David Flynn is devoted to the Dedham Massachusetts High School . He was a big football star there . He went on later move up the coaching ranks and became head coach in 2011 .

Last year he was fired for raising concerns about CRT curriculum and BLM propaganda in his daughter’s 7th grade history class. He sued the district in the US District Court of Massachusetts (Flynn v. Forrest et al.)
He settled . The superintendent as part of the settlement wrote this letter in which he stated Flynn’s concerns were valid and that the school district is amicable to the settlement. Flynn had pointed out in the suit that parents were not
informed about changes in the curriculum and did not in fact know what their children were REALLY being taught .
You had every right to inquire about these issues, and you followed the appropriate steps in attempting to learn more. You correctly pointed out that the 7th grade social studies curriculum had significantly changed and parents were not informed of these changes. In probing this matter further, you discovered that the district’s website did not accurately reflect the new curriculum content, and parents were unable to understand what was being taught.

Score one for parental rights . It is too bad it had to take a Federal Law Suit for this issue to be settled .

And it makes me wonder if anything has actually changed. Sounds like the District decided to make the obligatory "Gosh, you were right," speech and then just proceed on with business as usual. The only solution I see is school choice. Make the buzzards have to work to gain students.

it also tells me that parents have to become even more involved and proactive . ..... Even at the risk of being labelled domestic terrorists .

Sad but true. We need the same mindset the old Civil Rights warriors had in the 50's, 60's, and 70's.
