#17: "Get Your Kids Out of Government Schools": Christina Boggess, the Utah Board of Education, and a Warning to Parents
In a startling public statement, Utah State Board of Education member Christina Boggess announces she will not seek re-election—and urges parents to remove their children from government schools altogether. Calling the education system "broken," "corrupt," and "morally bankrupt," Boggess alleges widespread dysfunction, political self-interest, and the erosion of parental authority inside the Utah Board of Education and state government.
In this episode, we examine Boggess's claims, the context behind her resignation, and what it means when a sitting member of a state board of education publicly declares that the system she helped oversee cannot be reformed. What should parents take from her warning? Parents are asking, should I homeschool my kids?
