A few weeks ago, education guru Marc Tucker came to NH to speak to the legislature. We must not neglect to mention that the takeover of the system and brainwashing of students is but one essential piece of the plan for the progressive regionalization and eventual totalitarian restructuring of the country and the world.
Our take on the Marc Tucker speech in Concord last week…
While many of our colleagues are to be commended for doing their best to expose Common Core “standards” as inferior, we say, to even discuss the program as if it had anything to do with academic “standards” is to give CC a legitimacy it does not deserve.
There are no academic “standards” involved in CC or any of the other federal programs that have been handed down over the years on the advice of illegal and unqualified representatives of special interest groups like Marc Tucker’s.
While Tucker sought to pump the maximum fear into parents — that if Common Core were not adopted, their children would not be able to ‘compete globally’ — keep in mind that not one of these educrats from the education industry or their local mouthpieces have ever been able to define the term “compete globally”. Common sense would tell you that to compete anywhere, you simply need to know your subject areas, whether it be math, languages, or the sciences. But there is no common sense in Common Core. It is merely a way to infuse the collectivist mindset of the state upon the children and to prepare them for the global utopia envisioned and dreamed of by these auxiliary elites. Numerous examples can be seen just about anywhere, for example, in any school exercise — most recently we saw one that suggested obeisance to the state, and the tromping of individual rights for the “collective” — both presented as fact — and matter-of-factly in a lesson about apostrophes.
After what we have seen done to children in the public schools for the last 35 years, here is our advice: parents need to march down to their nearest local school board and demand that all political agendas be scrubbed from the curriculum, and teachers be put back in charge of teaching a course of academics with a solid scope and sequence that does not include the fear mongering by the extreme-left, anti-constitutional, political “change agents” and proponents of international rule.
Notice to the criminals who have illegally seized our educational system and are using our children for political mules — the gloves are off and we are coming after you.
