I am trying in my district review some of the curriculum materials they are using. I thought to write some articles or something to let parents know what is in the books. A group of parents working on this project would have a great deal of impact, I think.

One of the books they use to teach history to the advanced students in high school is the "people's history of the united states" by Howard Zinn, which deconstructs our true history and promotes collectivism. Its an awful book.

That's excellent you are doing this. At least here, in the thoroughly corrupt district where we live, there is little history being taught and what is being taught is wrong and detrimental. The only point I was making before is that the public school system is occupied by those who do not want anything but revisionist history.

We DID have our children in public school at one time. There was no dealing with it much less changing it when the kids were there. We saw too much. The final straw for us (one of many straws) was when my oldest came home with an assignment to "write a witch's spell" in honor of the release of the latest Harry Potter movie. This assignment is one he got from his MATH TEACHER who proclaimed himself to be a practicing Pagan to the class. That was enough for us to know we could not change a damned thing there.
