“We’re diagnosing boys with ADHD for acting like boys.”

Erica Komisar said this on Steven Bartlett’s Diary of a CEO. Little boys have a huge testosterone surge between ages 3��6. They need to run, jump, wrestle, and move constantly. Instead, we put them in classrooms that reward sitting still, regulating emotions, and being quiet — behaviors that come more naturally to girls. When they can’t, we label them as disordered.

Boys’ schools get this — they do short lessons then let the kids run around multiple times a day. Regular schools don’t.

It feels like we’ve built an education system that works better for one type of kid and then act surprised when the other type struggles or gets medicated.

These early labels follow boys for years and can damage their confidence and self-image long-term. We’re not letting boys be boys.

Do you think our school system is unfairly set up against how boys naturally learn and behave?

🟥 A student was convicted on NINE counts of groping underage girls inside Fairfax High School.
Fairfax County Public Schools hired a law firm to investigate itself — and the firm cleared the district. Then FCPS refused to release the report.

Parents whose daughters were assaulted say the district tried to sweep it under the rug. The federal government opened its own Title IX investigation in March. That probe is still open.

So here's where things stand:
🟥 Nine convictions. Twelve girls came forward.
🟥 FCPS investigated itself, cleared itself, and sealed the file.
🟥 The federal investigation it cannot control? Still ongoing.
🟥 The 12-member Fairfax County School Board — every one of them Democrat-endorsed — has not said a single public word about it.

Superintendent Michelle Reid answers to that School Board. They hired her. They set her budget. They are responsible for these schools. Their silence on this case is a choice.

School Board Chair Sandy Anderson has not called for the report's release. Not one of her colleagues has either.

Taxpayers paid for that review. They are not allowed to read it.

This is what one-party rule looks like when no one has to answer for anything. Every School Board seat is on the ballot in November 2027. These officials are counting on you to forget by then.

Don't forget. Share this with every Fairfax parent you know. 👇

WATCH: “We made an enormous mistake allowing the ed tech industry to come in and give every kid a computer, a tablet, an iPad, a Chromebook… and the results are devastating and we need to stop.” @JonHaidt via @andersoncooper @AC360

[Jen @jenteach13]

Nobody talks about the student who came ready to learn, sat through the disruption, said nothing, and fell further behind while every adult in the building focused on the one who made the most noise. She is still waiting for someone to notice she was there, too.

[Jen @jenteach13]

Your child's school has an assistant superintendent for curriculum, an assistant superintendent for instruction, a director of teaching and learning, and a coordinator of academic services. Your child's teacher has thirty-two kids and no copy paper. This is not a funding problem. It is a priority problem.

🚨 NOW: Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger is facing MASS CALLS to RESIGN after her sanctuary policies allowed an illegal alien R*PIST to be RELEASED only to go s*xually assault a woman in a staircase

"He was arrested on May 19 in Fairfax County on 5 charges, including a felony, but only 3 DAYS LATER he was back on the street and allegedly assaulted a woman." 🤯

THIS HAS TO STOP!!

"Police say he inappropriately approached a woman in a parking garage stairwell about 10 days ago. Another person was there to step in and help her and then he ran away before investigators found and arrested him three days later."

"Sanchez then went on to rack up charges for r*pe and s*xual assault."

Spanberger is a traitor! @ICEgov

My flight was being served by an obviously gay flight attendant, who seemed to put everyone in a good mood as he served us food and drinks. 🥰

As the plane prepared to descend, he came swishing down the aisle and told us that "Captain Marvey has asked me to announce that he'll be landing the big scary plane shortly, so lovely people, if you could just put your trays up, that would be super."

On his trip back up the aisle, he noticed this well-dressed and rather Arabic-looking woman hadn't moved a muscle.
"Perhaps you didn't hear me over those big brute engines but I asked you to raise your trazy-poo, so the main man can pitty-pat us on the ground."
She calmly turned her head and said, "In my country, I am called a Princess and I take orders from no one."

To which (I swear) the flight attendant replied, without missing a beat, "Well, sweet-cheeks, in my country I'm called a Queen, so I outrank you.
Tray-up, Bi*ch."

This American needs to lead the Department of Education

“This is my audition to become the head of the US Department of Education

- My first act of office will be immediately abolishing the No Child Left Behind Act. Yes, we will be leaving children behind. If they fail a class, they will have to repeat it

- My second act is one that I'm very passionate about. We will be bringing zeros back. If you don't know, in many schools in the US right now, students receive 40% or 50% if they do zero work, if they do not complete an assignment. And my school included, and many other schools, are not going to be allowed to give a student a 50% if they do not turn in any work. They will have to receive a zero.

Likewise, there will be no completion grades, If you just attempt an assignment, that doesn't mean you get a 55%. Like, if you get a 1 out of 10, you earned a 10% on that assignment, and that's okay. Sometimes failing happens, and we don't need to just inflate the grades just for fun. Grades will reflect students' actual performance and understanding of the content

- The third one I'm very excited for as well. Teacher evaluations will take place once a year and teachers will be observed by another current teacher from a different school. Teachers would volunteer to be evaluators. They would get a sub for the day, no questions asked, and then they would evaluate objectively. That way the person evaluating you does not know you and does not have any personal bias towards you. Hopefully.

- The fourth one, I think this should be common sense, but I hear that it happens all the time at some schools. Never at mine. But teachers shouldn't be expected to work for free. I hear elementary teachers are doing these before and after work things that they aren't getting paid for, like lunch duty or recess duty or pickup duty, whatever it is. The school needs those things covered.

People can volunteer for it, and then they have to get paid for it. They can't force you to cover other people's classes for free. They have to pay you extra if they're gonna take away your lunch or your prep or whatever time that is supposed to be yours and then force you to do something without getting paid. There will be no more voluntelling.

Hire this woman. The most important thing we need to do is hold students back and force them to learn the work. No more dumbing down out standards

[Glenn Beck @glennbeck]

Seriously, WHAT IS WRONG with the teachers unions and the Democratic Party? Because they seem to love putting kids in dangerous situations.

In Loudoun County, Virginia, a transgender identifying student filmed around 40 students under a bathroom stall at Freedom High School.

This isn’t the first time something like this has happened in Loudoun County. Remember the man who was arrested during a school board meeting for calling out the board when his daughter was assaulted by a trans identifying individual?

Now let’s go to Seattle, which is gone at this point. A public school teacher who is under investigation for allegations of physically abusing an autistic student is now likely to become the next president of the Seattle Education Association.

I’m all for good teachers, but I don't think I can trust anyone who is part of a teachers union anymore.

[Ian Prior @iandprior]

Which will be the next school district to be put front and center before @TheJusticeDept and @usedgov for keeping secrets from parents?

Stay tuned ….

🚨 JUST IN: Virginia Democrats and AG Jay Jones appealed *TO THE WRONG COURT* while trying to get the Supreme Court to help reinstate their 10D-1R gerrymandered map

Filing with SCOTUS, Jay Jones wrote to "Supreme Court of Virginia"

LMAO! You can't make this up 🤡

Their last filing ALSO had tons of spelling errors at the state level

These people are rushed, panicked, and incompetent!

This isn’t sustainable

[Bill Melugin @BillMelugin_]

BREAKING: @FoxNews is on scene in Portsmouth, VA where the FBI is raiding the office of Virginia Senate President Pro Tempore L Louise Lucas, a Democrat and close ally of VA Governor Spanberger. Fed law enforcement sources tell FOX this is in connection to a major corruption probe, and the FBI is serving multiple search warrants, approved by a federal judge, at her office and a next door cannabis dispensary. More to come with correspondent @AlexHoganTV, who reports that Lucas just showed up on scene as the FBI searches her office.

[C3 @C_3C_3]

Concerned parents are labeled as “fascists” by the Marxists.

How did schools become indoctrination hate camps?

Because of people like Randi Weingarten.

A childless Marxist and Teachers Union President.

Her salary is $560,000 per year to destroy America’s youth.

Sick.

“As soon as devices were introduced into classrooms around 2010 scores have been falling in reading, in math, basically around the world.”

“We have over a decade of research showing this experiment was a fail... Having students on devices harms their learning.”

[The🐰FOO @PolitiBunny]

You campaigned on making life more affordable.
You lied.

You signed off on a 280% pay raise for legislators.
You signed off on a new payroll tax hike.
You forced us back into RGGI.
And oh yeah, you turned Virginian against Virginian.

Glad I could clear this up.

[C3 @C_3C_3]

These are the Presidents of the largest 2 teachers unions…

Becky Pringle and Randi Weingarten.

Both are Marxists.

Both paid over $500,000 per year.

99% of donations from their unions go to Democrats.

They’re responsible for much of the destruction of public schools.

Sick.

[Matt Van Swol @mattvanswol]

I just got a phone call from my kid's school.

They have cancelled his classes for this Friday, May 1st so that school staff can go protest.

I'm so pissed.

Every parent I know is scrambling for childcare right now, trying to take off work, they have NO IDEA what they are going to do.

How does this happen?!

How can they just cancel school for my kid so they can play activist when they should be teaching him TO READ AND DO MATH?!

This may be our last straw...

Homeschooling feels inevitable at this point.

I'm so sick of this... I've been holding my toungue but I will do so no longer.

If you want to fix the public schools, you are going to have to do the hard things that NOTHING in this protest will do:

1) DEPORT ALL THE ILLEGAL ALIENS and funding per AMERICAN student will increase DRASTICALLY

How do I know?

Because when ICE came to Charlotte NC, guess how many kids didn't show up to school?

30,000 kids.

Yes, nearly 20% of ALL KIDS didn't show up to school because of ICE, so what does that tell you about how many illegal aliens we have going to our public schools in this country?

2) DRASTICALLY DEFUND THE ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF.

There are HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE in school administration in North Carolina right now making $200,000-$315,0000.

Guess what?

None of them are teachers.

Guess which positions in schools have grown in the past 10 years?

Number of students: 2.5% increase
Number of teachers: 2.2% increase
Number of administrators: 45% increase
Number of consultants: 107% increase

You want to pay teachers more?

Great, then you now know EXACTLY where to look.

Because the "middle-management" for North Carolina schools grew 20x FASTER than the student population, so there's a good place to start.

Sorry for the rant...

I've been patient.
I've been engaged.
I've gone to the meetings.
I've read the emails.
I've donated, a LOT.

I'm really close to just being done.

If the public school system thinks canceling class so the adults can go to a rally is acceptable, then the public school system has told me exactly what it values.

And it isn't my kid.
