PUBLIC SCHOOL
If you choose to remain in the public school system, we are here to fully support you in prayer.​
Here are some things we would recommend:
-
Be ALL in (volunteer, coach or get a job inside the school).
-
Get to know your children's friends and their families.
-
Open conversation with your kids - intentionally!
-
Review the school curricula.
-
Ask your children’s teachers, principal, and school administration - what curriculum they are using for Health Education, SEL, etc. Remember the terms these curriculum are often hidden under. Ask for a copy of the teaching materials. ​
-
Parents can review any curricula used at school because of Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment (PPRA), 20 U.S.C 1232h, passed in 1974, updated in 2022.
