Aurora and Littleton are middle class suburbs of Denver. Aren’t those like suburbs of any major city in America?
Because government schools are not allowed to put crazy kids elsewhere.
School vouchers still tax people who have no kids in the system. Any parent that has no children or home-schools their children should pay no school taxes.
Almost, but they do lean further to the left. Their “conservatism” is a far cry from the conservatism of some of the Midwestern and southern states (exceptions being states like Florida, with large influxes from the northeast and left coast).
Then put them nowhere. Stay at home kid-—you’re nucking futz.
The shooting at the Amish school was not by any student there - it was an intruder if I recall.
Colorado has been filling with people from the northeast and west coast for generations. I’ve found that while not absolute, people with more generations of Americans behind them are more likely to be good neighbors.
[The moral rot is so pervasive that it has infected both the public and private spheres. The followers of Alinsky,Marcuse and Gramsci have been very effective in their work. Satan’s little helpers.]
Yes, these men are/were Cultural Marxists.
The rot you spoke of is cultural rot.
We are in a cultural war, therefore our task and goal should be to restore a moral culture to the nation.
This means small groups of moral and cultured people must quietly form and lead small schools that the kid’s parents choose.
This will be most unpleasant but it must be done. We will lock horns with the unions (yes, plural), and self-interest, single issue bureaucracies.
I’m researching Oregon law on small private schools to see if groups of ordinary people can set up small, affordable schools for their kids. I will report back when I have some cold hard facts to give to any FReepers who seek it.
I ran a private home school for 10 years. I homeschooled other people’s kids.]
Good for you, blu. I’m intrigued that you homeschooled other people’s kids.
I didn’t know that was permitted. Perhaps it’s a state thing.
If you wouldn’t mind I’d like to know what state you’re in.
No, I don’t work for the NSA or NEA, or anyone else of that ilk. If you could homeschool other people’s kids I’ll certainly think about doing the same.
Good post, blu.
Thanks, SW. I taught in Michigan. We used the religious school exemption. I used a basic Christian curriculum, but did not adhere strictly to it. As for the kids’ faith, I just asked them and their parents if they believed inGod. That was my only entrance requirement.
I taught mostly the square pegs, who are brilliant. Easily my favorite job.
I know the media started tho with Columbine so most of you do not know BUT I live 1 klick from Columbine, can see it from upper floor, drive past it many days and IT IS NOT IN LITTLETON. Littleton is right down the road to the east and we have a Littleton mailing address but we are in Jefferson County. Littleton is the county seat of ARAPAHOE County.
