What people are saying:

• Secular Education Association: And this is not just a Toledo problem.

  Across the country—individual LifeWise programs are asking local communities to raise tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars for buses, buildings, staffing, curriculum fees, insurance and branding.

  🚨Many of those appeals are being made in communities where families and public schools are already struggling to meet basic needs.

  Multiply this $1,600 decal request by hundreds of programs, then add the buses, facilities and annual operating costs. This is a massive transfer of local charitable dollars into privately operated religious infrastructure—often built around children enrolled in some of the poorest public-school districts in the country.

  • Facebook User: Secular Education Association How much have YOU donated or is this more of your typical hypocricy?
• Facebook User: In ten years Lifewise will become a private full day school is my guess. I’m sure that’s already part of their plan they just haven’t advertised that phase because they don’t want public schools to stop approving their requests. They will be a huge part of the dismantling of public schools and have the largest private school system in the country paid for by donors and communities.
  • Facebook User: Facebook User And just think how much money they will legally siphon out of public education. Who loses? The kids of all the folks bitching about Lifewise. Well played Lifewise! Well played.
  • Facebook User: Facebook User Louise Crawford Kahle why weren’t the leaders of this organization in Dayton today who take money from everyone to fight for this noble cause? Lifewise spent thousands of community dollars for this main lifewise event, and no one from SEA was there to be seen. This is disappointing, and I think its time we finacially audit SEA and where the money is going.. I talked to hundreds of lifewise employees and volunteers and got them to understand where this movement is coming from. SEA should of kept the tittle of PAL, and not made it seem so left winged. We need better leaders in this movement who will get off their butts they’re paid to do, and at least protest a main lifewise event.
  • Facebook User: Facebook User they could be a private school now.
    No the goal is to break the law, get a new ruling and make this curriculum part of public-school life.
• Facebook User: The same people who think Lifewise Academy is a good idea, are the same ones who think poverty is a choice.
  • Facebook User: Facebook User Well said!

• Facebook User: And it is a high pressure sales pitch to get parents to enroll their kids-which then leads to in and out-groups putting social pressure on the kids who don’t attend.
• Facebook User: 🤮as a parent of 2 TPS kids this makes me SICK
• Facebook User:
• Facebook User: Protested lifewise in my hometown by myself. Not one sea member there both days. I asked hundreds outside if anyone had a undergraduate degree or teaching certificate, and not one person raised their hands. I asked hundreds across the street with my own voice if they had one valid reason everyone could agree with, why they cant do this after school, and no one had an answer. I expect you to block this and muzzle my voice as you always do, but always know I didn’t see any of you there. Your censorship of me disappoints me, but I expect it. You want it both ways and to also take credit for it.
• Facebook User: Hide your children, the christians are grooming again
• Facebook User: Wow pay them to indoctrinate our children. Stupid if you agree to begin with more stupid to pay for it. It’s wrong period Southern Baptist hope your project tanks. It’s no good for our kids.
