As a 15 year old, I never imagined my activism in politics would translate into controversy for me at school.
My name is Benji Backer and I attend a public high school in Appleton, Wisconsin. I have always supported the public school system and plan to do so for the rest of my lifeMany Americans who stand up for the public school system and the unions believe there is no attempt to sway opinion or that students with opposing beliefs are singled outUnfortunately, experiences I have had with harassment and bullying prove that wrong. This is a timeline of the most extreme cases of harassment and indoctrination I have had in the three different public schools I have attended over the last three years.
I am currently in my freshman year of high school and the incidents are happening more frequently and I believe are more severe.  As you can imagine, the ongoing pressure and bullyinghas been disturbing to me, my friends and my family.
Just before the 2010 Midterm election, I was on the front page of the local newspaper for my political volunteer work and my teachers noticed. One of my seven teachers made it very clear that she dissaproved of my civic engagement. In a period of two months, my Geography teacher frequently
would take me aside after school for a few minutes and tell me how stupid, wrong and misguided I was for being Republican. The harassment with this specific teacher got so bad, I had to switch schools halfway through the year.  At this time I was only 12 years old. To my knowledge, this teacher was not disciplined at all for her actions.

  • When your child is being bullied or harassed in School from the time when you’re away. They can easily summon for help with the press of the Panic Button installed on their phone. As a part of her Safety Network or being a Protector, you can extend help by tracking her location through GPS Tracking. You will also be able to communicate with your child and decide if it must be routed to the nearest 911 on the area through connecting you to the Conference Call with the 24/7 Call Center.Check this safety service here: http://www.RelentlessProtection.com
