Hump Day Overnight Thread – “(Almost) Everyone Suddenly Loves the Budget” Edition
I am privy to many details about many things that I am more often than not prohibited from sharing (by request). You get to guess because I’m never going to reveal a confidence deliberately. But I’m not above teasing. And this will be teasing.
Thank You for Ruining My Kids’ Education. Now You Will Answer for It.
Good evening, As I discuss with my son his socialist, feckless, “everyone gets a trophy” grading system that YOU ignored the petition of over 300 students and parents to change; and as I now KNOW that many of you signed into effect a transgender policy whereby teachers can call MY kids doorknobs, he, she, they, it, etc. without ANY parental knowledge;
CRT DEMANDS that it be Fed – Stack of Stuff Part 7
And onward we traipse through that sludge known as Critical Race Theory (CRT) – the pestilence that is just as bad as Audrey II in Little Shop of Horrors except there’s no humor at all.
Superintendent Ryan Must Be Removed From Office.
If you attended either school board meeting in Exeter Monday or Tuesday, this would be crystal clear. It is US vs THEM. No, I’m not talking Republican vs Democrat or even conservative vs liberal.
The Democrat Party is Undermining Our Economy and Our Security
I’m concerned seeing nightly films of the flood of people coming into our country illegally with no checks, all unknown histories and characters as the Federal administration spokespersons tell us “the border is closed.”
Online Survey – Tell The NH Dept of Education What You Think About CRT, Lockdowns, Masks
Below is a notice from the NHDOE inviting the parents to participate in a survey. The links don’t require any credentials to get to the survey, so you can all take a look and see what you think of the surveys.
The Left Has Handed You the Way to Take Back Our Schools (With Gov. Sununu’s Unintended Blessing)
I had the privilege of being a guest speaker at a Republican Committee Meeting this week. One of the things I spoke about was something I speak to at length on these pages and often. Critical Race Theory is bullying, and it’s a Free Pass from the left for us to take back our schools.
Who’s Afraid of Education Freedom?
Change is coming to our outdated education system. So far this year, more than a dozen states have enacted policies that empower families to choose their child’s learning environment using the public funds set aside for their child. The “Live Free or Die” state could be next—so long as special interests don’t get their way.
Commissioner Edelblut: Don’t Lower The Standards for Licensing Teachers in New Hampshire
I’m writing today to respond to a letter drafted by the State Advisory Committee on the Education of Students with Disabilities re: PRAXIS and other standardized tests relative to teacher certification.
Minnesota BLM Leader Quit When He Realized Black Lives Matter But Not to “Black Lives Matter”
Minneapolis is ground zero for mistreating black lives in the name of black lives. Black Lying Marxists use people of color to advance a political program detrimental to black lives, children, education, and their future.
With HB544 Dead It’s Time to Start Suing NH Schools – CRT Violates NH Anti-Bullying Laws
This is not the first time I’ve brought this up, but since the legislative effort to prevent this abuse has failed, it’s time to look for bigger guns. Lawyers and lawsuits as far as the eye can see.
This Won’t Make Any Points With Progressives
I’m working hard to convince TMEW to homeschool the Grandson. She’s agreed, as a former teacher, to do a test trial over the summer as more and more I keep coming across material that Reading, Writing, and ‘Rithmetic are the core academic priorities.
It’s Time for Public Schools to Focus On Academics.
Commissioner Edelblut, I want to take this opportunity to thank you for bringing Ian Rowe to the State Board of Education meeting on March 15th. This was a wonderful presentation that I believe highlights the importance of refocusing on literacy in the classroom.
Why is Systemic Racism Apparent Mostly in Democrat Controlled Cities?
We’re told that America is “systemically racist.” I don’t agree, but parts of America appear to be treated in a “systemically racist” way. “Systemic” means a system, an organization, or process with legal authority.
Everything the Left Does Looks Like This
In 2010, having suffered successive years of Democrat majority legislatures, and reckless spending, Democrat governor John Lynch decided (perhaps as a distraction) that the state should “reduce” the school dropout rate to near-zero.
Endless Lawsuits to Funnel Limitless Amounts of Money to Failing Government Schools
With the realization that many of our state and national elections have been determined by pre-programmed ballot counting machine voter fraud, people who now want to get involved need a basic set of documents for research.
The ConVal Education Funding Decision … or How Chris Sununu Wasted Three Supreme Court Nominations
Here is the most important (and remarkable) part of the decision that was issued on March 23rd, but I have not had the time to comment on it until now.
Public School STEM Equity – The Left Continues Its Gentrification of Education
Economic leveling is an idea sold as making poor people more equal. What it does is make more Middle-Class people poor while the elite ruling class gets richer. At least one State Board of education has applied this thinking to math. They want to hold kids back so others will feel more equal.
Speak Out Against the Mass Social Indoctrination in Our Schools [Updated]
Today, students at Bedford High School are taking part in a school-supported “day of silence” described as a “silent demonstration” for LGBTQA+ rights. Participation earns students 6 “Democracy Hours,” hours that count as “Real World Learning Hours,” a requirement for graduation.
