not submit. It is way past time to turn the tables. You collect information on them. Ask personally intrusive questions about everyone in your child’s circle from the producers of the curriculum and library books, to everyone in administration, to every person in your child’s building.

They work you for you! Would you hire them to mentor your children?

Whenever you look to government to solve a family issue, you are participating in Marxism. Marxists naturally disrespect parents. Currently, government schools want to educate, give spiritual guidance, transport, feed, entertain, counsel, and provide health care to your child. Then if you have an issue, there will be parent training available. You are surrendering your inalienable rights and the rights of your future generations. You are confining yourself to prison.

We all have different life stories and a plethora of life situations. Don’t focus on the obstacles; focus on the solutions. If something has been done before, that proves it can be done. If something has never been done before but you’re thinking about it, it may be you who breaks that glass ceiling. So consider only HOW to solve the problem for your family or for several families. It isn’t going to be by bowing before the school boards to beg them to stop abusing your children. If that’s who they are, they will never be good for your child’s education.

We often hear that there is no solution for working parents. We also hear from other working parents – single or married – that make private school or home school work. One of those who made the leap may have a solution for you. Let’s open up communication for an exchange of ideas! There are some great teachers out there now who recently retired because they see what we see as unacceptable. Churches should be concerned enough to open their doors. Let’s work on that one.

Bottom line, public schools as we know them must become obsolete. Government sponsored education is spiraling downward and the disrespect for parents and downright indecency is through the roof. Public school children are intentionally being confused and confounded. Counselors are being trained to divide children from parents. Some children even come to school dressed as animals. That has been going on for years IN OKLAHOMA! Mental illness is being promoted. The plug has been pulled; it is going down the drain. Pull your children out of the vortex. God first, family second, government…well, take a hike. Stay tuned for ideas and solutions and connections for greater possibilities for real education!

Six Reasons OKC Residents Should VOTE NO On BOTH OKC Public Schools Bond Issues

Tomorrow (Tuesday, 11/8/22), Oklahoma City voters will go to the polls.  After voting for numerous candidates, OKC voters will have TWO PROPOSITIONS on which to vote to provide OKC Public Schools numerous opportunities for spending their property taxes.

Let’s look at the reasons to VOTE NO:

1. This bond initiative will SUBSTANTIALLY increase property taxes on Oklahoma City residents.  The Oklahoman says the issue would “raise the district’s mill levy to $26 for every $1,000 of assessed property value”.  This means if you own a house assessed at 175,000, your property taxes per year would be $4,550.  What will this do to the elderly and those on fixed incomes?

2. Oklahoma City Public Schools has HORRIBLE scores overall.  Let’s look at just a few of these (which you can verify here):

  • Britton Elementary: 90% BELOW GRADE LEVEL in English – 97% BELOW GRADE LEVEL in Math (demographics: 6.6% Caucasian, 41% Black, .5% Asian, 46.4% Hispanic
  • Quail Creek Elementary: 64% BELOW GRADE LEVEL in English – 75% BELOW GRADE LEVEL in Math (demographics: 44% Caucasian, 29.4% Black, 2.3% Asian, 10.3% Hispanic)
  • Bodine Elementary: 89% BELOW GRADE LEVEL in English – 93% BELOW GRADE LEVEL in Math (demographics: 13.3% Caucasian, 43.9% Black, 0% Asian, 29.6% Hispanic, 4.2% Native American
  • Cesar Chavez Elementary: 94% BELOW GRADE LEVEL in English – 95% BELOW GRADE LEVEL in Math – 95% BELOW GRADE LEVEL in Math (demographics: 8.3% Caucasian, 5.3% Black, .4% Asian, 81.9% Hispanic, 1.8% Native American

These scores mean that the students in these schools are essentially NOT BEING EDUCATED AT ALL.  Why in the world should anyone reward OKCPS for NOT DOING THEIR JOB in the first place.

3. If you are a renter, you do not directly pay property tax, but the company/organization/person who owns the building in which you live does.  How can the owners NOT pass such a significant property tax increase on to their tenets.

4. OKCPS Superintendent Sean McDaniel – who broke SB658 which prevented school boards from requiring masks – asked the Board to FIRE five teachers last year for following the law and NOT wearing masks while teaching.

5. Superintendent McDaniel also spoke out against the passage of HB1775, saying, “HB1775 is a solution looking for a problem that doesn’t exist.”  After passage of the bill, the entire eight member OKCPS School Board voted to FORMALLY DENOUNCE THE BILL.

6. This year – as in previous years since 2017 – OKCPS participated in the OKC Pride Alliance Parade WITH A TAXPAYER-FUNDED SCHOOL BUS.

OKCPS does not in any way exemplify – or even typify – a functional, taxpayer-supported, educational institution; they are – like so many public schools – a system of government-supported indoctrination centers serving to spread the ‘woke’ infection.

OKCSPS DOES NOT DESERVE ANY MORE HARD-EARNED PROPERTY TAX DOLLARS FROM OKLAHOMA CITY RESIDENTS. 

VOTE NO ON BOTH OKCPS BOND PROPOSITIONS!

The Empress (Joy Hofmeister) Has No Clothes

Guest Post by Don Krumme, Stop Common Core in Oklahoma

Around 10 years ago, Bill Gates and other liberal and conservative elites, Corporate America, and Federal and Local elected officials, began to implement an educational scheme known as “Common Core”, whose goal was to radically indoctrinate our children by lowering expectations, dumb down education, even the playing field for all, and create a class of workers that couldn’t think for themselves. In essence, it was ObamaCare for Education and we knew it. 

Many of us from all walks of life across the USA banded together to expose Common Core for what it was, and formed a formidable nationwide coalition. @Retain Oklahoma Parental Empowerment and @Stop Common Core in Oklahoma joined in to spread the word on Facebook. 

In 2013 Oklahoma State School Superintendent Janet Baressi came up for re-election, and Joy Hofmeister challenged her. Not fond of Baressi, many of us got behind Hofmeister after she reassured us that she would not support Common Core.  This was a big mistake.

Naturally, this all changed during the fight for new, non-Common Core, state standards when we were deceived by Hofmeister so they could usher in shiny new “non-Common Core” Common Core standards, leaving us once again to fight our State Superintendent. 

We learned then and there what an expert manipulator she was, and she had a real knack for twisting the facts. We were there. Do not fall for her story. She will not help our state in any form or fashion. DO NOT vote for Joy Hofmeister.

The Empress has no clothes.

HELP! For Which Judges Should I Vote?

Several judges are up for election on November 8th. Often, people simply vote to retain or don’t vote because they don’t know how to get information to cast an INFORMED vote for judges on the ballot in Oklahoma.

Fortunately several Oklahoma bloggers have compiled some really great information on Oklahoma judges, so I refuse to re-invent the wheel.

Michael Bates of Batesline has very interesting information on judges. I’ve taken a screenshot of the upshot of his blog in the event you’re feeling lazy and don’t want to read the whole blog. (PLEASE DO, HOWEVER. WE NEED TO SUPPORT OKLAHOMA RESEARCHERS AND BLOGGERS!)



Another Oklahoma blogger, Jamison Faught of Muskogee Politico has released not one, but TWO blogs on the topic. Again, I’ve screenshotted his picks, but again, PLEASE VISIT HIS BLOGS.



The one thing I appreciated Michael bringing into the mix is Judge Barbara Swinton’s term on the Seeworth Academy Board during the time that their superintendent was embezzling taxpayer funds. I cannot vote for this woman specifically for that reason.

Now, if you simply can’t take anyone’s word for anything, check out this great website – Courtfacts.org. They have a comprehensive listing of Oklahoma judges on the ballot and information about their backgrounds. This is another source from which you can become more educated, but you can also go to Ballotpedia.org and look at the (bare minimal) information they have on Oklahoma judges.

PLEASE, these positions are much too important to leave blank. READ UP ON THESE JUDGES AND VOTE, NOVEMBER 8th!
