[quote=Anonymous]OP here. I’m having trouble articulating the nuance of what I’m asking about… as an example, I would very much welcome a study unit on BLM. And if it made my kid want to hang a sign on our door, great. But if they actually made the signs in class and encouraged the kids to hang them, I wouldn’t be thrilled. I also wouldn’t love it if a teacher took all the kids to a protest. Or if other kids turned on a student who asked a question about police POV.

If these sorts of things happened rarely, it wouldn’t be an issue. But if it was, say, a weekly occurrence, the school wouldn’t be a good fit for us. I guess I want DS to come into his own views naturally and gradually, as I was allowed to do. I assume those views will be left leaning but I don’t want to micromanage that.

From their media, I feel like I would be comfortable with sheridan’s approach, largely because they’ve been educating in this vein for a long time and aren’t just now hiring a dei consultant and adopting everything at once without regard to age and other factors.

I’m grateful for the firsthand account and eager to hear more. [/quote]
