FULLERTON SCHOOL DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT ROBERT PLETKA SAYS THAT THE WIRELESS CLASSROOMS ARE “… TOTALLY SAFE FOR THE CHILDREN.”
Good evening Fullerton School District parents, this is Superintendent Bob Pletka. I am very pleased to announce that during the coming week, the District will be distributing over 6,000 iPads to all 5th through 8th grade students throughout our District as a part of our 1:1 VIP (Visual Innovation Program). California State Superintendent of Public Instruction, Tom Torlakson, will be joining me at Valencia Park School, Wednesday, August 27, 2014 at a press conference to announce the distribution of these iPads.
We are excited that the District’s commitment to including high-level technology that reaches beyond the classroom is becoming a reality. We are also committed to being your first source of information regarding our progress. We expect that this announcement will receive broad local news coverage, and we wanted to keep you apprised.

FULLERTON SCHOOL DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT ROBERT PLETKA SAYS THAT THE WIRELESS CLASSROOMS ARE “… TOTALLY SAFE FOR THE CHILDREN.”
I wonder if Torlakson was going to read the statement that we gave him minutes earlier in the parking lot written by The U.C. Berkeley School of Public Health telling him to shut off the wireless in the classrooms. Yea he denied in front of our camera knowing anything about our concerns even though he , his office, his facebook page and staff has been presented our concerns multiple times and even personally in his Sacramento office. Yeah this tool said he never heard of this before even though the blog tracking shows his Sacramento office’s IP address as a repeat visitor and he had me thrown out of Sharon Quirk Silva’s shin dig over a Troy last year- https://thefullertoninformer.com/insert-foot-in-mouth/ I wonder if greenhouse gas Janny Meyer realized that she left her car running with her keys in her car after she ran away from our camera? What about the $300,000 club member Mijares in the back row who came in the side door who for the better part of a year and a half, to this day ignores everything we have ever sent him and hides it from his board members? I wonder if Chaffee realizes that this is all way over his head as he goes on record stating wireless technology is “wonderful for the children” as he came up for air in front of our camera. I wonder.
Sure Torlakson is unaware of the wireless debate just like when he had me illegally thrown out on my ass from a public meeting last year, https://thefullertoninformer.com/insert-foot-in-mouth/#sthash.2jK4mSiu.dpuf
Some more info on how he knows nothing about anything.

Yes,we were there with our banners to warn the mind controlled masses, the spineless, lackey school district minions and to film and greet the brass, Berryman had no comment and the District’s IT guy hid in the shadows. Yeah the establishment is all going along for the ride as the largest unmitigated public health disaster in the making is being ordained by the most respected (depending on your subjective frame of reference) members of our community.
SO NOW THE MILLION DOLLAR QUESTION: ARE WOMEN GETTING BREAST CANCER FROM CARRYING THEIR CELL PHONES IN THEIR BRAS?
If soft tissue cancer results from wireless cell phone microwave exposure, what do we make of this wireless iPad microwave exposure?

Fullerton School District Superintendent Robert Pletka. “Your request that the district turn off wireless connectivity and remove IPads from your children’s respective classrooms….is respectfully DENIED.” 11-1-2013 letter to Joe Imbriano
HE CHOOSES TO IGNORE SCIENTIFIC STUDIES THAT WARN AGAINST WHAT HE IS FORCING ON THE STUDENTS
The Fullerton Joint Union High School District awarded an electrical contract THAT INCLUDES NO WIRELESS SYSTEMS a few months back sparing 14,000 High School students and staff who will not be be forcibly exposed to wireless microwave radiation at school which would have been trillions of times background levels. That meant that all of the hot mapping for deployment has been called off, and the wireless access points, and related equipment is sitting in a warehouse where it MAY HAVE COST THE TAXPAYERS SOME MONEY BUT AT LEAST IT can’t hurt anyone.

IPADS EMIT MORE MICROWAVE RADIATION THAN CELL PHONES
Dr Dariusz Leszczynski, Adjunct Professor, Division of Biochemistry and Biotechnology at the University of Helsinki and a member of a working group of 31 scientists from 14 countries constituted by World Health Organization (WHO) that classified cellphone radiation as possibly carcinogenic, in conversation with Maitri Porecha, reveals how leading cell phone operators and manufacturers are withdrawing funding for research, leading to closing down of laboratories studying effects of radio-frequency electromagnetic fields as emitted by wireless devices, cellphones and cell towers

Is this what you signed your kids up for gang? They might as well just put a cell tower in the room.
WHATS THE DIFFERENCE? -these transmitters are up in the air, and in the classrooms, the transmitters are between their legs.
Fullerton has quite the establishment folks. Its roots runs deep and dark in my opinion. It involves the schools, the city hall crowd, the FPD and even some of the wanna be big timers who play church on Sundays.
Fullerton’s Praetorian guard. In 2 weeks, 8000 more iPads will be going into the laps of Fullerton school children forcing 8000 households to install wireless connectivity so that they can do their homework.
The player’s club. Anyone want to join?
She is a little shy
Come and knock on our door, we’ve been waiting for you… Whoa Doug, your the man-wireless technology- “..It is great for the children..”
I believe the children of those who value their wallets over their own flesh and blood will soon learn the hard way. Their parents ignored the fact that the jury on wireless has been in for decades. The verdict was found to be comprised of cancer, ADHD, autism and infertility. Check out these women who are along for the ride:
Fullerton Council woman Jennifer Fitzgerald– Voted yes on the 4000 watt cell tower next to a school and voted yes for a homeless shelter next to a school. On school forced wireless exposure-” I don’t agree with your assertions”
TOO BAD THESE ARE NOT MY ASSERTIONS- http://ehtrust.org/wp-
https://thefullertoninformer.com/fullertons-newest-cell-tower-in-richman-park
Fitzgerald she needs to spend a little less time at the hair salon and devote a lot more time to dealing with reality.
Hilda Sugarman, Fullerton School District Trustee on iPads,
“My vision: Every single child will have one 24/7″-this one is too far gone to reason with
https://thefullertoninformer.com/hilda-sugarmans-dystopic-vision-of-wireless-ipads-every-single-child-will-have-one-247/
Jennifer Fitzgerald, Doug Chaffee and Jan Flory all voted to put a 4000 watt cell tower right on top of a community health clinic next to a school last night with Robert Pletka’s blessing. Yes it is one big happy party for these deniers.
Fullerton Councilwoman Jan Flory voted to place a 4000 watt cell tower next to a school and voted to place a homeless shelter next to a school. “I move the motion to post the ATT report on our website and approve the cell tower”-Pontius Pilate
Fullerton councilman Doug Chafeee “Your three minutes are up…” Where is the flag? I feel a draft. The tower is approved. I don’t understand radio waves and microwaves but I will vote to stick this 4000 watt antenna array right on top of a community health clinic in a park next to a school because I am up for re-election and I don’t want to be associated with the tin foil hat brigade. I just want to cozy up with my establishment cronies and union hacks. Just get me over to the arboretum.
Jennifer Fitzgerald-Curt Pringle’s Pride.How much does the city get for the tower lease again?
I wonder what Hughes is thinking while he poses for photo ops with Pletka? What does Hughes and Fitzgerald think when they send their daughters off to be irradiated at school everyday while they pretend to ignore the wireless discussion every other Tuesday night on this issue? What’s for lunch or probably nothing as that would explain their behavior. What about the five F.S.D. board members that are connected at the hips to each of these establishment deniers?
JANNY MEYER Fullerton School District Trustee who is also member of the board of the technology foundation-NO COMMENT-she just smiles at everything.
BEVERLY BERRYMAN Fullerton School District Trustee . “Thank you for forwarding this information to me. I am attempting to understand all of the data, not being a scientist, it is pretty complicated. I am continuing to follow up to ensure that we are doing what we need to do in researching the issues that you have and I know that our superintendent has been communicating with you regarding the progress of the testing. I do understand your passion for this topic and do appreciate your concern. I want you to know that even though I do not comment back in the board meetings, your concerns are being heard.”
LYNNE THORNLEY Fullerton School District Trustee. NO COMMENT of course

Cognitive dissonance in this town has quite the high price, seemingly having no end and apparently knowing no limits after thousands of studies have been presented to and ignored by these people warning against what is being done to your children.
Why do wireless and microwaves always get a pass? Did it ever occur to any of you as to why we have this explosion of Down Syndrome babies born to very young mothers today? How about Testicular Cancer in young men from the cell phones in their pockets, wireless laptops, tablets and gaming controllers in their laps, Prostate Cancer in young men, Autism, ADHD in our young children, Infertility in our young men and women, Atrial Fibrillation in our parents, heart murmers arising out of nowhere in our children, kids dropping dead at school, bizarre rheumatic conditions and all the other forms of Cancer today? Close your eyes and pretend this is all a conspiracy theory while the emission levels go off the charts all around us. This stuff is not natural and is trillions of times the normal background levels. Wake up.
When Federal Legislation is written to forcibly irradiate you and your children with categorical exemptions for cellular infrastructure jammed down our leaders throats, the last thing we need is ill informed, spineless lackeys and educrats making health decisions for you and your children in areas where there are no categorical exemptions like classrooms.
I wonder if It ever occurred to any of these reprehensatives that this is a decision well above their pay grade as well as their intellect and has been placed there by design replete with 1st and 10th amendment violations just for good measure as icing on the cake. I wonder where we would be today if the same pass that wireless is being given was given to DDT, tobacco, asbestos, dioxin, mercury, BPA or any other loving compound? I wonder. Yeah the government never lies and scientists would never serve up results catered to order.
Folks that is exactly what we have and you are all going along for the ride. So why do they roll the dice with your kids?
The welcome wagon was rolling nice and smoothly for a feel good time and happy party over at EV Free last Friday for all the accessories to the forced irradiation of 14,000 school children in the FSD with FSD and FPD top brass as well as hack council members that have demonstrated their total willful ignorance of this issue .
Pletka’s in the pulpit at EV Free
Well, I wonder if any of these cats opened The Word to 1 Timothy 6:10 that was staring them in the face on the back of the pew at their little shin dig last week.
I prefer the King James Translation over the New American Standard-
So why do they roll the dice with your kids again?
“I’m holding it up as a model for the state,” said Tom Torlakson, state superintendent of public Instruction, said at the presentation.
THE LOVE OF MONEY IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL.
In closing, I have been asked to please share this letter with the world .
An Open Letter from Traci Frantz On Cell Phone Safety
My name is Traci Frantz and I live in Strasburg, Pennsylvania. On January 4, 2012 my
daughter, Tiffany, was diagnosed (in Lancaster, PA) with Invasive Ductal Carcinoma in her left breast.
Tiffany submitted to genetic testing and, as a family, we underwent genetic counseling. Genetic tests
including BRCA1, BRCA2 and TP53 tested negative. Therefore, there is no genetic predisposition to
breast cancer. However, Tiffany stored her cell phone in her bra (against her bare skin) for at least 5
years, every day, all day (12 hours/day) and the masses that were found lined up exactly with where she
stored her cell phone.
By November of 2012, Tiffany had a left mastectomy, radiation therapy and reconstructive
surgeries (at Hopkins) and we were convinced that the cancer had been removed and obliterated by 6
weeks of radiation therapy. However, in March of 2013 it was discovered via PET scan and MRI (in
Lancaster, PA) that Tiffany’s breast cancer had metastasized to her hip, pelvis, spine, sternum and
skull. Tiffany underwent surgery to insert a plate into her left hip as a stabilizer and 2 weeks of radiation
to treat the tumor that was quite sizeable. She currently is undergoing monthly Zometa IV treatments
(for 2 years) and daily Tamoxifen treatments (for 5 years).
We most recently (June 2014) have been informed that according to her latest PET scan, her
cancer has metastasized to her liver.
The wording that is being advocated for is already in the owner’s manual which no one takes the
time to read. Cell phone manufacturers KNOW there is a danger otherwise they would not include it in
their verbage. We are only asking for it to be better seen by the consumer at the point of sale for the
sole purpose of heeding caution and for nothing more. Have you and your family taken the time to read
your owner’s manual? Have you and your family heeded the advice your cell phone manufacturer
recommends?
I WISH there would have been a warning on the outside of the box for ALL of us to read
My daughter may not have to fight for her life if it were!!!
Traci Frantz
PARENTAL COGNITIVE DISSONANCE DEFINED. To the fool, the ultimate way to electronically babysit while you all wine a bit. I am telling you, your children are gonna lose it all.
What do you think these devices are doing to your daughters’ eggs ladies and gentlemen? What about your sons’ reproductive organs? I believe that there are no accidents here gang. I believe that this is all being done on purpose. They are jamming wireless down your throats and up your backsides.
BREAK YOUR CONDITIONING FOLKS.

YOUR ENTIRE LINEAGE IS ON THE LINE
#1 by Joe Imbriano on September 3, 2014 - 11:30 pm
While Pletka stays stuck on stupid, Refuse to Use is a world-wide Movement by responsible and futuristic thinking parents and teachers to ban all school-based technology for children under 12 years of age, and bring back tried and true methods of teaching. The 0-12 years are formative for brain and body development, and are a fragile time when deprivation and damage can be permanent.
Four critical factors for enhancing child development, behaviour, and learning are movement, touch, connection, and nature. Technology stops children from engagement in these critical factors. Technology is sedentary, isolating, overstimulating, and results in child neglect, causing delays in child development, problematic and difficult to manage behaviours, as well as limited attention and learning ability. Teachers teach, not technology. Join the Refuse to Use Movement by reading “Ten reasons to NOT use technology in schools for children under the age of 12 years”, and signing the petition to show your support.
They don’t need it. In fact, education technology appears to be doing more harm than good in the areas of literacy and overall academic performance. If education technology is so great, why has Canada dropped out the top 10 to 13th, and the US is ranked 27th on the PISA, a global test for math, science, and reading (PISA 2013)? Half of grade eight students do not demonstrate job entry literacy (National Center for Education Statistics 2010). Use it or you lose it rings true: today’s fast paced technology doesn’t appear to require frontal lobe activity, causing atrophy in the very area of the brain that should be growing (Dunckley V, 2014). This means, according to the Learning Paradox, the more you use this technology the less likely you are to learn. Today’s students are quite possibly only as smart as their device.
Not research evidenced. While education technology holds promise for the future, too much too soon has been shown to have perilous consequences. While every parent would like their child to grow up with the knowledge and skills needed to be successful as an adult, pushing apps around a screen at one year of age is likely to result in exactly the opposite. The face of technology will change significantly over the next 5 to 10 years. Teaching tech to toddlers now is senseless and vastly detrimental to their developing brain and body.
It’s not proven to be safe. Children are being forced by schools to absorb potentially harmful radiation without choice or parental consent. In 2011, the World Health Organization classified radiation emitted from technology devices, including laptops, cell phones, tablets, wifi, routers, to be a Class 2B carcinogen (WHO 2011). Health Canada followed with warnings to parents to use “precautionary measures” regarding technology use, and to not allow children under 12 to carry cell phones in their pockets. In 2013, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) requested the Federal Trade Commission to reinvestigate radiation effects on children, citing thinner skulls, more aqueous brain tissue, and rapidly dividing cells (AAP 2013).
Recent research suggests that the electromagnetic (EMF) and radio frequency (RF) radiation emissions from cell phones and laptops are causing reduction in sperm motility and sperm DNA fragmentation (Avendano 2012) as well as acoustic neuromas (Hardell 2013). Without long term data demonstrating safety, continuing to expose children to devices categorized as possible carcinogens seems beyond all common sense or reason, and is an infringement of individual right and freedom from harm. Would schools continue in this manner, if they were to be held personally responsible for their actions? School wifi waiver forms can be found at Citizens for Safe Technology website.
Pediatrician guidelines actively ignored. Both the AAP and the Canadian Paediatric Society released policy stating the following limits: no technology exposure for 0-2 years, 1 hour/day for 3-5 years, and 2 hours/day for 6-18 years, yet the average child uses 4 to 5 times that amount of entertainment technology before they even get to school (AAP 2014). Additional school-based education technology usage is estimated to average 2-3 hours per day.
How can this happen? Teachers, school boards, parent advisory committees…right on up to the highest levels of education government have not only sanctioned escalating usage, but are encouraging it. To actively ignore policy put in place by two of the world’s largest paediatric organizations, who represent all the paediatricians in North America, is not only unethical and unprofessional but could, in the near future, be considered an indictable offence.
Sedentary bodies can’t learn. Research abounds that exercise enhances attention and learning (Ratey J 2008), yet schools continue to restrict movement through recess reduction and boring playgrounds. At the same time provision of sedentary, expensive, and useless technology explodes. As sedentary lifestyles become the norm, developmental delay and obesity escalate, right along with inability to pay attention and learn.
Highly anxious children can’t learn. Anxiety is the fastest growing child mental illness. Technology isolates children from not only the attentions of parent and teacher, but also from potential cooperative learning with other students. Immersion in a virtual world that is fast paced, immediate, “me” focused, reward-based, and totally in the student’s control, causes immense difficulties transitioning back into the real world. Waiting, taking turns, and socializing with other children are daunting and difficult for the tech immersed child. Poor self-regulation, tantrums, impulsivity, aggression, and explosive violence in North American children are now the norm. Selfie was the 2013 word of the year.
Impossible to manage and monitor. A Los Angeles school had to recall all its iPads from students as it couldn’t keep them from accessing porn, video games, Facebooking and texting. Teachers and parents like to console themselves by thinking children are doing their homework. Well…they aren’t; 95 percent of time children spend on tech devices is for mindless entertainment purposes, not education.
Highly addictive. A 2009 study indicated 1 out of 11 children aged 8 to18 years are addicted to technology (Gentile D 2009). Never in the history of humankind have there been child addictions. Though treatment is difficult and expensive, in the near future this will be the job of every health and education professional — addressing student tech addictions. Schools wouldn’t give children cocaine or crack, yet they readily hand out an equally damaging and addictive device to students on a daily basis. Starting now to restrict usage in school settings would send a message to students and parents that it is imperative to reduce the use of technology, before it’s too late.
Displaces the basics. Remember the 3 R’s – reading, writing and arithmetic? Teaching printing is passé, and reading and math instruction are increasingly relegated to two-dimensional screens. Yet whenever a child is tested prior to age 12 years, on any subject, they’re expected to be proficient with printing. When children learn to print, they create a visual memory for letter recognition in reading. When they practice printing over and over, their printing speeds get fast, allowing them to free up their brains for spelling, sentence production, and math.
Not teaching children to print ensures illiteracy and academic failure. If adults were told to print all day every day in a foreign language, but not given proper instruction or teaching, how long would they continue this insane task? Students who do not demonstrate subconscious motor planning for letters and numbers by grade three, are very slow printers, hate school, and resist all subjects requiring printing output.
Not sustainable. The ways in which parents and teachers are raising and educating children with technology are not sustainable. It’s time to bring the tech train back to the station and rethink who, what, when, where, why and how parameters to safely and effectively use technology with children. Join the Refuse to Use Movement petition below to stop use of school-based technology with children under the age of 12 years until such time as research indicates safety and efficacy.
