🚨 A parent said no. LifeWise still reached the child. In LifeWise’s own video, they say students came back from LifeWise and started a “LifeWise Bible Club at recess” to teach another child what LifeWise had taught them. LifeWise called that “beautiful.” Parents, ask yourself one question: If you said no to a religious program,… Read More

🚨 Washington Post is now naming what parents, educators, and advocates have been warning about: This is not one isolated issue. It is not just LifeWise.It is not just Ten Commandments posters.It is not just school chaplains.It is not just vouchers.It is not just prayer policies.It is not just “Bible literacy.”It is not just religious… Read More

🚨 Nearly 15,000 parents, educators, and community members are already connected to Secular Education Association across our public page and private community. They know what’s up. They know this is not just “Bible class.”They know this is not just “character education.”They know this is part of a much bigger push to blur the line between… Read More

🚨 Patrick Henry Local Schools families should be asking hard questions right now. Local reporting confirms Christopher Walter -a Deshler pastor charged with grooming and sexual battery involving a minor — was also a Patrick Henry Local Schools employee and has been suspended without pay. Reporting also identifies him as the lead pastor at Immanuel… Read More

Hoosiers are pushing back. 👏 Tammy Pulford of Hoosiers United for Separation of Church and State said it plainly: “Indiana’s top two elected officials should not be pushing partisan organizations such as TPUSA, LifeWise Academy, and a particular theology on Hoosiers, and they especially should not be imposing them in our public schools.” EXACTLY. This… Read More

🏳️‍🌈 Pride Month reminder: we see the scam. 🚨They call it character education until you read the anti-LGBTQ doctrine. 🚨They call it leadership until you find the sexuality pledge. 🚨They call it Bible club until you find the training warning adults about “Transgender and LGBTQ+ Ideology in Schools.” LifeWise. FCA. Good News Club. Different names.SAME… Read More

🚨 Onslow County Schools Onslow County, NC — a sitting school board member is publicly promoting LifeWise. Not a church page.Not a private parent group.A public-facing page identifying her as an Onslow County Board of Education member.

https://www.counterpunch.org/2026/06/02/the-conservative-plan-to-dismantle-public-schools-is-entering-the-home-stretch/ The attack on public education is not just about “taxes” or “school choice.” 🚨It is also about moving public money and public trust into private religious systems. ✔️First, lawmakers underfund public schools.✔️Then they expand vouchers, charters, released-time religious instruction, chaplain bills, Ten Commandments bills, “biblical worldview” curriculum, and private religious school subsidies.✔️Then they blame… Read More

🚨 This is not the first time we have seen this. Clovis/Curry County Chamber of Commerce’s account just amplified LifeWise Academy’s own religious messaging -not as “character education,” not as neutral community programming, but explicitly as children learning about “the Bible and Jesus” and growing in “faith.” That’s unacceptable- the people normalizing LifeWise are not… Read More

Three Ohio men previously involved with LifeWise Academy were recently charged or pleaded guilty to sex crimes involving minors. Three. This is not just “deeply concerning.”This is a child-safety crisis. LifeWise removes children from public school during the school day for private religious instruction. That means every parent, school board member, superintendent, and lawmaker should… Read More

We are sick and tired of public school districts handing LifeWise Academy the microphone and calling it “neutrality.” You do not get to use official school newsletters, handbooks, parent emails, school schedules, district platforms, and our children’s backpacks to advertise a private Christian program – then act shocked when parents call it what it looks… Read More

🌈 Pride Month reminder: Gay kids do not stop existing because adults are uncomfortable. Gay kids exist.They go to public schools. Gay parents exist.They send their kids to public schools. Your gay neighbor pays taxes to support the same public schools where your kids go. So let’s be very clear: 👉Public schools do not exist… Read More

🚨 They called it “school choice” because “taxpayer-funded Christian nationalist infrastructure” didn’t poll as well. Vouchers were never just about helping children find a better school…👉They were about moving public money into private religious systems that can teach exclusion, reject public accountability, discriminate against families, and train children inside a political-religious worldview. Public schools have… Read More

We suggest parents and community members start paying very close attention to who is publicly defending, promoting, or normalizing LifeWise in your district. 🚨Are they school employees?🚨School board members?🚨Volunteers?🚨District contractors?🚨People with direct access to students? Because when adults with public-school authority promote a private religious program, families have every right to ask whether that influence… Read More

Is Lifewise out here just admitting the whole scheme? 👀🤯 At a 2023 LifeWise Summit Session on “Program Sustainability,” leaders were told: “The kids, they’re really the best marketing tool.” Then she explained why: “They’re going to really impact your enrollment more than anything else.” And how? “Make your program fun… so that they go… Read More
