WE’RE NOT GONNA TAKE IT No, We Ain’t Gonna Take It. We’re Not Gonna Take It Anymore.
We’re Right! We’re Free! We’ll Fight! You’ll See!
Recent lawfare includes more than last week’s seminal SCOTUS rulings. New filings have gone out alleging causes of action including violation of consumer sales practices and the False Claims Act, not investigating bullying claims, civil conspiracy, wrongful death, negligence, breach of fiduciary duties, and intentional and negligent infliction of emotional distress against Latin School of Chicago (IL); Columbus Academy (OH), Charleston Day (SC); and St. Anne’s (NY) (not all mentioned claims are alleged against each school). This is a clear showing that we’re not gonna take it anymore. We’re not gonna take the hypocrisy. We’re not gonna take the consumer lies. We’re not gonna take the financial waste. We’re not gonna take sham DEI. We’re not gonna take it anymore.
The DECLARATION of PARENTS of the INDEPENDENT SCHOOLS OF AMERICA
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for Independent Schools to dissolve the bands which have connected them with the National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS), a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that Parents should declare the causes which impel them to demand the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all children are born curious, that they should receive an education.–That to develop their intellect, Parents may choose an Independent School founded upon the rational tenets of the Enlightenment,–That whenever any Form of Associated Governance becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the Alumni and Parents to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Autonomy, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their children’s Safety and Education. When a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Governance. The history of NAIS is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over Independent Schools. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.
