I have to say that this young lady, who is giving her Valedictorian speech nailed it on the head when she says, “I can not say that I am any more intelligent then my peers… I can attest that I am ONLY the best at doing what I’m told.”
And to completely sound like a conspiracy theorist, if you actually go back and look at some of the speaches Woodrow Wilson along with some of the BIG business people of the time gave when they were originally setting up our public school system, it was their goal to create a society that would be more willing to take orders.
That’s as deep as I’ll get on you today.
If you’re interested in learning more about this intentional indoctrination go read “Weapons of Mass Instruction”, it’ll really make you rethink how you’re choosing to educate your child.
I was just discussing public schools over lunch. I think standardized testing is the worst thing that could have happened to public schools. I live in Michigan and teachers are getting so overwhelmed with having to ‘teach to the test’. The creativity is being removed from teaching, as is the ability to pursue the interests of the child. It is all about getting high test scores and therefore attracting student to your school district so you can get more money.
It is really sad…
