Every time I read the NH Union Leader’s Tag line, I laugh. The state’s “biggest” newspaper reminds us that “There is nothin as Powerful as Truth.” How about not reporting it? That’s pretty powerful and has become the rule rather than the exception among New Hampshire “media.”

An Open Letter to the Nashua Education Community
Dear Nashua Education Community, Our city is drowning. As we close out our Holiday Break, and all take a long deep breath, and invest every ounce of hope that this year will be infinitely different than last year … we are still drowning.
Union Leader Only Gave One Side Of The Story To The Nashua Taxpayers On The Purchase Of The New School
As usual, the Union Leader only gave one side of the story to the Nashua taxpayers on the purchase of the new school.
Just Call Me Spike: Massachusetts Flooding Schools with Faulty PCR Tests
Massachusetts has a spike. It’s meaningless unless you mean to scare people unnecessarily. Here in New Hampshire, 99.83% of people who test positive on the PCR test live to tell the tale. I expect the results in Maskachusetts are similar and destined to improve after they flood the schools with these test kits.
Nashua Residents: Expect a Hefty Increase in Your Tax Bill Next Year.
Nashua residents really need to start looking at what our mayor and Board of Aldermen are doing with our tax dollars.
COVID vs. FLU … Children Ages 0 – 17.
This: So why are New Hampshire public schools taking more precautions for COVID, which kills far less school-age children than the seasonal flu, than for the seasonal flu? Rhetorical question, of course. Sununu is fully invested in COVID-hysteria (he even has an ad talking about how he is ready for a “second wave”). And Dan … Read more
Compliance Is Not Part of the U.S. Constitution
Did you know compliance is not part of the U.S. Constitution? Your government was the cause of closing down public schools. They did it for the children. Now your government is “restructuring” school. It is moving forward under the guise of “public safety.”
What to Do Now That Your School is Not Opening?
What can you do if you want your kids back in school but your School Board members (your elected representatives) have been “captured” by the staff, or as the NH School Board Association put it: defered to your professionals.
Four Ways to Spend Money on Education
As we consider just what we’ll be getting from our schools this fall, and what we’ll be paying for that, we should remind ourselves now of just why we’re all going to feel so disappointed later.
A Story About School Reopenings
“My wife, who is apparently a glutton for punishment, listened to an entire Arlington County school board meeting last night. School is online only indefinitely. She reports there was great concern expressed about, and discussion of how to help:”
If they aren’t willing to do the time, then we should take away the dime
The above is the SHOT – and now… CHASER: He’s right – WHY would we want to hand over our kids to be educated by those that DON’T WANT TO BE THERE? These same folks that have not only said that they don’t want to be there educationally but are making demands that have NOTHING … Read more
Manchester School Board Isn’t Addressing the Achievement Gap
The Manchester Board of School Committee’s resolution to address systemic and institutional racism does not go far enough. In fact, it doesn’t address one of the most important factors plaguing the school district- -illiteracy.
Quick Thought: The Educational-Industrial Complex always has this as a ready answer. ENOUGH ALREADY!
And it plays out over and over and over again. I’ve blogged a number of times: I overheard two teachers (who were also union reps) at a Town Meeting a few years mutter between themselves:
There Is No Science Supporting Sununu’s Decision to Keep NH Schools Closed
Back on April 16th, I posted about Sununu’s decision to keep New Hampshire schools closed for the remainder of the school-year: Reopening schools, based on the Ferguson model … which as you may recall initially predicted 2.2 million COVID deaths in the United States (versus the current projection of 69,000) … would cause an additional … Read more
NH Republicans Throw Down A Gauntlet to Keep Boys From Competing in Girls’ Sports
Boys claiming to be girls to compete in their sporting events was a predictable problem. It’s not a cultural or social issue; it is a genetic issue. Mother Nature, the creator, God, evolution, whomever you care to finger for the distinctions gave men and women different advantages.
Thinking outside the stall
Recently, I sat though a seemingly endless conversation about constructing a model school policy covering who can enter which restrooms under what conditions.
The #YellowNewDeal
Once upon a time, public schools were largely a response to two constraints: scarcity of educational resources, and difficulty of travel. But those constraints are no longer as significant as they once were. In particular, travel has become easy enough that many people think nothing of driving 30 miles to go out to dinner. A … Read more
The Bible in public schools- What did the founding fathers say about it?
The battle of separation of church and state has been raging for decades. Lawyers today, struggle with the idea that students and especially teachers, can bring their Bibles into school. But today, students across America are bringing their Bibles to school.
The Democrat Party has abandoned the Average American.
The leftist cabal running for president on the Democratic ticket is getting border and immigration wrong. Democrats do not understand. We do have borders. Borders do mean something.
This Transgender Business Has Only One Logical Conclusion – “Mao Suits”
Gender neutrality ought to mean you are not taking sides, but that’s not how this works. You have to take a side and guess which one it is? The left side. So, pay attention as we get a peek into the liberal mind, care of a #woke school in the UK.
