I think this election is revealing a lot- even the educational elites are shocked by Bernie Sanders – If America were to elect a true socialist it would reveal the work that they have done.

Comrade Banos

How do you do square roots and five place long devision with Common Core?

Hardly….

The problem with that is, there NO good schools in America any more. They are all run by liberal, socialist and New World Order bureaucrats. Now you hear from the left that it takes a village to raise a child or children belong to all of us. People better had better investigate Common Core a little deeper. There is a wonderful you tube video every parent should watch. The Case Against Common Core , by Dr. Duke Pesta . You will never feel the same about school again after watching it.

Face it illegal immigration is good for teachers unions. They would lose somewhere in the neighborhood of 33% of their jobs. That’s big money. And Losbanos you hit the nail on the head. This whole “group” think is strong in common core. They started CC when my son was in the 8th grade and they have multiple projects where they have to work with other students. My kid is the smart one and there is always a slacker. Guess what slackers grade goes up and my kids goes down! Just like technocrats imagined when dreaming this up. If I could afford it my kids would be in private school asap. And I live in what is considered to be one of the best school districts in SoCal.

After reading all comments on this subject not one of you spoke about the real problem here. The problem is that these schools are just that, they are not education centers, they are government run training centers with one goal and it is not to educate but to social engineer them . Kids are stripped of their religious beliefs , family values, morals , individualism. They are taught sex education in kindergarten , anal sex, homosexuality, and if you do not believe me. LOOK IT UP. The history they are taught are lies, they are told that the government knows better than the parents, not taught their rights under the constitution, bill of rights. They are taught they can not think for their selves , their group must make the decision and when it is time for them to leave these training centers, they are lost. Face it, it has nothing to do with money at all. It has to do with shutting these government run training called school to prison centers down. Take back your power people, take back your children . The states and the federal government has no business in our children’s education , get rid of the unions , common core is a joke and was developed and installed by Bill Gates, socialist. LOOK IT UP. If you continue to leave it the way it is now, you are contributing to your child’s failure in life .

We have a corrupt political system in CA that uses our public education system to get increased tax revenue and then never gives it to the kids- if you want proof I have documented everything for one of the “wealthiest” school districts in the US. Our Wealthy , “entitled” kids are performing equal to ELL in math and english. We have closed the gap by making everyone equally stupid.

Funding eh? Riiight.

Got here on January 5th, 1976. First day of school was January 7th.

Came from Ohio. Got A’s for the entire year because the schools in Ohio were so much better.

Explain funding to me again?

These schools have always been terrible. End of topic already.

Lighten up….the Asians got us covered. They achieve while the other kids play football, video games or do dope.

Don’t you value equal opportunity and free will? Poor choices are part of life too.

Doomers created this crummy service economy…..relax…..millions of unskilled workers are needed to keep the economy going.

Time to change the direction of the State- California educates 1 in 8 students in the US- when CA fails- the nation fails- so we all need to make a change for our kids-
