[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did not realize we could opt out of SEL. My kids are in middle school but it seems like a giant waste of time. I would much rather have my kids have time to do homework, or not have homeroom at all and just spend more time in class.[/quote]

The point of homeroom is to build community and for kids to have consistent time with a trusted adult. For those who need that. It’s invaluable.[/quote]

I absolutely don't understand how the SEL lectures during advisory time/homeroom are building community. At DHMS, the kids sit there, listen to a lecture, and then are supposed to sit quietly and think about it. And, despite asking, the lessons aren't published anywhere. I second that idea that homework time would be much more useful. Or actual time to speak with their peers. Whatever SEL is supposed to be, surely what it actually is isn't it. [/quote]

That’s when they sneak in the CRT and other indoctrination. Someone alert Younkin.
