ABC7
— Wheaton parents demand face masks be mandatory in schools regardless of CDC guidelines – Sarah Schulte
https://abc7chicago.com/wheaton-il-parents-face-masks-illinois-schools/10892331/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Some Wheaton Community Unit School District 200 parents are outraged the district has decided to make masks optional for the upcoming school year. “My superintendent is arrogant enough to believe that it’s ok to roll the dice with the lives of our children, and that’s unacceptable,” said Ronak Maisuria, parent. Parents are especially concerned for all the elementary students 11-years-old and younger who are not eligible for the vaccine. The district contains several elementary schools. “We all have sacrificed, we need to do our part in the last few months to continue to protect everyone until the option is available for school-aged children,” said Jill Caballero, parent. “I don’t think we’re out of the woods yet, and I think the Delta variant is a great concern to me and to my family,” said Daniel Vissers, parent. Supt. Dr. Jeff Schuler was not available for an interview but did respond with an emailed statement. It read in part, “District 200 is very cognizant of the CDC guidance and continues to prioritize student safety in our back to school planning, as we have done over the last 12 month.” As long as there are layered mitigations, Dr. Schuler said the CDC guidance does allow for local school districts to make adjustments to the mitigations.)

NBC5
— Parents Raise Concerns After Suburban School Districts Change Mask Rules. The state is leaving it up to local school districts to decide if masks are required, and that is not sitting well with some parents. – Chris Coffey
https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/parents-raise-concerns-after-suburban-school-districts-change-mask-rules/2556917/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Several dozen parents in west suburban Wheaton rallied and marched to Community Unit School District 200 headquarters Friday afternoon to demand the district continue to require masks in classrooms. The school district recently decided masks would be optional at all grade levels when the new school year begins. “It feels like they don’t care about my child’s health,” said parent Charlotte Sobota. The state is leaving it up to local school districts to decide if masks are required, and that is not sitting well with some parents. “You do not take away the preventative health measure that is most proven to work,” said parent and rally organizer Ronak Maisuria. District 200 said it is continuing mitigations such as masks on buses and physical distancing at 3 feet. The district also said it is cognizant of CDC guidance, and if local conditions suggest a need to adjust practices, “we will do that as we did all last year as plans adjusted.”)

CBS2
— ‘Not Sending My Child Back’: Parents Of Wheaton School District Upset About Mask Optional Rule – Megan Hickey
https://chicago.cbslocal.com/2021/07/16/parents-wheaton-school-district-upset-mask-optional/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: This week, District 200 in Wheaton opted to make masks optional for all students, which didn’t sit well with everyone. Some parents even rallied outside the superintendent’s office Friday afternoon. The march to the Community Unit School District 200 building on Friday was prompted by a vote earlier this week to make masks optional. It’s diverging from the CDC’s recent recommendation that only students and teachers who are fully vaccinated should drop the masks. “I thought it was a no brainer at the elementary school level. I thought my daughter would be going to school in the first grade and everyone would be wearing a mask in the room.” District 200 mom Ronak Maisuria. “It’s not about my family, this is about our community,” added fellow District 200 mom Jessica Banaszek. They organized some like-minded parents who still plan to mask their children, but worry that won’t be enough to safeguard their health. “So right now I’m telling you I’m not sending my child back to school on August 23,” said Banaszek. “They have their choice, but their choice takes away the safety of everyone around them.” The topic is polarizing, to say the least.)

SOUTHLAND JOURNAL
— Chicago lawsuit gains national attention, commentary in New Hampshire
https://thesouthlandjournal.com/chicago-lawsuit-gains-national-attention-commentary-in-new-hampshire/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A lawsuit filed in Illinois targeting critical race theory (CRT) teachings as discriminatory is fast drawing national attention. Evanston-Skokie District 65 drama teacher Stacy Deemar recently filed suit in federal court, charging the teachings are divisive and “perpetuate harmful racial stereotypes.” Deemar’s view seems to be one shared by others. “Not only does the suit, along with findings by the Department of Education, detail CRT’s usual litany of racially divisive indoctrination activities, but it also confirms that school officials use the ‘fighting racism’ excuse as cover for teaching that individualism and meritocracy are oppressive, that the ideal of ‘equality’ and even the nuclear family itself are both racist, and that true anti-racists will question the very foundations of the liberal order, including equality theory, legal reasoning, enlightenment rationalism, and principles of constitutional law,” the Auburn New Hampshire Free Speech Political Page posted on Facebook. Critics of the CRT system argue the problems don’t end there.)

Each county has a Republican Central Committee that organizes, campaigns, and elects Republican candidates. Each central committee is comprised of precinct committee people, who are elected during primary elections every two years. Each voting precinct has a committee person (these are your neighbors!), so contact your local precinct committeeman and ask how you can become involved. It’s easy.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: A group in Illinois is looking for chapters across the state to help keep tabs on teaching plans they say are dividing children. A parent in Naperville, Shannon Adcock, said she became aware of “culturally responsive teaching” when she was unsuccessful in running for the school board. She said the more she learned about it, the more she felt it was regressive and divisive by teaching children race or gender directly impacts outcomes. “You are having students segregated by their color, by their sexuality, by their any number of filters that an activist teacher can choose and say ‘so because of your skin color you are a problem, because of your skin color you will never make it in life, because of this intangible systemic problem in one of the greatest countries in the world,’ and to me, it’s to me extremely anti-Americanism, it’s anti-child and I believe it to be child abuse,” Adcock told WMAY. “Teach history, there’s no question about that, but when you begin filtering students, this becomes a problem and it’s a violation, a constitutional violation.” She said the curriculum can take many different names and forms, so she and others seeing similar trends in other parts of the state started the website AwakeIL.com as a way to share information with taxpayers, parents and educators about trends around the state. “We are going to preserve the integrity of our constitution, state and federal, and we’re going to take that divisive curricula and segregationist approach to education out of our classrooms,” she said.)

CITY OF WHEATON

The City of Wheaton is excited to welcome back this community tradition and encourages community groups, churches and businesses to help make this the best parade yet by being a participant. The parade will be at 11 a.m. Sunday, July 4, marching down Main Street and finishing near Memorial Park. Find out more about registration on the Wheaton Park District’s website, and we will see you at the parade! (DIERSEN: Are political organizations and candidates encouraged to have entries? It would be great if the Wheaton Park District (WPD) would publish its sponsorship policy. Are all sponsors banned, or just DuPage Republicans? Will parade entries include bagpipers and the high school bands, and if not, why not? What parade entries have come in so far? How much money does the WPD have available for paid parade entries? Is it just the $10,000 that the City of Wheaton gave the WPD for paid parade entries? What paid parade entries will be in the parade?)

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Remap moves ahead: Democrats send new legislative maps to Pritzker’s desk — over GOP objections. The House passed the maps shortly before 10 p.m. on a straight, partisan 71 to 45 vote. They passed the state Senate in the same fashion earlier in the day. “We are not going to let Republicans gridlock the process, solely for political gains,” state House Speaker Emanuel “Chris” Welch said minutes before the vote. “It’s not going to happen. Not here. Period.” – Rachel Hinton and Andrew Sullender

(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Slavery was part of the daily culture of the tribal nations,” said Moore’s statement, “with the (Cherokee, Chickasaw, Creek, Choctaw and Seminole tribes) entering into treaties with the Confederate States of America to ensure slavery continued.” Paul Chaat Smith, a Comanche and the associate curator of the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian, said in a 2018 speech that these five tribes “were deeply committed to slavery, established their own racialized Black codes, immediately reestablished slavery when they arrived in Indian territory, rebuilt their nations with slave labor, crushed slave rebellions and enthusiastically sided with the Confederacy in the Civil War.” Smith referred to this truth as the “mangy, snarling dog standing between you and a crowd-pleasing narrative,” according to coverage of his speech in Smithsonian magazine. “Indians bought, sold, owned and exploited black people’s labor and reproduction for economic and social gain,” wrote University of Massachusetts at Amherst historian Barbara Krauthamer in her book “Black Slaves, Indian Masters.” “Because the Indian nations existed as autonomous political entities, Union victory did not automatically liberate black people from bondage,” Krauthamer wrote. “Only in the course of negotiating a new treaty with the United States during the spring of 1866 did Choctaw and Chickasaw leaders grudgingly consent to acknowledge slavery’s demise.”)

News literacy matters. And particularly in this era of rumor, social media lies and falsehoods, algorithmic digital marketing, Orwellian politics and yes, news media bias, it has become central. . .Yes, news literacy matters, as we have said in this space in the past. So we’re disappointed that legislation in Springfield to require a news literacy curriculum in our schools has become another partisan issue. We do not understand that. We do not understand why Republicans would oppose citizenship education. Our schools are meant to prepare our kids for the adult world. In a democracy, what preparation is more important?)
