    Why do you think that is?

    Does she not see the threat she is doing to her own profession?

    Does she not think her indoctrination machine is valuable?

    I'm genuinely curious why she is so against it. The only logical explanation is the worthless teachers don't want to work

    Hubris probably playing a role, too. I guess it’s what her constituents are pushing for.

    Fantastic news. Sooner we get kids out of public schools the faster the country will be saved.

    I have continued to struggle with the tradeoff of reducing the indoctrination machines against increasing the long term psychological damage of constantly fear mongering children

    One more semester of remote learning or forcing kids to wear masks will be final death blow of the indoctrination machine.

    Please. Please do it.

    I understand the concerns about remote learning but for the life of me Indont understand how masks negatively affect the ability to educate children.

    I've had several teachers tell me they hate the masks because they can't tell by the kids' facial expressions when they're confused or not getting it. One of them is my daughter's teacher, and my daughter wears a mask voluntarily.

    Have you seen some pictures of what masks look like at the end of day for a school child? It will be a wide spectrum of outcomes but masks are dirty.

    Yep. My kid goes through 3 a day, 4 on days with PE, because they make her sweat. It's not very practical.

    This looks promising. I'll have to download it and check it out.

    https://www.realcleareducation.com/a...um_110614.html

    On July 19, Hillsdale College released the 1776 Curriculum, a package of American history and civics materials for students in kindergarten through 12th grade. The curriculum offers students and teachers a more traditional and patriotic approach to American history than the critical alternatives now prevalent in the nation’s primary and secondary schools.

    At nearly 2,500 pages, the 1776 Curriculum is a mammoth collection of teaching materials, offering grade-specific guidance for teachers, assignments and exams for students, and a trove of primary sources from the American founding and beyond. In a press release, Hillsdale’s assistant provost for K-12 education Dr. Katherine O’Toole contrasted what she described as Hillsdale’s “truly American” curriculum with its “partisan” competitors.
    ...

    “Unlike the 1619 Project and its politicized curricula, the Hillsdale 1776 Curriculum doesn’t use history as a weapon to fight current political battles. Instead, the Hillsdale 1776 Curriculum is a reflection of the honest study of history that has been going on at Hillsdale College and its dozens of affiliated K-12 schools for decades. It’s a content-rich curriculum covering American history, American government, and civics – the complete story of our nation that is honest, inspiring, and unifying,” she said.

    While an overtly patriotic American history curriculum might be accused of downplaying sordid facts of the nation’s history, the 1776 Curriculum references slavery nearly 2,000 times. It is forthright in acknowledging the institution as a “glaring” example of America’s failure to live up to “its founding ideas.” To O’Toole and Hillsdale, the question isn’t whether to teach about slavery, but how to teach about it in the context of America’s lofty founding principles.

    Lol, I’m more disappointed in Milton Friedman’s name being sullied, if I’m being honest.

    Love the irony of a union lamenting the so called racist origins of an idea, as if unions themselves weren’t used to shield whites from cheaper, non-white labor competition.

    Indeed. Maybe the racist history of some unions can make it into some of the new school curriculums. I'm for shining a bright light into all the uncomfortable places.

    Teachers union is continuing their racist roots by disproportionately failing black students.
