Homegrown Schools

It really is time to get our kids out of the public school system!

Have THEY lost their minds? Are THEY that stupid? This is Port Arthur ISD. They want students to wear MASKS in THEIR HOMES, during ONLINE instruction‼️

From a child development perspective this makes zero sense...

A virtual classroom creates a barrier that is not developmentally approprate for elementary aged students.

Masks create another barrier.

Children benefit from seeing facial expressions, as it develops their ability to infer emotion. Being able to read facial expressions accurately is an important skill that is developed in early elementary school aged children. It is important to social emotional development, but it is also a precursor to the academic skill of inferential reading. Basically, we must develop the social emotional skill to be able to develop the academic skill.

Why would Port Arthur ISD insist on creating additional barriers for students?

This is about COMPLIANCE. This is part of their FICTION.

The Public School System is the most liberal arm of our government, and they think they own our kids ! The sad truth is they are involved in the development of most of them. And, they want to develop our kids into compliant adults who DO NOT question authority.

As parents, when we comply with policies that are unnecessary, unreasonable, and damaging to our children, WE ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM.

As Texans, it is not just up to the parents. We are ALL stakeholders in our public school system--we pay the taxes that support them, whether our kids are in their schools or not.

Let's teach Port Arthur ISD a lesson on child development, and ask them why they want to create additional, unnecessary barriers to learning. At the same time, let's send them the message that they don't own Texas children.

This picture is taken from their page...give them a piece of your mind there.
