According to the updated National Sex Education Standards, by the end of the 2nd grade, students will be expected to define “gender, gender identity, and gender-role stereotypes.” Students will also be expected to “discuss the range of ways people express their gender and how gender-role stereotypes may limit behavior.”
The author and activist with “a decade’s worth of expertise at being a ‘professional pervert,’” said a new teacher was impressed with how much the 3- to 5-year-olds in her class had imbibed radical gender ideology.
The university imposed mandatory vaccination for students and staff returning to on-campus learning. In an email sent to students, school leadership stated that approximately 600 students have yet to fulfill the vaccination mandates, or at least they have yet to upload a copy of their COVID-19 vaccination record.
The headline jumped out at me like a sore thumb:
“Colorado school district instructs teachers to avoid informing parents if their child shows persistent gender confusion”
Knowing that in an era of “revenue-by-click,” headlines can sometimes sensationalize reality in order to get attention amid a billion other flashy online user options, I did a little more investigating into the claim.
On this week’s episode of the Campus Countdown, Campus Reform reporter Ophelie Jacobson discusses the University of Hawaii’s recent decision to ban unvaccinated student athletes from playing sports at the school.
The decision was made by UH’s athletic department after consulting with a university medical committee. A university press release stated that “in addition to health and safety reasons, we want to avoid cancellations of games and practices due to exposures, isolation and quarantine.”

The school board of Newberg Public Schools in Oregon voted 4 to 3 Tuesday to prohibit Black Lives Matter (BLM), gay pride flags, and all other “political” items from classrooms. Now, Democrats in the state legislature are appealing the decision.
Last month, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommended masking for all students, faculty, staff and visitors in K-12 schools due to the spread of the Delta variant.
Originating in the mid-1970s, Critical Race Theory is liberal academic ideology which espouses that white supremacy “exists and maintains power through law.”
Within CRT theory, the term “whiteness”is defined as “specific dimensions of racism that serves to elevate white people over people of colour.”
It should be of no surprise that this form of prejudice against Anglo-European citizens is quietly working its way into Canadian universities. Nor should it appear shocking that our Liberal government has integrated critical race theory ideology into their training materials.
Democrats are always telling the American people that Republicans are only ever dreaming of ways to roll back civil rights and reinstate Jim Crow. From voter ID requirements to tax cuts, there is no issue that the Democrats won’t use to terrify their loyal voters into believing Republicans will be bringing back Jim Crow segregation the moment they have the power to do so. Democrat voters are the only thing standing in the way of a return to “separate but equal.”
The sad irony is that we are indeed returning to “separate but equal” but it is the progressive left that is taking us there, and all in the name of justice.
When Ontario’s top doctor said it’s time to “normalize” COVID-19 in schools Tuesday, Bronwen Alsop says she almost fell off her chair.
The mother of two young kids and founder of the Ontario Families Coalition has advocated for in-class learning to be maintained throughout the pandemic, even if a moderate number of cases are reported in the community.
A Virginia elementary school reportedly posted a video on its website, as part of a summer-learning guidance program, that suggested being near police makes people feel unsafe.
Following a wave of parent outrage at finding their children’s public schools pushing racism under the guise of antiracism this past school year, states have begun to ban the ideology. Parents are engaging with local school boards all across the country, demanding they stop teaching racial division and start educating children. The outrage is not just among Republicans, but also Independent and even Democrat voters, making Democrats nervous enough that the Biden administration recently pretended to backtrack.
One of history’s most valuable lessons is that much of what is widely believed at any one time will later be viewed as nonsense, and it is vanishingly unlikely that this does not still apply. On the contrary, our current system of education is now actively pursuing an indoctrination in postmodern thought which seeks to deny, demean and dismiss the all-too-brief ascendancy of reason and evidence as embodied in the scientific method. The impetus for this is simple. Reason and evidence threaten established careers, status and beliefs held dear in academia, and it is they who determine the content of education.

The Alberta NDP wants COVID-19 immunization clinics in schools when classes resume this fall to ensure more students get their second dose of vaccine as soon as possible.
Schools are safe to operate without strict COVID-19 protocols, according to the Ontario Science Table and researchers from SickKids Hospital.
In its report, the Science Table calls for a return of most activities in schools this fall and dropping mask mandates, social distancing and cohorting.
