July 20, 2024July 20, 2024 Steve MacDonald

The New Hampshire Legislature put several pro-women, pro-child, and pro-parent bills on Governor Chris Sununun’s desk this session.

We always want and expect more, but then we must. Expectations matter, and there … Read more

PAYNE: Is It Time to Get Your Kids Out?

December 8, 2025June 1, 2024 Russ Payne

Beware of what authority figures tell you about what happened before your birth. Why do modern proponents of evolutionary theory self-edit the full title of Charles Darwin’s revolutionary book “On the Origin of Species”?

Food For Thought on Schooling

April 23, 2024 Op-Ed

I just thought of something: how about testing when starting school? Then Some kids may start in 1st grade and some may start in 2nd grade or even third. Then every year they take their “Proficiency Test” as long as they test to the next grade off they go, if not they get held back.
