to Colorado Middle School Students<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><!--more-->by Renee Parsons<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">As the recent school board elections concluded nationally, Colorado experienced a significant increase in parental school board participation across the state with one notable exception being the 9R School District in the southwest corner of the State.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>Always a major factor was the Durango Herald which has abandoned any pretense of being a defender of the First Amendment and a local Democratic party machine which has assumed the ideological blindfolds of being in lockstep with the national Democrats now operating as cultural Marxists.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">As incumbent 9R Democrats denied any existence of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.frontpagemag.com\/fpm\/2021\/06\/critical-race-theorys-marxist-roots-bruce-thornton\/\"><span class=\"s2\">CRT<\/span><\/a> (Critical Race Theory), the thirteen-page <a href=\"https:\/\/cdphe.colorado.gov\/hkcs\"><span class=\"s2\">2021 Healthy Kids Colorado Survey<\/span><\/a><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>was being distributed to 9R\u2019s middle school students while exposing alarmingly inappropriate topics to 10 &#8211; 14 year olds (aka sixth to eighth graders).<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>A creation of the Colorado Department of Health and Environment (CDPHE), a version of the Colorado Survey recently surfaced in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/mkt_breakingnews\/virginia-parents-raise-concerns-over-extremely-invasive-survey-that-promotes-early-sexualization_4111295.html?utm_source=ref_share&amp;utm_campaign=email&amp;rs=SHRFNSJN\"><span class=\"s2\">Virginia<\/span><\/a> and is now recognized as a nationally distributed marketing tool funded by the CDC (Center for Disease Control and Prevention) as it institutionalizes a school district\u2019s right to challenge a parent\u2019s natural, God-given authority over its own children.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The survey presents issues that are not-age appropriate for middle school students who are neither emotionally nor intellectually mature or experienced in questionnaires to understand the implications of the questions and their answers.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>They are being quizzed as to their knowledge and\/or familiarity with sexual, transgender, violence and suicide issues in such a way that suggests certain answers are more \u2018cool\u2019 than those with no experience just as it is easily imagined that an impressionable student may exaggerate their answers to feel more \u2018grown up\u2019 or impress their peers. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>In addition, the answer to numerous questions may be interpreted as a reflection on whether a parent is disengaged, inadequate or not providing sufficient parental attention to the student\u2019s needs and whether, therefore, is qualified to continue in a parental role. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Having originally been introduced as a theory of class conflict, socialism has never been successful in America where class consciousness is replaced by the country\u2019s Declaration of Independence and the ability of its citizens to improve its standard of living.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>In response, the Marxists\u2019 amended its US agenda to identify social unrest and race as their defining issues while today openly embracing the nuts and bolts of <a href=\"https:\/\/imprimis.hillsdale.edu\/critical-race-theory-fight\/\"><span class=\"s2\">CRT<\/span><\/a><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>as a \u2018soft sell\u2019 using the acceptable mantras of \u2018equity\u2019 (not to be confused with equality) and \u201cdiversity and inclusion.\u201d<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Shrewdly sifting CRT attention on indoctrinating the younger generation would accomplish the Marxist goal of destroying the American family unit as ultimately introducing a Socialist world that would eliminate Martin Luther King\u2019s Dream,<\/span><span class=\"s3\"> end Constitutional privileges as well as<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>private property rights, seize land and wealth with redistribution along racial lines<\/span><span class=\"s1\">. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">While the Survey claims to be <i>\u2018voluntary\u2019<\/i> and <i>\u2018completely anonymous<\/i>,\u201d non-participating students must \u2018opt out\u2019 in order to avoid participation. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>The odds of voluntarily being singled out and removed as the remainder of the class take the Survey together may subject the non-participant to more unnecessary peer pressure than they are willing to experience. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">It is of special interest that a participating school district has little choice but to participate or lose millions of dollars that the District would otherwise receive from the State and that the School District Administration has no real option to replace this objectionable Survey with one that is less invasive and provocative even though the CDPHE website declares that \u201c<i>school districts can modify the survey to meet the needs of their community<\/i>.\u201d<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>It is also of interest to note that a \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1ytrg0S3MLbPHYZx7DIz6zeIx-wVpjVUl\/view\"><span class=\"s2\">censored<\/span><\/a>\u2019 version of the Survey exists which excludes two sections devoted to sexual consent and sexual health, although it is unknown why the 9R school district received the non-censored version. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>While there are more egregious, objectionable questions than can be addressed in this article, here are just a handful that has sent many parents into a raging tizzy while the \u2018woke\u2019 Democrats persist in denying that the Survey represents those values and ideology as identified by CRT. <span
