Back to School Checklist for Concerned Parents

It’s Much More than Pencils, Backpacks, Lunchboxes

Know Your Rights as Parents

Public schools are increasingly being used as indoctrination centers rather than focusing on reading, writing, and mathematics. Progressive groups have made schools a testing ground for personal ideologies and elevated the education system as a shrine to social engineering, radical sex education and the promotion of gender identity.

As schools implement policies that are increasingly encroaching upon your parental rights, we want you to be equipped to be an advocate for yourself and your children.

As you buy the new pencils, take out the backpacks and fill the lunch boxes, you need to be equipped to face current school policies.  CRI has created a checklist and the questions to consider while reviewing your student’s textbooks and learning materials.

Back to School Checklist for Parents

  • Find out what they are teaching for sexual education.
  • Find out if they have vulgar or pornographic books in the library that are accessible to all students.
  • Find out if the school district requires teachers to attend LGBTQ, equity or diversity training.
  • Find out your rights regarding opting students out of controversial subjects.
  • Learn what clubs are active on your child’s school campus. Get on their email list. Follow their social media accounts.
  • Find out if your school has a student newspaper and subscribe. There are often announcements, op-eds, and advertisements in student newspapers concerning controversial matters on campus, such a LGBT club activity, etc.
  • Find out the school policy on restrooms, locker rooms, gender identity and overnight field trips.
  • Find out if your child can be released from school for confidential medical services without a parent’s knowledge.
  • Find out the school policy on parental notification when students socially transition their gender.
