On March 13, 2010, President Barack Obama announced his education blueprint for overhauling the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA/NCLB). This is what CTA members had to say to the president and to U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan about the major change to the education law.
If schools returned to teaching the Three R's, and spent less time on social engineering, maybe the kids could actually learn something. Public schools are too costly, especially now that the tax base is gone. Maybe kids should be home schooled via the internet? Time to step into the 21st Century.

The No Child Left Behind is nothing but smoke and mirrors. I've seen many kids left behind and kicked to the curb that wanted to learn but had difficulties. These yahoos on the hill and in gov't (for the most part) don't care about our kids. They're following their agenda beautifully, aren't they? (sarcasm)
Great job on the vids... keep the message going and hopefully, someone will hear it and will grow a heart so they can do the right thing for our children.

I have to ad something else. They want to take money away from our kids (seems to be their first choice), but when they pushed their poisonous H1N1 vaccines down everyone's throat and offered all these FREE vaccines to the kids and their family members, it came from our own budget (all the FREE vaccines at schools & clinics came from our CA budget). Ironic they used school sites to PROMOTE this crap and yet they are taking away from the very heart of our kids (their education).
