It appears that leftist educators are at it again with shenanigans afoot in Dane County, Wisconsin, where parents are demanding answers after they said their conservative kids were segregated from their classmates, with some students calling them "Nazis."
First reports were coming in from Middleton and later from McFarland, with parents in both districts reporting that their high school students were forced to declare their political leanings.

Social Media Director for Moms for Liberty and Conservative activist Scarlett Johnson shared the news on X. She wrote that in the district in Middleton, "High school students were told to stand up in class, publicly declare their political affiliation, list their top issues, and post them on a hallway bulletin board. Students who identified as conservative were reportedly called 'n@zi's.'"
Mom's for Liberty shared a letter from one mom.

It read:
A teenage girl in Middleton, WI was ordered to write her full name on a square in the high school hallway and publicly declare herself as Republican, Democrat, or Independent. She refused at first—because she had just overheard other students pointing at the 'red' squares and sneering: 'all those people are N@zis.'
She told the history teacher she was afraid. She explained what she'd heard. The teacher dismissed her and ordered her to participate anyway. She was described as shaking after being forced to 'out herself' politically in front of peers. This is intimidation, not education. This is what happens when schools trade neutrality for activism.
The post included a photo of the hallway bulletin board with the politics of the students on display for all to see and criticize.
The group also shared a letter from a parent in McFarland, reporting a similar situation.
The letter read:
"My daughter is a —-. All students had to stand up and declare their political affiliation and three issues. They are dividing our kids and making them uncomfortable."
"This isn't civics," Johnson wrote. "This is forced political disclosure. Our kids deserve classrooms free from political litmus tests. Parents deserve answers.
In another post, the conservative group shared a copy of the letter the students from the different school districts received about the class assignment.
Please reach out to me or @VickiMcKenna if your child has experienced something similar in Wisconsin.

RedState has reached out to both school districts and received a response from Middleton.
The response can be seen below. But to simplify it, they have decided to no longer make students publicly declare their political affiliation and have it on display for all to see.
Block quote:
"Our District is aware of concerns involving an activity in our Legislative Semester course at Middleton High School. As part of the semester-long government simulation process, students declared a party affiliation (Democrat, Republican, Independent) in order to form leadership structures and caucuses. For more information about the Legislative Semester, follow this link.
Teachers of the course follow a prescribed curriculum, which has been taught at our high school for 12 years. It has long been a popular class among students that emphasizes student agency, civil discourse, and a collaborative approach.
Educators and administrators at Middleton High School had conversations with teachers, students, and parents. It’s important to note that any students who requested to opt out of the activity were able to do so. We also know that teachers involved in this course did not threaten or intimidate students. We are actively and aggressively investigating any reports of student-to-student harassment as a result of participation in the activity. We have extensive support systems in place through Student Services as well as our anonymous online reporting tool, Speak Up Speak Out.
Through our conversations with students and their families, we learned publicly declaring a party affiliation as part of the course has made some students uncomfortable. Because of safety concerns and student input, we have removed the political spectrum display where party declarations were documented. Going forward, students in the course will continue to be given the opportunity to make a party declaration privately.
During the 2024 election, President Donald Trump overwhelmingly won the young male voters. A huge reason for Trump's victory was the work done by the late Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, who conducted massive outreach on college campuses, making it cool to hold conservative views among younger generations.
Therefore, now it appears leftists will take that next step and try to crush this wave of conservatism in young minds. The good news is that it will backfire on them just as beautifully as their attempts to force us to say men are women and vice versa.
