What is going on at Murdock Elementary?

Our contributors have been made aware of the fight for parental rights at Murdock Elementary. So what is happening? Well, a lot actually. The parents have been activated like never before. They are organized and working together to find solutions. Many parents in the upper grades (specifically 5th grade) were upset by the lack of transparency when it came to the curriculum that was being taught and introduced the first week of school. The subject matter was an "about me" type assignment. However, the questions were seen as invasive especially after a teacher(s) decided to let the students know that they can change anything about themselves. Some of the topics that could change were: name and gender. The parents would want to be informed at the very least of this instruction. Parents have organized and have hosted successful zoom meetings, had a no show day at school, and plan to speak at their board meeting on Tuesday, September 12th.

These parents are smart, strong, and united.
