This is what the new progressive government schools look like.
It is mass mediocrity. If you have creativity and innovative
teaching, you are expected to give it away "for the good of
all." It is socialism at its finest. Throw in the thought
police roaming the halls called PLC's and you have the real
picture. You're not supposed to achieve excellence. You, the
individual, don't have any rights, not even to your own talent.
I didn't vote for Obummer and his head smurf, Arne Duncan. But
now, we are all stuck with the stench of socialism. The old
form of competition that leads to greatness is dying.
