Education

So, what could we do to improve education? Here are some ideas.

Freedom enables opportunities. School choice creates more freedom for parents and students.

Department of Education’s “improvements” to its student loan program will encourage colleges to increase tuition, creates a strong incentive to borrow as much as possible for college, and reduce the level of effort that students put into their college work.

So, what is the 1517 Fund? It is Gibson’s way of finding young people who have ideas and want to put them into effect without the long, expensive detour through college. 

It is time to enable parents to have the freedom to choose the school for their children through school choice.

The purpose is to turn children “queer” through an educational process.

Two neighboring states, Florida and Georgia, show how and how not to deal with the “termite” problem of Leftist education control.

While school choice isn’t the ideal, it isn’t a compromise to supports such policies.

Why is there this constant attempt to deny the past?

The reality is that a college degree is either valuable or it isn’t. If it’s valuable, it will pay for itself. If it’s not valuable, no one should pay for it. Either way, there’s no reason for the government to be involved.

The role of a parent is to protect his child from harm, teach him how to think and make good choices, identify reality, help him understand long-range consequences, and help him to understand that his feelings are not superior to reason.

Sex in the schools—by which I mean the sexualization of children on issues related to sexual orientation and gender identity—is America’s twenty-first-century kulturkampf.

Higher education in the US is bloated and dysfunctional because federal meddling turned it into a mass entitlement. Turn off the federal spigot and it will rapidly improve.

The problem is, “forgiving” debt doesn’t make it go away, it just shifts the burden. These “loans” effectively become grants, and the taxpayers are left footing the bill. This is a classic example of concentrated benefits and dispersed costs.

“By eliminating the Department of Education…we cannot only reduce the budget but ensure that local needs and preferences, rather than the wishes of Washington, determine the education of our children.” – Ronald Reagan

The act of interacting with a child with the objective of sexual abuse is called grooming.

Critical Race Theory is a Marxist collectivist view of race and justice. It is called “Marxist” because it shares the same basic philosophical views as Marxism except that class is replaced with race.

Some Montessori organizations are replacing Montessori critical thinking skills with indoctrination into Marxist ‘social justice’ propaganda. A Montessori teacher fights back.

Federal college subsidies have increased the cost of higher education, lowered its standards, created a labor market glut of graduates expecting “good” jobs because they’ve been to college, and led to a horde of people who can barely repay their college debt.

As early as 1899, students of Paul Laurence Dunbar High School, a black public school in Washington, D.C., scored higher on citywide tests than any of the city’s white schools. From its founding in 1870 to 1955, most of its graduates went off to college.

Tenure is at best a mixed bag – sometimes it protects the already-employed, but at other times it means that candidates with unpopular views are never offered employment or promotion in the first place.

When governments abrogate parents’ right to choose, they instigate conflict between parents and teachers.

Parents are increasingly demanding freedom of choice in education.

Instead of workshops on social justice topics, Montessori organizations should feature seminars on the value and role of the individual in eliminating racism, and should glorify and celebrate the fact that the Montessori Method is based on individualism.

If you want to lead a successful life, our most urgent advice to you is to reject your professors’ assaults on reason and individualism.

“Forgive student loans” really means workers must pay for privileged students who don’t.

Imbue your child not with the dangers of the world, but with the factful progress of the world.

Critics claim the tests are culturally biased and say that’s why Blacks and Latinos don’t score as well. But that doesn’t explain why Asians do so well. In fact, Asians get the best SAT scores.

Without a separation of school and state, the madness will continue.

Government Education Increased Bureaucracy and Reduced Liberty

All evidence points to government-subsidization as the real culprit behind rising tuition costs.
