I pay these teachers with my tax money, so I should be able to observe their performance when ever I want.

The schools do not have conservatorship over parents & their children, 2nd these public servants are paid by the tax paying parents, they need to remember who they work for & that we are responsible for core values our kids live by, after all, parents are first to be blamed for their choices, right?

Max

The vote proves there are more conservatives working, than liberals.

Max

The schools do not own the children, nor do the schools pay child support. The schools work for the taxpayer, and should obey the taxpayer.

Opponents say such bills are an intrusion into public schools and seek to undermine the public education system.

Hitler took over the classrooms in Germany and you can see how that worked, Keep government out of schools

Max

That is why the parents should be involved, not the government. The Parents Bill of Rights is a good thing for everyone except Socialists and Communists.

Law enforcement needs to investigate all of these threats on social media. If the threat turns out to be not credible then serious fines need to be imposed. These kinds of threats are not a joking matter these days

Adam Schrader

It's a shame that this stupid time tok thing isn't being forced to shut down.

Brandi Lucas Henderson

It happens all too often these days to just completely dismiss it. I held my girls back in Ashland until I spoke to the school regarding rumors that had been circulating here. They went in just a bit late, bit we're still a bit on edge.

Social Media, manipulates those with small minds. So does CNN, and other MSM.

Larry Sabulsky

Tik Talk needs to be shut down. They are encouraging young people to commit violet crime and destroy public properties.

Most of the threats have not been credible. Local schools say the TikTok challenge had produced no local, specific threats as of Thursday evening.

But most K-12 school districts have kept snow days. Districts program extra days into the school calendar to plan for inclement weather.
