Yeah . . . about to get my allergies calmed down enough to go back to bed myself.

Have a fulfilling Tuesday.

Hope to spend the afternoon at pottery.

You have no idea of what Obama and Bill Ayres have in mind for public schools. They think of public schools as community organizing tools. They think a diploma in the study of victimhood is just as good or better than a diploma in the study of math and reading.

Obama has appointed the superintendent of Chicago schools as the federal education guy. The man has experience implementing the Bill Ayers type "small schools" that showed no progress in education in Chicago, but did graduate more kids. If you think public school education is bad now, just wait.

Obama and Ayers Pushed radicalism on Schools

I am too, but I’m not so sure it matters any more. My current thinking on the subject is expressed in my tagline, which remains unaltered since the election.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

One word...egalitarianism.

Spend a kajillion dollars on inner city schools and maybe you can socially engineer equality of outcomes instead of equality of opportunity.

It never occurs to them that there is a possibility that....

A. The kids are just plain stupid.
B. They have no fathers.
C. They are out gangbaning and listening to gangsta rap.
D. Mom is a crack whore.

Time is up....this was a timed test. The correct answer for liberals who are curious why the drop out rate is so high in inner city pubik skools is:

Sometimes I wonder just when the desired results of today actually started.

Probably junior high school.
