It's official: Texas just set the US education system back 40 years
Quote:
It really is that simple. Individual states should not have a say in how textbooks are written; there should be a national standard. This is a sad and scary day for the US. All those old conservative blowhards that are dying out are gonna be replaced by a generation of kids taught about the same shit, but even more refined and politicized. The changes will require kids to learn about the Contract with America and the NRA for fuck's sake, as though they are the foundation of this fucking country. I am sick to my stomach. |

People who thought that the state should have a monopoly over education are reaping what they've sown.

This is why the government should have no control over education (and likewise why no public funding should go to schools).
Charter schools, vouchers and education tax incentive credits ftw. Basically no one should be forced to go to a public school just because of where they live. To the op though, teaching constituiton republic ideas is educationally correct. As is stating this country was founded on Christian ideals. Those are truths. That is correct history, emphasis on history. |

Charter Schools fail at the same rate public schools do. There was a huge article in the NYT about it a few weeks ago talking about how celebrities throw money at the ones that are already succeeding in order to make it appear as though they're all wonderful and perfect.
What do you really think would happen if the government invested no money in public education? You cannot honestly think that that makes practical sense. |

Charter schools are just another option - ETIC and vouchers are key. US public education is awful - insanely awful - and the govt just throws more money at it, like money has ever solved public education's horrific failures. |

It never has and never will (or never should be) referred to as a country that was founded on mostly Christian beliefs/ideals. Sorry. Last edited by Gish08 : 05-22-2010 at 05:26 PM. |

btw, this is an important article. It shows you how crazy these people really are.
Say hello to the ideological trash that is now dictating that a skewed version of US History be taught to most of the nation's children: Quote:

This is a great victory for our country. Libtards have been pushing the agenda of America being an evil country that owes everyone except whites an apology. You can see this as the main theme of Obama and his "presidency." Now school children will be able to hear actual history instead of revisionist lies and insignificance trumped up as major events.

Functionally, the state would never, ever copulate to that even it it were the overwhelming view of the people (which it never would be). So no. |
