Help Safeguard Our Students against Club America The 2026-27 school year is about to start and it’s expected that we Club America, created by TurningPointUSA founder Charlie Kirk, will be seeking to establish and expand its extracurricular club chapters in our area high schools. Whether a school had a chapter in the 2025-26 school year ( as did FM, Baldwinsville, Cicero-North Syracuse, Bodley (Fulton), Mexico Academy and Moore (Central Square), a new school year requires a new application to establish a club chapter. If you are interested in knowing more and working to protect our students with us, please respond using this form.

Our current political environment is fraught with danger, in both the real and digital world.
Indivisible National has published a guide with some suggestions for increasing your safety, as well as those around you.
We’ve added the link to our website; each Thursday, we’ll highlight one of the suggestions.
Privacy-focused maps/navigation
Google Maps is the #1 app for navigation, and it also does an excellent job of tracking your movements. There is no setting that makes Google Maps forget your movements, because your trips are part of what the service is built to collect. The only real fix is a map that routes on your own device and keeps no account. Instead of routing every trip through a company that profits from knowing your movements, these apps use open map data from OpenStreetMap and do their routing on your device. You download the regions you need ahead of time, and navigation works offline, so there is no account to create and no location history building up in the background.
And as an added bonus, they can still find Lake Ontario and the Gulf of Mexico. Suggested Alternatives
