Only ways to improve your children’s educational opportunities are to eliminate Common Core and ESSA, and reinstitute genuine educational standards and policies
U. S. Education - Ask And You Shall Receive (As You Are Being Deceived)!
While Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey are envying, from their graves, the circus centered around who will be the next inhabitant of the puppet hut at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, many core issues are not being discussed. Depending upon where you live, school may be beginning this week. Caring and anxious parents will refocus their efforts to provide their children with the best education options available. Parents need to beware of what they ask for, because, as they ask, they will be deceived about what they and their children will receive!
For many of us engaged in the fight against Common Core and the theft of local control of education, it has been disappointing that so many caring parents, teachers, administrators, clergy and politicians fail to grasp the gravity of the continuing, purposeful degradation of education in America. As I was reading an email from Charlotte Iserbyt, a preeminent crusader for children and against almost all things in U. S. education since before becoming a whistleblower while serving within the Reagan administration, a thought struck me. Maybe we need to change our narrative, so that we can ‘tear down that wall’ between us and those who fail to see the evils embedded within our educational system.
