The teacher in the burqa lesson, according to a student, also said, “I do not necessarily agree with this, but I am supposed to teach you that we are not to call these people terrorists anymore, but freedom fighters.”

Ironically, CSCOPE requires that teachers refer to the Boston Tea Party patriots as "terrorists".

“Ironically, CSCOPE requires that teachers refer to the Boston Tea Party patriots as “terrorists”. “

Let’s not overdo it, cscope DOES NOT refer to the patriots from the Boston Tea Party as terrorists.

Well they did, but they deleted it, so it’s not there anymore, it was in an old version of their curriculum. The wonders of the Internet permitted an update.

Of course I have no clue whether it’s back in the curriculum...since its deletion can be undone just as quickly. In fact, it can be removed every afternoon when the bell rings and re-inserted every morning when the morning bell rings.

...and that is my point to you technology-crazed parents. Think about it. Once textbooks are gone, you have ZERO INSIGHT and ZERO CONTROL as to what’s going on in the schools. Why do you think they were in such a hurry to get wired up?
