"Double Your Voice-Up the Numbers" Forming a chapter of the Ontario Federation of Home and School Associations (OFHSA) can significantly strengthen your school council to fight against divisive curriculum and poor governance . By uniting parents and allies, you can enhance advocacy efforts and ensure that a wider range of perspectives is represented in discussions about educational matters. This collaborative approach not only amplifies your voice but also fosters a more inclusive environment where all parents can contribute to the decision-making processes affecting their children’s education. @OFHSA1916 @DDSBParents @parents_canada @RealLOCOParents @parentsunite_ @CPALInfo @pittparents @SOSTDSB @Bp4_Canada @Erin4Parents @ParentalRights @wokeontschools @ABschoolcouncil @CatherineKronas @CrisBairosFern @Educhatter @NewBlueON @kpssreality @survivingCanada @OECTAProv @survivingCanada @whoiskareem1 @stopwokeca @WokeWatchCDN @JillDunlop1 @JohnNewBlueON @OurDutyCanada @FatherTodor @edreform @_MikeRamsay @UCDSB @MyUCDSB @UCDSBPIC @TrusteeJohn @TrusteeCurtis @finkledusty @PeopleforEd @ONeducation @ChanLPfa @carolynburjoski @stoneriver60 @cawsbar @GunnieMadcat @Moms4Liberty @mykidsmyword @momarmy_canada @ShoutOut_twt @Duh_winning_to

In the trenches of education, a powerful alliance is forming. School councils, advocate parents, and dedicated members of the Ontario Federation of Home and School Associations (OFHSA) are stepping up to champion the needs of our children. These passionate advocates are not just participants; they are warriors, fighting tirelessly at the school board level and engaging with ministers to ensure that every child's voice is heard and valued. Adding to this dynamic coalition are ally politicians from parties like New Blue who share our vision for educational reform. Their support amplifies our efforts, bringing fresh perspectives and innovative solutions to the table. Together, we can create a formidable force for positive change, advocating for resources, policies, and programs that truly benefit our schools and communities. Imagine the impact we can achieve when we unite our efforts! Every meeting, every discussion, and every rally is a step toward building a brighter future for our children. Join us in this vital movement—let's combine our strengths and fight together for the educational opportunities our children deserve. Together, with our allies in politics, we can make a lasting difference! @ONeducation @NewBlueON @Bp4_Canada @DDSBParents @parents_canada @CPALInfo @UCDSBPIC @UCDSB @MyUCDSB @SOSTDSB @WatSAFS @ParentalRights @stopwokeca @WokeWatchCDN @teacher_woke @cawsbar @ChanLPfa @jamiljivani @stoneriver60 @CatherineKronas @jimkarahalios @daisyyoda @AutismMomMisha @DetransAware @DDSBSchools @OPCouncil @OFHSA1916 @SCDSB_Schools @tdsb @JillDunlop1 @kpssreality @edreform @mykidsmyword @survivingCanada @Moms4Liberty @momarmy_canada @LLibragirl293 @onpoli @robertbeaudoin2 @MumVsGenderID @Valerie24190901 @LimestoneDSB @John16180339887 @finkledusty @ProtectLiteracy @ChantaleBerger3 @nb @ShannonBDouglas

As we approach the 2024-25 school year, the Ministry of Education's Parents' Bill of Rights remains an unfilled promise from 2018. Despite the WRDSB's 2023 motion urging the Ministry to take decisive action, progress has been disappointingly slow. Additionally, UCDSB Trustees have yet to respond to the 2024 inquiry regarding their support for or against this important issue. This situation is unacceptable. Now is the time to take action. We encourage every parent to engage actively: attend school council meetings, join the OFHSA, delegate at school board meetings, write your trustees and MPPs, and share your experiences with others. Your voice matters, and together, we can create a force that cannot be ignored. @JillDunlop1 @ONeducation @DDSBParents @Bp4_Canada @NewBlueON @parents_canada @pittparents @CPALInfo @UCDSB @UCDSBPIC @MyUCDSB @TrusteeCurtis @TrusteeJohn @OPSBA @OFHSA1916 @EltonRobinson19 @parentsunite_ @Freedom_in_Ed @stopwokeca @WokeWatchCDN @wokeontschools @teacher_woke @Educhatter @finkledusty @AutismMomMisha @WrongUniverse21 @CarsonJerema @ChanLPfa @RCsEvilTwin @carolynburjoski @stoneriver60 @_MikeRamsay @cindyw_watson @BillCody_CA @FatherTodor @Gagas3boys @OurDutyCanada @edreform @WrongUniverse21 @GunnieMadcat @fairforall_org @JohnNewBlueON

Forcing change from within is akin to operating behind enemy lines—it's a bold move that can lead to powerful transformations. By actively participating in school councils and parent involvement committees, we position ourselves where decisions can be challenged or reversed. This allows us to influence outcomes and advocate for reforms that reflect our values, all while working within the system. Just like a covert operation, our efforts can be subtle yet impactful, enabling us to resist and confront overbearing educrats and their hidden agendas. Joining the Ontario Federation of Home and School Associations (OFHSA) further strengthens our position, giving us direct access to the Minister of Education. This connection empowers us to address our concerns head-on and ensures our voices resonate in important policy discussions. Now is the time to seize this opportunity! Together, we can challenge the status quo, confront unsupportive trustees, and create an educational environment that truly serves our children’s needs. Let’s unite, take decisive action, and lead the charge for the change we wish to see! @DDSBParents @parents_canada @CPALInfo @pittparents @SOSTDSB @fairforall_org @Bp4_Canada @wokeontschools @UCDSB @MyUCDSB @UCDSBPIC @NewBlueON @Educhatter @Freedom_in_Ed @ChanLPfa @finkledusty @OurDutyCanada @OFHSA1916 @ShoutOut_twt @Dar5131 @John16180339887 @Freedom_in_Ed @edreform @GunnieMadcat @MumVsGenderID @JohnNewBlueON @jimkarahalios @NewBlueON @mykidsmyword @momarmy_canada @kpssreality @KoppPpc @RCsEvilTwin

Ontario trustees remain silent on the issue of a Parents' Bill of Rights. On the other hand, the willingness of the OFHSA to discuss the topic suggests that they are open to engaging in conversations and possibly advocating for the rights of parents in the education system. @OFHSA1916 @ToddSmithPC @OPSBA @ONeducation @Educhatter @Bp4_Canada @NewBlueON @UCDSB @MyUCDSB @UCDSBPIC @Parents_4Rights @CPALInfo @parentsofhdsb @OurDutyCanada @finkledusty @ShannonBDouglas @wokeontschools @SOSTDSB @kpssreality @ShoutOut_twt @John16180339887 @Educhatter @carolynburjoski @AutismMomMisha @survivingCanada @ToddSmithPC @Duh_winning_to @CrisBairosFern @stoneriver60 @pierre_barns @EltonRobinson19 @cawsbar

Introducing a Parents Bill of Rights could potentially enhance the advocacy power of OFHSA (Ontario Federation of Home and School Associations) by providing a clear framework outlining the rights and responsibilities of parents within the education system. This synergistic approach has the potential to bring about meaningful improvements in the education system and create a more supportive and effective learning environment for all students. @ONeducation @OFHSA1916 @Bp4_Canada @ToddSmithPC @NewBlueON @finkledusty @kpssreality @CrisBairosFern @CatherineKronas @parents_canada @Parents_4Rights @CPALInfo @parentsofhdsb @OurDutyCanada @SOSTDSB @John16180339887 @ArcadiaNancy @survivingCanada @stoneriver60 @carolynburjoski @TrusteeCurtis @OPSBA
