Are you sending your children to school or to a biased political forum?
The Oregon School District recently held a mandatory assembly through the Social Studies classes. Our children were told it was going to be on voting history and the importance of voting. It went way beyond that. Beth Cox, a judge here in Oregon, spoke directly to our children about a big political issue as well. She gave a very pressured speech with leading statements about the importance of dropping all voter ID at the toll booths.
We feel Beth Cox has used her position in our community to her political advantage. She has also chosen an opportune time to do it with the elections right around the corner. Beth Cox, our public servant, is supposed to be a person we can trust to be just and fair. She deliberately targeted the most inexperienced, receptive voters, our children. This is unacceptable, immoral, irresponsible behavior.
Why didn’t our teachers and staff stop this biased platform? Are they aware of the material that is being taught to our children? Where is the responsibility on the part of the Oregon School District to protect and ensure an unbiased, safe, environment for all of our learners?
