Probably a dupe Oh well.... Something for you folks with kids in school

710 KNUS has this Children's Rights card on their site. Does your kid have one?


ATTENTION

Due to my rights under the U.S. Constitution,
I will not waive my rights to have an Attorney
and my Parent(s) or Guardian present when a
law enforcement officer or school official
requests an interrogation of any incident that
takes place at school, at home or any other

location, public or private.

Boyles put this up last year or year before @ KHOW too.

Grandkids each have one in their backpacks and a copy is given to teacher at beginning of school year.

Sent from my electronic ball and chain.

I don't have kids, but it seems like a worthy repost each year around this time, IMHO.

[Holger Danske]

Awesome. Will put this in my kids backpacks and instruct them on when to use it

My kids' school gave every child a copy of the Constitution on the first day of school. I'm not worried about their rights.

Have them make a gun with their finger and see how Constitution friendly they are.

The admittance counselor has a picture of her son behind her desk posing with toy guns. I'm not worried.

Here's part of their mission statement:

"Civics and Citizenship
Classical education has always been concerned with the political order. Aristotle defined man as “by nature an animal intended to live in a polis.” Accordingly, for the Greeks education was essentially political. All free citizens bore the responsibility and the privilege of voting in the assembly and defending the polis from invasion. Young boys were taught from an early age how to speak and how to fight. The American Founders similarly hoped that schools would teach young people how to preserve the constitutional republic they had created. They realized that a free government depends not on the decisions of a few politicians but on the wisdom and virtue of a people. Political wisdom and virtue do not come easily. More than two centuries of American history have confirmed that this nation can be sustained only by citizens who understand, serve, and defend her founding principles. As much as they embraced free, constitutional government, the Founders feared the unchecked passions of an uninstructed multitude. In this light, Ridgeview regards the decline in political knowledge in our day as dangerous as the waning of intellect and virtue.
Ridgeview Classical Schools will provide a political education worthy of this nation’s founding principles. We shall exalt the inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness as guaranteed by and realized through the American frame of government. We shall ensure that our students enter the world as citizens fully cognizant of their rights and responsibilities. Such knowledge can only be gained by a thorough study of American history and government. If at times our political instruction verges on the patriotic, we must remember that James Madison, the father of the Constitution, considered a “reverence for the laws” a prejudice which even the most enlightened nations cannot afford to be without."
