You are so right. That's why we have such an opportunity to make a difference here.

You are so right. That's why we have such an opportunity to make a difference here.

The rest of the country is counting on you to keep education in the education books! My knowledge of how the industry works comes from my son-in-law and daughter who are/were both in the text book publishing industry. Parents in Texas have an advantage because you have regular citizens on the state book selection committee. CA is dominated by the NEA and makes its book selections in alternate years. I think the cycle is about 4 years.

I know that NO BOOK IS PUBLISHED unless either TX or CA adopts it. The publishers just can't afford to produce a book that will not have the guaranteed sales of TX or CA behind it.

We need the TX committee to step forward and call a halt to this nonsense. CA may follow when it's their turn, or the authors will change their emphasis because of the Texas example. Otherwise, the whole country will have this Marxist indoctrination rammed down our throats.
