░░░░░░░░ for the people who ░░░░░░░░ us to this place ░░░░░░░░ the first in the ░░░░░░░░ place and to you ░░░░░░░░ a point to call ░░░░░░░░ school board and denver ░░░░░░░░ actually voted against

and the school ░░░░░░░░ that were caused by ░░░░░░░░ teachers unions and their ░░░░░░░░ allies have poured gasoline ░░░░░░░░ the fire of school ░░░░░░░░ Look at what just ░░░░░░░░ in Arizona They opened ░░░░░░░░ to a universal school ░░░░░░░░ for her Everyone in ░░░░░░░░ state and applications are ░░░░░░░░ the roof We re ░░░░░░░░ seeing folks and state ░░░░░░░░ low uncle education related ░░░░░░░░ west but there that ░░░░░░░░ where your superintendent of ░░░░░░░░ board Those are swinging ░░░░░░░░ conservatives at those who ░░░░░░░░ keeping schools open and ░░░░░░░░ schools to actual and ░░░░░░░░ actual purpose of really ░░░░░░░░ students Parents want their ░░░░░░░░ back to basics and ░░░░░░░░ are willing to take ░░░░░░░░ Wherever though those children ░░░░░░░░ best and they all ░░░░░░░░ the opportunity to do ░░░░░░░░ So school choice is ░░░░░░░░ the March I believe ░░░░░░░░ tries the unions might ░░░░░░░░ re just never going ░░░░░░░░ be able to stop ░░░░░░░░ not a great thing ░░░░░░░░ America s kids and ░░░░░░░░ Let you pick up ░░░░░░░░ know School choice was ░░░░░░░░ big factor and the ░░░░░░░░ term elections particularly with ░░░░░░░░ female voters As a ░░░░░░░░ of those school closures ░░░░░░░░ lot of parents had ░░░░░░░░ window into their children ░░░░░░░░ education and they realize ░░░░░░░░ not only a or ░░░░░░░░ not giving them the ░░░░░░░░ they desire to also ░░░░░░░░ children very different learning ░░░░░░░░ I have two children ░░░░░░░░ seven year old nine ░░░░░░░░ learn very differently They ░░░░░░░░ respond to different incentives ░░░░░░░░ and thought I think ░░░░░░░░ now realize that this ░░░░░░░░ size fits all system ░░░░░░░░ the public school and ░░░░░░░░ have been pushing for ░░░░░░░░ years is actually not ░░░░░░░░ great fit for a ░░░░░░░░ of people on so ░░░░░░░░ that think are exploring ░░░░░░░░ customization options but don ░░░░░░░░ close and we were ░░░░░░░░ think schools run the ░░░░░░░░ talking about closing schools ░░░░░░░░ of the pendant because ░░░░░░░░ the flu this year ░░░░░░░░ addition to coat and ░░░░░░░░ arse the and so ░░░░░░░░ think we know what ░░░░░░░░ coming we re fed ░░░░░░░░ with that we re ░░░░░░░░ going to be pushed ░░░░░░░░ anymore And I also ░░░░░░░░ to get both of ░░░░░░░░ reaction to this There ░░░░░░░░ a concerned parent that ░░░░░░░░ her fears and frustration ░░░░░░░░ school districts hiding gender ░░░░░░░░ education from parents Take ░░░░░░░░ listen to this We ░░░░░░░░ discovering that the what ░░░░░░░░ thought as the breakdown ░░░░░░░░ partnership between schools and ░░░░░░░░ Aaron has been going ░░░░░░░░ a lot longer than ░░░░░░░░ have known so it ░░░░░░░░ terrifying that there is ░░░░░░░░ an agenda to radicalize ░░░░░░░░ children and pull them ░░░░░░░░ from their parents to ░░░░░░░░ the family unit Until ░░░░░░░░ think that this is ░░░░░░░░ at a lot of ░░░░░░░░ where parents are saying ░░░░░░░░ they disagree with the ░░░░░░░░ or that it s ░░░░░░░░ introduced in a particular ░░░░░░░░ But then you have ░░░░░░░░ going behind a parents ░░░░░░░░ How would you describe ░░░░░░░░ s happening here This ░░░░░░░░ an attempt by the ░░░░░░░░ left to force gender ░░░░░░░░ on children and your ░░░░░░░░ into Excuse me your ░░░░░░░░ The role of parents ░░░░░░░░ the primary authority in ░░░░░░░░ lives of their children ░░░░░░░░ is absolutely ridiculous First ░░░░░░░░ the test scores are ░░░░░░░░ every minute that is ░░░░░░░░ on driving gender ideology ░░░░░░░░ them Lives of children ░░░░░░░░ a minute that is ░░░░░░░░ being spent on reading ░░░░░░░░
