School incubators for socialism

| March 3, 2011 7:41 AM

The public government schools are inefficient and a bureaucratic mess. This district has had virtually the same enrollment for over 50 years yes employs about twice the number of people in the district.

The costs have increased over 1500 percent. About 80 percent of the current budget goes to the "citified staff" with an average of over 40,000 per year per teacher for 167 day contract with holidays and retirement and insurance benefits. The money is not for the kids its to keep the sacred cow, the public schools bloated.

The most important reason to vote against not only the levy, but the government schools is what they promote and teach in the schools, that being humanism and socialism.

The agenda of the National Education Association is the promotion of these left wing agendas which include the green agenda. They deny our Creator and promote man and the state as the new god. The public schools have digressed to nothing more than incubators for socialism.  If you care about our country and freedom then stop funding the government schools and get your children out of them.
