Informed Parents of California
A nonprofit 501(c)(3)
About Us
Informed Parents of California (IPCA) is a grassroots, nonprofit organization created by community leaders in California. Team members include parents, grandparents, former elected officials, teachers, business and neighborhood leaders. We are focused on a family values based, child centered curriculum.
The three R’s seem to be ignored in California public schools. Only 46.6% of students tested at Met or Exceed Standard on the State English/Language Arts test and just 34.6% tested at Met or Exceed Standard in Math. Those are “F”s in both ELA and Math! How are we preparing our children to face life in the 21st century?
We humbly and respectfully speak truth to power. We stand unwaveringly for Parent's Rights & Parental Control, Transparency between the school and parents, and an Increase in State Performance Test Scores.
For Our Children
Our children are the victims of a widespread campaign to fundamentally change our society and reset the moral values that have guided our country since its founding.
Parents are increasingly becoming alarmed and angry at what their children are taught…or not taught...in our public schools.
And yet, in California, we have increased the amount spent per student per year from
$11,548* in 2017 to $17,020* per student in 2022, while English/Language Arts scores dropped from 49.9%* in 2018 to 46.6%* in 2023 and Math scores dropped from 38.7%* in 2018 to 34.6%* in 2023. Obviously, with test scores declining and spending per student increasing, the system is failing our parents and students. (*numbers come from: https://www.cde.ca.gov/)
How transparent is your child's school?
Parents, you have the right to know. Your child's school has the duty to inform you when there is a material change or event that occurs in your child's educational experience.
We strongly recommend that parents seek a Transparency Policy similar to the Transparency Policy adopted by the Chino Valley.
Isn't it time you take control?
Informed Parents strongly recommends that you home school your child. If that won’t work for you and your family, consider a private school teaching a classical education.
If that alternative is not feasible, Opt your child out of any tests, surveys, counseling,
and/or evaluation relative to your child and your family’s personal behavior regarding
sex, family life, nationality or religion and beliefs including honesty, integrity, sociability
or self-esteem.
