A Educational Nightmare at Rochester Public Schools - Independent School District #535!

1. Stand your ground, being the first step. Don't give a inch, expect them to play mind games and have a counter-punch ready for every low blow they will volley your direction.

2. Lawyer up. This is the packet I sent our authorizing a lawyer in St. Paul, MN to do his thing, bring justice and restore balance to what has been a nightmare.
No you cannot take my rights to "free expression" or any of my civil rights away, as I have people that are now going, to level the playing field and push you back over that criminal and civil lines you decided to cross.

3. Don't give them anything beyond the bare minimum information wise.
Remember, these are the people who tried to hurt you by silencing and intimidation tactics.
Don't give them a leg to stand on and wait for them to fall on their own illegal activities and later "crash and burn".

4. Spread the good word.
Create a blog and publish everything to it.
Link to the illegal and damning documents using so interested 3rd parties can download them.
Use a scanner, your local Fed Ex Kinko's or a Android/ I phone with a camera or free scanner apps and post it all to your website or blog.
Use your local Craigslist rants and raves as a platform as I have done.
Post things like videos or illegal phone calls from the school heads to a YouTube account also as I have done.

4. (A) Don' be afraid to go to the local media and seek out reporters looking for a sensational story.
Especially, being involved with a school corp. that is largely mistrusted by the local populace, that media contact you make could use their past sins as a pile on for a "huge" story that would blow the lid open on what is going on.
Media exposure like this can sometimes get those involved in your mistreatment or those initiating the illegal activities terminated with cause, which is a perfect ending to what you have experienced.

These person's terminations can also be the background for a ground breaking and often situation changing civil rights lawsuit, that in time, can change every thing for the better.

4. (B) Use popular "social media" apps/ sites like Whisper, Instigram and Tumbler to glean intelligence and spread your message to others quickly and directly through these outlets.
For example, I put up one test post to judge the local interest in the Whisper app and had a ton of people getting back to me how they despise certain local high schools and how they are run.
The most hated school was Century High, located here in Rochester, MN.
These are students, openly saying our school sucks and is more of a prison than a free-thinking, learning environment.
This is what happens when you push conformity, lack of free expression and no major technological push in your schools.
You have to draw student's interests in, make them excited about learning, not drone them with all things boring, creating the future sheep of tomorrow.

Remember, no school cabal or business likes bad press and that is a critical tool that plays into your advantage pushing back against them.

5. Google your school corporation administrator's and the school board where your kids go.
I did this and found out that our local superintendent was part of an illegal book banning, still uses a $4500 desk his predecessor had bought with school funds, that Mr. Munoz was not the most qualified candidate at the time of his hiring, and that from person meetings, Mr. Munoz rallied for an I pad initiative that never got off the ground. 

The ironic twist being, all of the administrator's I have encountered are sporting nice flashy newer I pad's, while the kids have none.

They also are sitting on a very fast expensive Gigabyte internet connection at the Edison Building and I don't see the need, and thus, the culture of unneeded and wasteful spending never left this district.

6. Get as many people involved and in the know as you can about your situation.
Quite literally, I have 4-5 people "in the loop" about our ongoing fight with school leadership that drops the ball and won't do the right thing.
These can be social workers, counselor's doctor's, local business owners, the mayors office, the more people who know, again that vice or public pressure will come down hard on those doing the illegal activites.

I've shown these people everything and let them make judgement on their own.
Everyone who saw the criminal and illegal IEP notices sent by the head of the Special Education department (a direct and deliberate attempt to deny my children FAPE and a proper IEP based education!), the direct violations of my "freedom of expression" and general "civil rights" via a signed letter by Mr. Munoz. Their actions were shocked and in bewilderment.

The actually comment verbatim was, "they actually sent those letters?", this coming from 3 lawyer's who know that they had put their illegal activities on paper, gave us a great paper trail (evidence) and in their haste, gave us the critical tools to establish and show a direct pattern of oppression, criminal activities, misconduct, harassment an intimidation.
All directly sue-able offenses, both criminally and civilly in the court system at the federal level.   

The general consensus is, wow, things really haven't changed and they are intentionally breaking the law! 

In closing, don't give in. hold your ground, do whatever it takes to get your oppression into the public's eye and then watch them scatter like roaches.
The only rights goons like this can take from you are the ones you allow.
