As I stated in my reply email below I screen capped, more mind games and stupidity run rampant are in play at my daughters old school Bamber Valley Elementary, part of:

Rochester Public Schools - Independent School District #535!.

I'm beyond happy and glad that we chose to take the homeschool route now. 

Either this is another mistake or a boneheaded, malicious, mind game designed by get at us.

We both are once again laughing, enjoying another glaring example of the horrible culture of ignorance at the leadership level and another communications break down... 

This was an another deliberate swipe and poorly attempted personal attack involving an over glorified librarian that isn't in the know regarding the situation that transpired Friday at the home base of the Rochester School Crime family leadership, the Edison Building.

A simple prior arrangement that that was in place was made with no problems.
They would find our daughters coat and bring any personal effects that was in my teen sons locker who went to Mayo to the Homeschooling head, we would at pick up, drop off any school materials we had still.

Open communication is a nightmare here and with the use of cell phones, I pads and email systems, the head here often has no clue what the as is doing.

Once again, who with a brain would want their kids in this district?


Update: My wife replied with a strong and terse worded email reply explaining this has been taken care of and like many things happening in the school district, is beyond her pay grade.

And in the email, it seems my wife was quoted retail cost of replacing the books.
Schools are not taxed entities and often receive volume and educator's discounts when buying materials as they purchase so much in bulk.

Ouch, that whole "Knowledge is Power" thing stings sometimes...

I'm more than certain that if the Pope himself were to visit the local Rochester Minnesota area, local control hungry educators at the Edison Building would take the same attitude that Sarah Palin has, that he is too extreme and liberal, and they would chase him out of town.

I have witnessed first hand those who call themselves good, moral Christians, yet have that ideology that it's ok to do immoral and unethical behaviors Monday through Saturday as long as you pay your tithe on Sunday and ask God for forgiveness for the horrible acts you commit often.

I'm pretty sure they have an odd, misaligned view of religion here and when they die and must be judged like the rest of us, all of the bad they did daily to further the conformist agenda here, will be gigantic negative marks in the book of life against these people.

Do yourself a favor fake Christians, lead by example and be a some of your good works.
Going to a church every Sunday does not make you a good believer, just like sitting in a garage doe not make you a car.
I will continue to pray for those so full of hate and ill will and hope one day they will change their ways.

One of the best homeschooling blogs/ journals I have encountered so far in my research after choosing educational and intellectual freedom for my children: link

In recent days, and in my dealings with public school officials, especially in Lawrence Indiana and Rochester Minnesota, I have seen some of the most immoral, insane, criminally unethical actions taken by those tasked with keeping my disabled children on IEP's safe.

They don't follow IEP's,federal or state education laws, school rules, bus safety regulations, even their own school board rules, rulings and regulations, but they are the first person to threaten, harass and legally threaten parents who question them or challenge their ineptness or continuous failures often.

That is the biggest reason we as parents chose to go the homeschooling route.
We can guarantee our kids safety, not have to constantly fight with a school cabal and anal attendance policies that do not account for disabled children's multiple medical obligations and a general, we don't care attitude that is prevelant, especially here in Rochester Minnesota.
For example, I've lost count of the many times I have emailed my sons special education resources person at the local Mayo High School asking him about strategies, tips and resources to help my teen freshman with classes he was close to getting D's and I never got a response back.
I asked for the same open communications with my kids attending Phoenix Academy and Bamber Valley Elementary, and got nothing in letters, emails and voice mails me and my wife sent repeatedly.

Basically, if I'm seeing things for what they are, the local schools and the teachers don't like parents that are super active in their kids education. If you ask serious questions or ask them to help you help your kid, they just ignore your communications like they were never sent.
This is a very bad or horrible control tactic and really sends the wrong message to those parents who want their kids to excel.

I believe this ideology is the running policy here.
"We will contact you when we need information immediately, but if you contact us, good luck, as your kid or helping him or her, just isn't our problem!"

They here at the Rochester Public Schools have a pretty website, a very bad ran Twitter account by the Superintendent Michael Munoz and a Facebook page that are all geared around pushing a image that just isn't backed by truth or reality.

Trust me when I say, I have personal experience,  their propaganda is just that, a well rehearsed, well oiled machine trying to keep the illusion alive that they are making a difference in the community.

 
In reality, the aren't...
