Arizona’s tax laws and public school structure have created a system where charter schools are thriving and multiplying. They provide for a variety of needs (from the Great Heart Western Civ.-centric schools to the remedial education available to those on the margins) and facilities/resources (very local, but not much more than a store front to full-fledged sports and extra-curriculars).
They are still public schools, and to some degree compete with private and parochial schools. Fortunately, the AZ tax structure is friendly to private schools as well, so the whole system is a net gain.
Public schools today are not education and learning centers, they are propaganda centers. One thing the “pandemic” did was awaken many parents to that exact fact and made the aware of exactly what was being taught by so called teachers.
I'm saying this because I have followed the impact of money-hungry power-seeking educrats that cement themselves into the county, state, federal, and university school-manipulating structures, at least since my enrollment in the Syracuse University School of Education in 1956.
It has been said "Follow the money trail!" but this is simply a misdirection of one's attention, leading to an answerless cul-de-sac. Now, even the corporate heights are more moved by it than by fiducial profiting imperatives.
The true trail is always to follow the power-trail, the social dominance of which the single most damaging proponent has been John Dewey (click here), Marxist (click here) and antichristian educational philosopher (click here), Humanist Manifesto cosigner (click here); who stood on the shoulders of Horace Mann (click here), educational progressivist.
It is Saul Alinsky (click here), community organizer and fiery anarchist, of whom the NEA now claims as a chief theorist and motivator (click here) of its hegemony over public education, over every local, vocal concerned parental group and school-tax-payer.
Against this array, you think a charter-school implementation will survive? Mainly of the Obamacist Clintonesque Bidenites obstructionists? Antifascistas? BeLiMinators?
I think not. It is against the traditional disciplinarian warrior-trainers that these couch potatoes and their Marxist devourers have swamped; of whom the well-known Phi Beta Kappan Father of the U. S. (Nuclear) Navy Hyman G. Rickover (click here) were arrayed in the 1950s and -60s, a community of which the National Education Association of true professionals, not the current manifestation encouched in knowledge-deficient imitators of ant-hill larvae tenders governed by a local NEA Queen (male or female) administrators.
This eschatological social aura was prophesied bu The Christ, a few days by his execution at the will of thge teachers and religionistas of His Day and Hour"
"And many false prophets(teachers) shall rise, and shall deceive (the)many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love(agapay) of many shall wax cold" (Matthew 24:11-12 AV; interpretive superscripts added)Are there now many false prophet-teachers of both religious and irreligious kinds?
Yes.
Is there now a great, tolerated, effulgence of total human depravity?
Yes.
Has the sovereign preference of the interests of others above one's own failed abysmally?
Yes.
Is this true of "The Many"--the general population--in the New Testament Greek, the hoi polloi?
Yes.
Is the First Stage of the Second Coming of The Christ on the imminent horizon?
Evaluate, my FRiends! Follow the dynamic, the power-grabbing influence--not the money--eh?
We send our children to private schools mostly to protect them from stories about two daddies.
The solemn duty of every parent is to raise their children.
That duty includes keeping those children as far away from government indoctrination centers as possible.
Get your kids out.
