Pleasant Lies or Painful Truth
It is coming time for us to choose between pleasant lies or painful truth. Do federal policymakers really know how to improve productivity in the American economy? The answer seems to be NO. Education is a large sector of the American economy. If educational results are an indication, the answer is definitely in the negative.
Students Deserve the Best Education Possible
All our state’s students deserve the best education possible, and many people contribute to making that happen. Parents, teachers and school officials are all critical in the effort to educate our kids and help them unlock their potential. But our state legislators are also important, because they help set the overall approach that schools take … Read more
If NH is Too White Why Did Dem’s Reject Money for a Program That Attracts Minorities?
Democrats say that New Hampshire is too white. There isn’t enough color. They also believe that the government can fix it. Probably not. But when the chance arose for the government to do something that attracts minorities, they chose to vote against it.
Yet Another Example of Public Schools Telling Parents, “screw you!”
Any time you hear about “social justice” in schools, yank children out of there any way possible – “Social Justice” is nothing more than Leftist indoctrination of your precious ones.
Democrats Unions – Oppose Educational-Excellence
Democrats’ plan at the national, state and local level is to support unions and oppose educational excellence. They are working to curb or reverse the spread of charter schools. Our kids are brilliant and curious. It’s not fair to keep them down by not supporting education that works.
Only You Can Keep Wakefield Common-Core Free
Wakefield is holding another public session on a potential introduction of Common Core to its curriculum. As noted here, back in October, the town has – until now – shown no interest in the standard. Now it seems like something or someone is hot to embrace it.
Lessons in Left-Wing Activism are Now Part of Elementary School Curriculum
Very few things about this hobby make me go, ‘what the..?’. This, I admit, comes close. Public schools are not just filling heads with progressive mush. The curriculum includes educating elementary school kids in radicalized left-wing community organizing.
Commissioner Frank Edelblut: The Legislature should trust educators and parents
From its inception, the idea of public charter schools has been to free public education from the burden of excessive and restrictive rules that prevent educators from being effective.
But does the Left even believe in God anymore?
A bit late for Veterans Day but the idea behind this is applicable almost every day: …but in my opinion, the biggest threat to America’s future is our unbelievably bad public school system. It is hard for those (like me) who went through the public schools decades ago to understand how much things have changed. … Read more
Letter to Legislators who Tabled $46 Million in Federal Aid for NH Charter Schools
Last Friday, hearing news that the Joint Legislative Fiscal Committee tabled an enormous $46M opportunity to further education in our state, was both troubling and heartbreaking for a number of reasons – primarily for children and families but also overloaded educators.

Why NH Democrats Didn’t Jump at 46 Million in Federal Funds (Free Money!)
Democrats love other people’s money. Nothing they imagine for the government (or their role in it) is possible without that. So, why would they step back from an opportunity at 46 million (free dollars!) in Federal Funds? Tax money they didn’t have to vote to steal.
10-Year-Old Girls in California School Learn How to Put On Condoms in Disturbing “Condom Race”

Foul Mouthed Intolerance and Hate
House Republican Leader Dick Hinch issued a statement after reviewing a Facebook post by Rep. Tamara Le (D-North Hampton), where she says, “F**k private and religious schools.” Rep.

White Privilege Alert: AP, Honors, And College Credit High School Programs Discriminate
Democrat policies destroy the family and dumb down education. So, it’s only natural that anyone capable of any level of achievement must have some other advantage. And to be fair to everyone else, let’s put the brakes on that and end honors and AP classes in High School.
Where Is American Education Today?
Recently Mick Zais, the U.S. Deputy Secretary of Education, visited Concord to deliver an assessment. Here are some excerpts from the address he delivered.
Education in one picture
Back in the 1980s, David Letterman’s show occasionally featured something he called The Museum of the Hard to Believe. Here’s something that I think belongs in that museum: A typical school district in New Hampshire spends more money on a 10th grader than it does on a 3rd grader.
Who is Opposed to Educational Opportunities
Children have one opportunity at an education that fits their needs. Education is not one-size-fits-all; even good public schools cannot meet the unique needs of every child. This is why we are passionate about supporting children and families to access that “right fit” educational option, whether it is local public schools, chartered public schools, private … Read more
Edelblut, Cline Statements on Vote to Delay Learn Everywhere – Status Quo isn’t working for many NH students
