Just pull the resource off Canvas so parents cannot see it \u2026<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Keep teaching! Just don\u2019t make everything visible on Canvas. This is not being deceitful. This is just doing what you have done for years. Prior to the pandemic you didn\u2019t send everything home or have it available. You taught in your classroom and things were peachy keen. We are going old-school. \u2026<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>You could Duplicate an entry\/lesson in Canvas (making 2 copies) Publish ONE for the whole class that is a LEAN version of the lesson. The \u201coriginal\u201d that has all the stuff on it, can be published and only assigned to specific students (IF NEEDED), OR you could specifically email those students a copy of what they need.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The reason I say \u201cmake a copy\u201d You can publish the NEW one that has less information on it. Then for that kid who is all virtual and needs to full lesson, you can publish it and assign it ONLY that kid\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Anything that \u201ccould\u201d be picked apart I would suggest using this above approach\u2026 Again I wouldn\u2019t throw it out, but you could just not give them access to the story.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>When you get to Power Imbalances \u2013 You might remove the two examples and just go over them in class (same as above). \u2026<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I hate that we are even having to have this conversation. 29 days and counting!<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>She referred to a \u201ccell\u201d of parents and claimed they did not know the difference between a small-d democratic country and the Democratic Party.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to serving as a school administrator in Rockwood, in 2018 Fallert was elected to the school board of a nearby school district, Jefferson R-7, illustrating the way in which apathetic voters often elect those whose interests are with teachers, rather than parents, in little-scrutinized school board races.<\/p>\n<p>Shelley Willott, assistant superintendent of learning and support services, expressed \u201cregret\u201d to parents after they found out about the secret email:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYesterday an email was sent to middle and high school English Language Arts teachers from a district-level staff member that suggested teachers hide or alter content visible to parents in our learning management system. We want to assure you that the message was not reviewed or approved by anyone before it was sent. Asking teachers to conceal anything from parents does not reflect the mission, vision and values of the Rockwood School District and is counter to the goals set forth in our strategic plan, The Way Forward,\u201d she wrote.<\/p>\n<p>The April 23 message said that the school district views parents as \u201callies\u201d in the education of \u201cour children.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe regret that this happened for many reasons, but mostly because it impacts the trust that is crucial for our partnership to be successful. Although we cannot share specifics related to a personnel matter, we can assure you that we find the email unacceptable, and it is certainly being addressed,\u201d the message said.<\/p>\n<p>The Daily Wire asked spokesman David Morrison what actions the district would be taking to demonstrate its commitment to parents and transparency. It asked if the school district would commit to posting classroom materials online even after coronavirus-triggered distance learning ended \u2014 since the technology is set up \u2014 rather than reverting to what Fallert called the \u201cold-school\u201d way when everything was \u201cpeachy keen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Daily Wire also asked for copies of the curriculum to which parents objected, pursuant to the school district\u2019s professed newfound commitment to transparency.<\/p>\n<p>Morrison did not respond.<\/p>\n<p>Rockwood school district encompasses 20,000 students across overwhelmingly white towns west of St. Louis, including Ballwin, Chesterfield, Wildwood, and the town of Fenton, which has 15 black people, or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rsdmo.org\/discover\/bythenumbers\/Pages\/Rockwood-Demographics.aspx\">0.3%<\/a> of the population.<\/p>\n<p>It includes four high schools, all of which were ranked among the top 20 in Missouri by US News &#038; World Report. It is currently searching for a new interim superintendent.<\/p>\n<p>The criticized curriculum included elements like \u201cIntersectionality 101,\u201d a video produced by Learning for Justice (formerly Teaching Tolerance), a project of the Southern Poverty Law Center.<\/p>\n<p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Intersectionality 101\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/w6dnj2IyYjE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/p>\n<p>One reading sheet handed out to a fifth-grade class teaches that \u201cMichael Brown was murdered just steps from his mother\u2019s home in Ferguson, Missouri.\u201d Officer Darren Wilson was not charged with any wrongdoing. \u201cDisruption is the new world order. It is the way in which those who are denied power access power,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n<p>Missouri \u2018s governor, Mike Parson, is Republican, but the state\u2019s schools have been thoroughly colonized by \u201cequity\u201d consultants.<\/p>\n<p>One firm alone, Education Equity Consultants (EEC), says it has at least <a href=\"http:\/\/eec4justice.com\/clients\/\">30 clients<\/a> in the state, including the state education office, the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education, and the Missouri School Boards Association.
