Every child has the right to an education best suited to them, and every parent has the right – and duty – to provide such an education. ROPE 2.0 seeks to help equip parents with the information necessary to best champion their child’s educational needs.Jenni L.

She ended her career after going to her superiors only to be told that sure, she could work on developing a way to communicate with families better, but that "white sorority girls were no longer needed in health care".</span></span></div><div><span style="background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.05); color: #131313; white-space-collapse: preserve;"><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.05); color: #131313; white-space-collapse: preserve;"><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;">Find the full video on YouTube </span></span><span style="color: #131313; font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SeegRcummoU">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SeegRcummoU</a></span></span></div><div><span style="color: #131313; font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="color: #131313; font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;">and Rumble <a href="https://rumble.com/v4gho4b-rope-report-live-mic-rosado-rally-for-medical-freedom.html">https://rumble.com/v4gho4b-rope-report-live-mic-rosado-rally-for-medical-freedom.html</a></span></div><div class="blogger-post-footer">This blog originates from ROPE2: <a href="http://reclaimoklahomaparentempowerment.blogspot.com"target="_blank">http://reclaimoklahomaparentempowerment.blogspot.com</a></div>Jenni L.

If it's unobscured sex as in a pornographic film - NO, EPS DOESN'T have 'porn' in their libraries. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;">If it's written material that graphically describes a boy being raped by another older boy - YES, EPS DOES have 'porn' in their libraries. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;">Would you want your Sophomore being read the word "c<a href="https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/nt">#nt</a>" in class? What about a minor Sophomore student reading the following passage? </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;">“I felt Stanley’s hand creeping onto my thigh. I looked at him, but he was staring at the Hee Haw Honeys so intently that I couldn’t be sure he was doing it on purpose, so I knocked his hand away without saying anything. A few minutes later, the hand came creeping back. I looked down and saw that Uncle Stanley’s pants were unzipped and he was playing with himself. I felt like hitting him, but I was afraid I’d get in trouble the way Lori had after punching Erma, so I hurried out to Mom. ‘Mom, Uncle Stanley is behaving inappropriately,’ I said. ‘Oh, you’re probably imagining it,’ she said. ‘He groped me! And he’s wanking off!’ Mom cocked her head and looked concerned. ‘Poor Stanley,’ she said. ‘He’s so lonely.’”</span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;">Or this? “Assef knelt behind Hassan, put his hands on Hassan’s hips and lifted his bare buttocks. He kept one hand on Hassan’s back and undid his own belt buckle with his free hand. He unzipped his jeans. Dropped his underwear. He positioned himself behind Hassan. Hassan didn’t struggle. Didn’t even whimper.” </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;">What if the teacher read this passage in class? “He handed his cigarette to the guy next to him, made a circle with the thumb and index finger of one hand. Poked the middle finger of his other hand through the circle. Poked it in and out. In and out. ‘I knew your mother, did you know that? I knew her real good. I took her from behind by the creek over there.’ The soldiers laughed. One of them made a squealing sound. I told Hassan to keep walking, keep walking. ‘What a tight little sugary cunt she had!’ the soldier was saying, shaking hands with the others, grinning.” </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;">Find more information about the "non-pornographic" books being used for REQUIRED CURRICULUM, here: </span><span style="color: #0000ee; font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><u>https://www.edmonddidyouknow.com/book-summaries</u></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;">Find the full video here on </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;">YouTube </span><span style="color: #0000ee; font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><u>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQoY7NPoePc</u></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;">and here on Rumble </span><span style="color: #0f0f0f;"><span style="background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.05); font-family: Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space-collapse: preserve;"> </span><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;"><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><a href="https://rumble.com/v4g2z39-rope-report-live-jenni-and-michael-talk-edmond-public-schools-refusal-to-di.html">https://rumble.com/v4g2z39-rope-report-live-jenni-and-michael-talk-edmond-public-schools-refusal-to-di.html</a></span></span></span></div><div class="blogger-post-footer">This blog originates from ROPE2: <a href="http://reclaimoklahomaparentempowerment.blogspot.com"target="_blank">http://reclaimoklahomaparentempowerment.blogspot.com</a></div>Jenni L.

In fact, many parents have followed the chain of command up through administrators to express their irritation and frustration over the fact that these books have been assigned to kids barely even 16 years of age, believing that they are not developmentally appropriate reading for high school aged students. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;">Most parents believe that their child's school would never REQUIRE their kids to read something of which they wouldn't approve, but many - like this parent - are naive and don't check into the books their kids are reading. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;">To see the full video on this topic, </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;">see YouTube - <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OdK_05IxxLE">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OdK_05IxxLE</a></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"> and Rumble - </span><span style="color: #0000ee; font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><u>https://rumble.com/v4g2z39-rope-report-live-jenni-and-michael-talk-edmond-public-schools-refusal-to-di.html</u></span></div><div class="blogger-post-footer">This blog originates from ROPE2: <a href="http://reclaimoklahomaparentempowerment.blogspot.com"target="_blank">http://reclaimoklahomaparentempowerment.blogspot.com</a></div>Jenni L.

Because, as she explains in this video, Superintendent Grunwald prioritizes "moving EPS forward" and "the district" above the well-being of students - and certainly their parents. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;">See the full video here on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OdK_05IxxLE" target="_blank">YouTube</a> and here on <a href="https://rumble.com/v4g2z39-rope-report-live-jenni-and-michael-talk-edmond-public-schools-refusal-to-di.html" target="_blank">Rumble</a>.</span></div><div class="blogger-post-footer">This blog originates from ROPE2: <a href="http://reclaimoklahomaparentempowerment.blogspot.com"target="_blank">http://reclaimoklahomaparentempowerment.blogspot.com</a></div>Jenni L.

Then, Oklahoma Works, the state agency that connects, "Oklahoma's Workforce System", helps schools and technology centers create training programs for the jobs the courted businesses will need filled. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;">So what's wrong with this? Children are propagandized into getting onto a job pathway as early as middle school. Students aren't educated for the sake of making them well-rounded people who can make choices about what they want to be when they grow up, they're put on a pathway to 'choose' the jobs the state most wants to keep for the sake of the economy. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;">The emphasis is NOT on students, but on the economy. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;">See Julianne's blog here: <a href="http://www.heartsoverhexagons.com">www.heartsoverhexagons.com</a> </span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;">Check out the full video here: </span><span style="color: #0000ee; font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><u>https://rumble.com/v4f2o53-rope-report-live-julianne-romanello-on-workforce-training-are-we-educating-.html</u></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;">And here: </span><span style="color: #0000ee; font-family: Roboto; font-size: medium;"><u>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oCKJvjkzSJ4&list=PLDSyPK55wENH8aTbivqfMt-YXKw_lA-iG&index=70</u></span></div><div class="blogger-post-footer">This blog originates from ROPE2: <a href="http://reclaimoklahomaparentempowerment.blogspot.com"target="_blank">http://reclaimoklahomaparentempowerment.blogspot.com</a></div>Jenni L.
