Virginia teacher resigns at school board meeting, denounces 'highly politicized agendas'
A Loudoun County Public Schools (LCPS) teacher in Virginia resigned in front of the school board Tuesday, stating in a defiant and emotional speech that she refused to continue pushing their "highly politicized agendas."
"Within the last year, I was in one of my so-called equity trainings that White, Christian, able-bodied females currently have the power in our schools and ‘this has to change,’" teacher Laura Morris said during the public comment period of the board meeting.
"Clearly, you've made your point. You no longer value me or many other teachers you've employed in this county. So since my contract outlines the power that you have over my employment in Loudoun County Public Schools, I thought it necessary to resign in front of you."
A woman who says she's a Loudoun County teacher just broke into tears addressing the school board saying she would not honor the transgender pronoun policy because of her faith and she told the board she was quitting her job, right there on the spot.
"School board, I quit," she said. Choking up, she added: "I quit your policies, I quit your training, and I quit being a cog in a machine that tells me to push highly politicized agendas to our most vulnerable constituents – children."
Morris, a fifth-grade teacher, also alleged that the county told her not to express dissenting views.

I can no longer say this is the land of the free...
or that I love my country...
I do not have faith in the leaders of this country
And I'm sick of all the corruption among the so called "elected" leaders...

I'm sure at one point the Church didn't want teachers teaching that the Earth went around the Sun. There's always an agenda.
But if FACTS are being taught, so be it. Not everyone like facts. Especially Republicans. They like conjecture and opinion.
Besides, do we really want quitters as teachers?

The school boards and teacher's unions are infested with petty tyrants and communists. The one thing that they need though is a head count in their class rooms. Deny them that and they will lose funding, and boy do commies hate to lose their grip on the money they are provided. They'll never change either, so enrollment will never bounce back once you take the students from them for being what they really are, communist tyrants.
This is "opinion" of course, and any proof offered will be hard to prove on anything but an individual basis with specific examples of how these boards rule on certain issues like CRT, sexual choice and race issues. Something I rather not look into as it seems obvious to me and likely many teachers as well. If any teacher were to voice their opinion on the direction of the school board they'd be fired. Parents will not be able to voice their opinions at board meetings either as they will get escorted out and/or the meeting will be conducted in private afterward.
Take you children out of the public school system and they will have less minds to influence with their communist agenda, less money to work with, and less power over the lives of teachers, parents and students.

Good for her, I guess she didn't have the same stance towards religion, which in my opinion has become as much, a" highly politicised agenda".
