House of Horrors

For years, we’ve hesitated to share the stories we witness daily—the abuses happening in so-called “good” schools across the country. That ends today.

We’re done pretending that the constant threats—student-on-student violence, school shootings, sexual assault, abuse by teachers and administrators, LGBTQI+ indoctrination, Marxist instruction, pornography in libraries and classrooms, anti-human environmentalism, anti-Christian religious instruction, anti-American multiculturalism, anti-family sex education, and anti-science gender ideology—are not an existential threat to our children, our families, our nation, and the Church.

Schools are not safe places. Parents, it’s time to bring your children home. We’re here to help you do it.
