Politics and Education Aristotle's view

"It is impossible to talk about education apart from a conception of the good life, people will inevitably differ in their conceptions of the good life, and hence they will inevitably differ on matters of education, therefore the discussion of education falls squarely within the domain of politics. " Boy is that the truth or what???

Common core standards + merging districts... An attack on Democracy?

Having a common core standard for ELA may not be the best thing for students. Why? Because who is to say what is important and what is not? There are way too many variables, in different parts of the state for this to work. More on this later. Smaller school districts that are strapped for cash are being urged to merge with larger ones. This is another attack on local control of education... Neoliberalism is still alive and attacking the foundations of American Democracy...public schools... More later.

Things that make you go Hummm

The more research I do the more I am convinced that public schools are designed to provide èloi for Power Elite. Is this what education is meant to do?

Safe schools

Been thinking about safe schools lately as I have seen an inordinate number of fights on campus since the school resource officer had to return to a beat because of budget concerns. This is not a good thing.

Um...ok...sad

Well the burger I ordered medium came rare. And cold. The French fries were also cold. The food matched the beer...cold. Service was good too bad the food wasn't. Yardhouse does this type of restaurant way better. A word about the decor. It looks like IKEA meets Big lots. Oh well.
