Dear Parents and Guardians, 

In light of the recent tragedy, Oklahoma schools will join together to honor the memory of Charlie Kirk who engaged high school and college students to talk about American exceptionalism, Christianity's role in society and our country’s history, as well as conservative values. He challenged students to think for themselves, value free speech, and engage in meaningful debate. 

Tomorrow at 12:00 p.m., September 16th, our schools will hold a moment of silence to reflect on his legacy. We invite parents, families, and Oklahomans everywhere to join us from wherever you are and unite in remembrance.

This moment is about coming together to honor a man who believed in empowering the next generation with courage and conviction.

Thank you for standing with us.

Superintendent Ryan Walters

Give your kid/s a day off school in protest. Much better than allowing any exposure to far right indoctrination.

Personally I like that idea the best. The OP is heated, but when they calm down, an email back to let the school know why as well. I mean it likely won't change their mind, but making your point and including some reliable sources, maybe they'll think about it. Either outcome, at least you're kid isn't giving this guy a moment of silence and believing that nonsense about him.

That's a great idea. Actually they want it at noon and they go to lunch at 11. And rhey have off campus lunch. He can just come on then. We don't live far from the school either.
