The real reason school children are asking to not have cell phones in the classroom

The real reason many school districts across the United States have decided to no longer allow cell phones in the classroom.  Sometimes these devices can be distracting to students while the teacher is trying to teach the class.  The student could be contact someone on social media or consider it an electronic way of passing a note.  The only problem is the teacher is not able to confiscate the text to make the student read it out loud to the class.  A lot of teachers are now requiring the student to put the cell phone in a basket at the beginning of class then will hand it back at the end of class.  Some parents have felt this is an issue since they are not able to get a hold of their children during the school day.  The truth is most schools still have a landline telephone to contact the school and still use a public address system to notify the student if they need to come to office in an emergency.  Remember the student is their to learn not to be distracted.  Plus this also prevents the student from cheating on their tests or work assignments.  The other reason is some teachers have felt that a student may film independently a teacher making a statement about issue with maybe the parent disagrees with the subject the teacher is teaching in the class.  Remember most public schools in at least one class I would attend the principal would quietly sit in a class to observe the way the teacher was teaching the class.  Many school districts want their teachers to able to teach without outside interference. I support that children not having cell phone on their person and is giving back to the student by the end of the day.

In the middle school and high school the student would hand it over to the teacher in the home room that is the first period of the day in a school day.   
 

Dustin Darden not qualified for any elected office


Dustin Darden as a school board member would be like Theresa Obermeyer will be recalled if elected.  I could see him that be in left field on an issue dealing with the school board issue.  He has been thrown out of Assembly meetings for not being on topic.  Let's say it is about teacher contracts and he is talking about god and Jesus.  He has prevented Liz Vazquez from returning to politics many times over in fact in 2019 West Anchorage Assembly race his results allowed Kameron Perez-Verdia to win over Liz he got 9 percent would had put it in a close election.  Kameron received 6,161 votes, Liz received 4,852.  Dustin received 1,077 votes.  Had he not been in that race.  Kameron may have won by only by over 300 votes instead.  Imagine the Anchorage Assembly had Liz being elected in 2020.

Kameron Perez-Verdia 
 
Liz Vazquez 
Dustin Darden is just like Theresa Obermeyer refused to be on topic.  She never understood the topic of the question that Rhonda McBride one of my favorite reporters here in Alaska who was working at KYUK AM a Bethel affiliate of Alaska Public Media did not stay on topic of the question on question asked by Rhonda about rural Alaska.

 



Here is him at the Anchorage Assembly Meetings refusing to be on topic.

Please elect someone other than Dustin for this seat please.

East Anchorage Senator Bill Wielechowski supports moving the legislative sessions to Anchorage


 As of yesterday Bill Wielecowski he told me that having the session at the Wells Fargo Building would be better for him.  He told me while returning a space heater at my work while leaving the store.  I asked him why he did not go to Wasilla in 2019 he said that was unconstitutional and I told him it was not.

Time to single district the Anchorage School Board



  Originally written on April 27, 2020

Now that Two for all passed in the Tuesday, April 7th, 2020 municipal election.  We need to put six of the seven Anchorage School Board members in a single district.  One member will be at large and run in 2030 the same time as the mayor.  What we could do have all 7 members of school board run for election in 2028.  Seats A, B and C will run for a regular three year term this will cover Assembly Districts 1, 2 and 3.  Seats D, E and F will cover Assembly districts 4, 5 and 6.  The will run for a one year term then in 2029 will run for a full three year term.  Seat G  will run a two year old term in 2028.  Then in 2030 run additional three year term.  We could also make it so the at large district person is paid more and is also the chair of the school board.  This makes so the people choose the chair of the school board not the school board.  Now let's put more accountability in our school board by having them represent the neighborhood instead of having them campaign the whole city for a school board seat.  Have each school member be as neighborly as an Assembly member.

We need to make all county positions except commissioners and sheriff appointed instead of elected in WA State



Recently Kittitas County just loss the passing of their coroner.  According to the Washington State Constitution all most non charter over 40k however in 1996 the Washington State Legislature passed a law due to a crazy Spokane County Coroner who had Dr Quincy type of diagnosis.  Kittitas County qualified for an elected coroner and was required to elect a coroner.  This is required to be a partisan position.  Now the Kittitas County GOP now must choose three people through the county PCO system where we may have three unqualified people instead of the county commissioners could directly interview them.  Maybe we need to make the ability to make all non charters the ability to appoint their medical examiners.  Maybe we can also do this with other position like county clerk, county auditor and county treasurer.

 

County Medical Examiner needs a medical degree in experience in surgery.

County Auditor a person needs experience in having a business and recording important documents must be able accurately supervising voter activity.

County Treasurer needs to be a certified financial planner and accountant

County Prosecutor must have a practicing attorneys license and can supervise attorneys under them

Changing this positions to an appointed position it takes the politics out of the position.

We need to require a female child pelvic exam to determine participation in female sports



 

We need to require a pelvic exam to determine participation in female sports.  I know they may sound like a invasion of a girls privacy this is to make sure only genetic girls participate.  First of all the genitals have to look like this

In this pelvic exam unless the genetic female has had these organs surgically removed they must have these organs inside to pass the test of allowing the person to participate in female sports


 Plus after the age of 10 most girls chest start expanding naturally.  This can determine eligibility the male to female transition does not do that in fact later on the transition person has breathing problem because of the fact the rib cage does not expand like the genetic females do
Remember we must have fair competition in female sports by only allowing genetic females to compete.

Citizens are allowed to gather signatures at any public place in Washington State


 Citizens are allowed to gather signatures for any public issue.  They can not aggressively make a citizen sign a petition.  No store personnel is allowed to ask these signature gatherers to leave.  They have to provide a space for them to gather signature that is not in the way of their operations. Unless the signature gatherer is being aggressive to the customers.  They do not have to provide a table for the signature gathers or a chair.  The petitioners need to provide those items on their own.  

 

If a citizen attempts to obstruct the process of this signature gathering such as ripping up petitions and crossing out signatures they can be subject to arrest and possibly fined for disorderly conduct.  It is considered a felony charge.  Sometimes prosecutors will drop these charge if the violators agrees to never perform the act again.
