ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

Just another small step towards implimenting it for everyone. It's for the (poor, underprivileged, abused, minority) children. Then they'll just expand the definition of *poor, underprivileged, abused, and minority* until it encompasses everyone.

minority students need the help to bridge the achievement gap between them and their white counterparts.

Satan & Company's greatest success towards this goal has been to knock white achievement down.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

Say no to the SOCIALIST INDOCTRINE CENTERS!!!

[Tired of Taxes]

called on school districts nationwide to create community schools that would offer services to students and their families ranging from health care to recreation.

Where I live, the schools offer what we call "community education", but it's different from Weingarten's proposal:

Here, the programs are offered through the school district in the afterschool and summer hours. But most of them are offered by the private sector and independent teachers, and parents pay out-of-pocket. I'm guessing most school districts across the nation offer such programs, too.

But, I guess Weingarten wants all of the programs covered by the taxpayers. That's the difference. Better keep an eye on this one.
