Educator Dr. Duke Pesta has been working tirelessly to expose Common Core for what it really is ever since it was launched 7 years ago. In his presentation, Duke reveals how the Government is already pushing for “public boarding schools” to be open from 8am to 8pm, 365 days per year! He quotes 2 men who were at the forefront of American education, Horace Mann and John Dewey. The latter was an open communist:
“We are who engaged in the sacred cause of education are entitled to look upon all parents as having given hostages to our cause.” – Horace Mann
“The children who know how to think for themselves spoil the harmony of the collective society …” – John Dewey
Is Common Core helping the school to replace the family as a surrogate parent? Is Common Core promoting the idea of collectivism, that the individual is subservient to the group, institution, system and State? It would appear so, but that’s not all it’s doing.

Common Core was designed by the elite to benefit the elite. It is a combination of mind control, brain washing and data mining aimed at creating the perfect sheep for the New World Order.
Thank you for your post and notes.

Such a shame that we are taxed so heavily to provide a non-education to our kids and that if you actually want them to learn, you have to either homeschool or pay even more money on top of what you are taxed for a private school.
But if you put your kids in the public school with Common Core on the case, it's extremely hard to get them properly turned out.

No it is not. It is a system in which exams and certain curriculum is standardized and identical across the board. That way it would be easier for graduates to move-on to college knowing what to expect.
I'm not a fan of the program, but the best thing about it is that it is not mandatory. States can choose to adopt the program or not.
Hard to push the NWO when people are given a choice.

Do you have a kid in Common Core?
I have become a fan after involvement.
Its hard. Its academic.
School is school again - - - parents have to help. And parents have to provide all the extra activities that are not academic focused.

"Its hard" should be "It's". You're not that academic.

Sounds like you give it an unqualified rosy rating.
Incredible.
John Dewey would be thrilled at your support for his creeping tyrannical plans.
Thankfully, my students did not leave my classes without learning some critical thinking skills--regardless of their attraction thereto--they learned by osmosis, if nothing else.
But, hey, if you wish to help raise your offspring to be compliant sheep for the slaughter--you do----for a while longer----have some rights as a parent.
