Big Bob,
Critical thinking and facts are not all we should focus on. Ofcourse not, what’s the fun of that, right? But, to take facts and combine with applications, arts and play we ..
Question assumptions
Reason through logic &
Diversify thought

Let’s never underestimate music

Big Bob, Hi!

Thank you so much for reaching out with some really great questions.

The Bible has had the greatest impact on my life. It is the most copied book of antiquity. It has been translated into every language with surprising associations between culture that uses love and tolerance to bring people together. No matter my hardship, celebration or curiosity, there is a verse to be found that brings me growth with comfort. My favorite verse is Matthew 5:9. Check it out!

"A" family's belief system includes the values that members ascribe to and are reinforced "within the family". The goal of a "forced agenda" is to create stereotypes which can lead to oppression b/c students are being forced to accept "opinions", values, and actions while theirs's being disregarded. Let us respect our educators enough to not put them in that position. The teacher's job is hard enough with all the developmental issues we have created for them. Allow them to focus on academics for testing and giving a child an environment for conducive learning. Forced agendas in schools should not be tolerated. Their developing minds have enough to process. Children are not nourished the same as before. Most of our youth do not have the benefits of a nuclear family. Children are overstimulated and it is affecting our teacher's progress providing them very little support in the classroom. For children to stay focused on the results the educator needs for that child to retain the wealth of knowledge from their class curriculum used in testing. Since 1868, our nation has moved in a prosperous direction with civil rights. American Rights should not be treated as 'Opportunity Rights.' Seeing as public schools are the only opportunity most children have to succeed in life, not one valuable moment should be wasted on opinions and belief, but strictly remain truthful in data- driven factual information.

LBGT kids are the same as any other kid. It is not fair for a LBGT kid to be treated any differently than a straight kid. (I like the word child, but we will use 'kid' in re: to your questions) Intimate details of a child's sexual orientation should be treated as private and respected by all. As far as bullying, the policy is NO TOLERENCE. Every single child in Beaufort County Schools or any other school for that matter deserves dignity and to be treated equally whatever the sex, race or age.
