TAKE BACK YOUR SCHOOLS

In general, public schools follow guidance from the CDC as well as state & county public health department mandates and restrictions. This means that the way must be cleared at a state and local level for schools to be unshackled. However, teachers unions also play a huge role in determining the climate in schools, regardless of COVID.

There are a range of options available for taking back your schools:

 

  • FILE FOR AN EXEMPTION

    Click HERE for Exemption Resources

 

  • REQUEST AN IEP OR 504 PLAN FOR YOUR CHILD – If your child struggles to breathe, think, concentrate, concentrate or suffers emotional while wearing a mask, suffers from adverse reactions such as headaches, etc. or has difficulty hearing or communicating with others while wearing a mask, then this is an option. The 504 Plan is a plan developed to ensure that a child who has a disability identified under the law and is attending an elementary or secondary educational institution receives accommodations that will ensure their academic success and access to the learning environment.

 

  • Educators are required by law to meet with you as a parent to discuss accommodations. They cannot deny you a meeting or accommodation! Learn more about IEP and 504 Plans from Freedom Angels.

 

  • FORM A PRIVATE EDUCATION ASSOCIATION (PEA)

    • Get out from under statutes regulating schools that operate in the public domain – a PEA is like a PMA (Private Membership Association) where all members assume certain risks & abide by agreed upon rules. Learn more HERE.

 

  • RUN FOR SCHOOL BOARD
