Public schools and YOU: “Partners” in raising YOUR kids ???
I should hope not. But here’s alleged Republican Bob Levy, chairman of the Moore County Board of Education:
Neither the public schools nor the school board are “partners” of any kind in raising the community’s children. Raising kids is the job of parents.
I know that Hillary Clinton told us all that “it takes a village.” (But she’s bat-poop crazy.)
The schools are supposed to provide a valuable service. They’re not partners with mom and dad in child-rearing.
Maybe Levy misspoke. Maybe he got misquoted here. Misspeaking is hard to believe. Levy is a trained attorney, and those folks tend to be pretty good with words.
I sure hope this is not one more example of how badly we misjudged the conservative majority we thought we were electing just a few years ago.
Mmmmm that’s a big no Bob Levy if you actually meant was is quoted in this article. Raising children is 100% the responsibility and duty of parents. This notion of public schools partnering with parents to raise children is already a huge problem in many districts.
