You deffinitely show a propensity for NOT seeing what is posted, but that which you desire to see. The ONLY " propaganda " / agenda , that I would dearly love to see put in place, in ALL schools, is a return to teaching patriotism, love of America, and the unvarnished history of this nation. A pro-America agenda, is what schools used to teach, and something which has been banned , for decades. I suppose that that isn't to your liking; but, it IS to mine.

I'm so sorry that you feel compelled to try to discuss a topic, that you neither know anything about, or understand. For some strange reason, you also can't / won't read what I type, unfiltered , by your preconceptions of what you " THINK " I am advocating . THIS IS YOUR PROBLEM ; NOT MINE!

There ARE many problems, with public, as well as within some private, parochial, and home schooling education. No system is perfect; however , there are tried and true methods, which should be gone back to. They could be; even with damned the Unions. The will , is missing, and people, like YOU, are part of the problem; NOT part of the solution.

Nope, I haven't contradicted myself, on this thread. I have a one track mind ( position ) on formal education, which hasn't changed in 40 years. I'm NOT about to change any of it now. : - ) I know, FIRST HAND, that what I say, works. You can NOT say the same, since you haven't taught. : - )

I know, FIRST HAND, the way the teacher unions work ( oxymoron... they don't work ) , what preceeded them, and the education methods , that have been employed, for millenia / from the first written words about it .

I believe the educators should be able to run the schools without a lot of government bureaucrats whose salary depends on how much paperwork they generate. You seem to think the government should run the schools, and the educators should run the government.
