Education – Impacting Generations

2015 Mt of Education copyShould we vigorously teach America’s foundations and moral values to this generation and future generations?

 

Yes!  We Agree America!

 

The greatest threat to America is that we have not passed on the fundamentals of our foundation, our constitution, American patriotism, and especially our Judeo-Christian values to this generation. Examine how this has opened the door to capture the minds of a generation, and how it threatens our very existence.

  1. Why is it important for American citizens to learn and understand the fundamentals of our historical foundations, principles, and the Judeo-Christian truths that guided our founding and our Constitution?

 

America, unlike other nations, was founded on ideas, principles and values such as God-given liberty, freedom, individual rights, personal responsibility, and unity. A nation built on ideas and principles cannot maintain its national identity nor survive if those principles are not taught, learned and reinforced.

  1. Why is it crucial for each of us to study and ponder the heritage of liberty?

 

According to Thomas Jefferson, it is critical for Americans to ponder liberty, to study it, understand it, and know what it takes to preserve it. Liberty is a most precious yet fragile gift, and can easily be lost.

  1. Is school-based civic education fulfilling its obligation to provide young Americans with adequate political, foundational and civic knowledge? Are they teaching our Founders principles of morality, virtue, religion, personal responsibility, individual liberty, free markets, and limited government? If not, what can we do about it?

 

No, in fact most history and social studies textbooks used in elementary and secondary schools are a disgrace. In the name of political correctness and multiculturalism, their authors deliberately provide an inaccurate, dishonest account of American history.

American citizens must demand that schools and their civic educators renew their civic commitment to teach the truth about America’s history and foundations, and instruct students in basic American values and patriotism.

  1.  Are Americans being deliberately stripped of their moral, religious, historical and Constitutional heritage? If so, why? Is American history being re-written falsely in student textbooks? By whom?

The Founder’s great experiment is at risk of dissolution by liberal progressive ideologues intent upon shaping a citizenry ignorant of its real history, and indoctrinating them to hate its country and Founders. Liberal progressives are responsible for rewriting American history. The mission is to indoctrinate an ignorant electorate in Marxist ideology and lead them to surrender their liberty.

  1. Why do liberal progressives or socialists fear well-informed students?

Well-informed students become a well-informed electorate. Enemies of free government understand this. Americans who know the truth about our nation’s past are well-armed to ask some inconvenient questions of liberal politicians who are trying to take our country in the wrong direction.

 

  1. What are the dangers posed by an American citizenry that is increasingly ignorant of and apathetic toward our nation’s foundations, values, principles, Constitution, politics, and the heritage of our liberty?

 

We will lose our national identity, which makes it much easier to lead the nation in the wrong direction. We will be uninterested and unable to fully participate in our democracy. Ignorance and apathy with respect to our history, our heritage, and our democracy will surely result in the loss of our freedom, our liberty, and our nation if it is not reversed.

If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.” Thomas Jefferson

 

  1. Why is loss of community one of the most dangerous consequences of losing our national identity?

 

A community is a gathering of people around shared values, common ideals, ambitions and commitment to one another. A society that has lost its identity has no point of reference beyond itself. It quickly loses a commitment to community and views its way of life as a mere contractual arrangement which is not worth fighting for. Constitutions work only as they reflect an actual sense of community.

B.THE THREAT OF COMMON CORE EDUCATION

 

                     Which classroom is BEST?

 

  Kids in school unhappy kids in school                           

  1. Is our present education system failing our children?​

​ 

​Our children and our nation are at risk due to the failure of the education system.  Common Core, lack of moral principles and redefining America’s founding being taught in schools today will be the undoing of American exceptionalism.

 

2.  What is Common Core and should it be eradicated?  

Common Core has been implemented in 42 states across the country and the uproar just keeps getting louder and louder.  Where did these standards come from and how did we get here?

 

3. Can every child learn?

 

From 1958’s National Defense Education Act (NDEA) to 2015’s Every Student Succeeds Act, the Federal government has increased intervention in an attempt to improve student achievement, yet more than a third of our children cannot read or do math!  The statistics are even worse for poor, minority students.  Are our children incapable of learning or has the system failed them?

 

4. Is Big Education Data stealing our children’s privacy? 

Data about our children is being collected from birth through entry into the workforce.  Why is this happening, why is it a problem and how can we stop it?

 

5. Is Big money a danger to real education?  

An aggregate look at spending from Federal to local, shows skyrocketing investment in education.  Where is all this money going?  Is it really helping children?

  1. DANGERS OF THE COMMON CORE CURRICULUM

 

  1. This hour long presentation explores the government mandated Common Core standards being implemented in public schools, private schools and homeschool curriculum. Dr. Pesta and Mrs. Black offer an in-depth look at Common Core, its long-term impact, and why American’s should be concerned about these standards.

  1. On March 27, 2015 Dr. Duke Pesta spoke on the dangers of Common Core. No doubt one of the most outspoken critic of the Common Core States Standards, Dr. Pesta exposes the origins and dangers of the Common Core scheme. Through his and other’s efforts, people are beginning to fight back on behalf of their children. From this video, you will learn why our local school districts are so secretive, all about the government’s overreach, its concealment and outright lies that drive Common Core.
