Stop new Board of Education Health Measures
YOUR ACTIONS:
- Visit www.nebraskansembracinglife.org and select one or two of the Talking Points and use them as the foundation of your letter of opposition to the proposed standards. Add in one or two short paragraphs of your own experience or observation. Letters that are ½ page to 2/3 page in length have proven over time to be much more effective compared to longer letters.
- Call or email Education Commissioner Matt Blomstedt. Tell him that most parents are alarmed at the progressive content of the two areas of Human Growth Development and Social Emotional/Mental Health the standards and are opposed to them so they must be removed. These standards were developed by so-called experts whose values ARE NOT in alignment with the vast majority of parents in Nebraska. 402-471-5020 matt.blomstedt@nebraska.gov
- Email several of the State School Board members. Tell each of them that most parents are alarmed at the progressive content in the areas of Human Growth Development and Social Emotional Mental Health. These standards do not align with nor support the value systems of the majority of Nebraska parents. You are opposed to them, so they must be removed. Visit NEL website for list of Talking Points and email addresses of NE State School Board Members. Thank you from NEL ACTION Leaders Lauren Bopp and Mark Bonkiewicz.
