Some Wenatchee Valley citizens are pushing back against the Chelan-based activist responsible for the publication as well as Wick Communications for printing it, while others applaud the mailer
As much as Mr McMullen may wish, WA State homeschoolers have always been a diverse group. I was a board member with the Washington Homeschool Organization (WHO) for yrs. This organization has informed,educated and lobbied for homeschoolers for 40 yrs. Never has religious affiliation been promoted. Never. Fought that lie decades ago.
Many yrs ago I visited Mr Condotta when he was our Representative in Olympia. I was personally dismayed at his overtly anti public school, "slash and burn" attitude toward others.
These folks are free to live in their own reality. The moment they threaten others, they must be met with resistance.
For these Reich-wing evangelicals to claim that WHS doesn't prep young adults for college, since when do these anti-intellectual fascists support anyone going to college at all?
Wick Communications may have considered their printing of the propaganda to be strictly a business deal but principles should be applied to business. Wick knew they were printing a rag that undermined local public education and inclusive values but they did it anyway and then wrote an editorial defending their action. I think "no" to the Wenatchee Record would have been a good tact to take.

Thank you so much for your input!
Victoria has it right. If WSD is failing it will only be worse if the replacement levy fails.

Yes, Jesus has been weaponized.
