Hello. My 6th grader and 7th grade children currently attend a brick/mortar CC school in Austin. I have been told that WHA was started by some of the former teachers from our brick/mortar CC school; also I noticed that some of the teachers from my current CC school also teach as WHA. My children are doing very well with the virtual/online learning at their current (brick/mortar) CC school; my son is very introverted and homeschooling seems to be less stressful on him and overall he seems happier learning at home. I find value in the CC teaching models (trivium, socratic methods, heavy Latin content, and occasional/appropriate uses of the Bible). But what I do not like is the amount of scripture that is being taught in science and how much time is devoted to memorizing scripture in science; secondly, I have heard my son's history teacher use his platform to grandstand his opinions on race and politics to the students. My son is 12, and his history teacher told the class that Democrats participate in civil disobedience by killing babies through abortions. My son had no idea what an abortion was, and I was not expecting to have that conversation with him when he was 12 yrs old. My son thought his teacher was describing Democrats killing babies in their cribs. This same teacher also gave his opinion on the BLM. I reported my grievance to the head of school as well as the head of SOL; both leaders instructed me to discuss my grievance with the teacher directly. Yesterday, I spoke with the history teacher and he apologized/asked for forgiveness and said that he will never speak about mature subject matter with the students. But now, I feel like I have to watch over and video tape what is being said in several classes. Has anyone ever had a WHA teacher use their job as a teacher to grandstand their personal beliefs? If so, what was the outcome? Can anyone provide feedback on the Science SOL curriculum? I'm impressed with what I see on the outside of WHA (videos from their website, facebook). But I worry that WHA is the online version of my current subpar CC school.
