NYC Public School Mandates Arabic Language Studies for All 2nd Through 5th Graders

In That Day,
Actually, PJMedia just did a great story featuring my website on this very issue!

I would also like to comment on the “choice” theme that Liberals seem to be grasping onto with this story. Let’s be clear. This is a NYC public school in Harlem. It employs NYC union teachers and follows NYC regulations. In terms of NYC school regulations, a “choice” school means that it is open to low achieving, underprivileged students who don’t want to attend their zoned school. It is unclear whether or not this school is a zoned school for Harlem children who live in the vicinity of Amsterdam Avenue.

Re: #’s 3 & 4 – If you wish to reply to the person who replied to a post, just hit reply to the original post and it will appear indented. You might want to include the name of the person who replied in your post to make clear to whom you are replying, but really, I don’t think that is terribly difficult to figure out, nor does it make discussion “difficult”.

No, most IB schools in the U.S. are NOT magnet schools. The IB Organization has made a concerted effort to target low-income, low achieving (also known as Title I) schools in the U.S. in order to make a grab fro a huge chunk of the 2009 ARRA money under the Obama administration. In fact, there was over $10 Billion included in ARRA for the implementation of “innovative programs” in Title I schools. Combined with RTTT (Race to The Top), public school administrators across the U.S. are claiming “free money” to implement the outrageously expensive, unvetted, unproven, IB programmes.
What happens when that “free money” (which of course we all know isn’t free, it is ALL of our taxdollars) runs out? Who gets stuck with the hefty IB bill? The local taxpayers, that’s who! In these dire economic times, there is absolutely no excuse for wasting money on this globalist, scam of a program. At the elementary level, there is no OPT OUT. That’s tyranny, not innovation.

Wow, what a brilliant comment, Joe. And when those 5th Graders move up to a 6th Grade school that doesn’t teach Arabic, exactly how many of them do you think are going to take private lessons to continue? Or do you think 5th Graders are going to get a job in Dubai?

The “news”, which The Blaze has for some unknown reason refused to focus on, is the International Baccalaureate organization and its grab for U.S. taxdollars in order to indoctrinate American children in globalist ideology and undermine our national sovereignty. IB costs approx. $200,000 per year, per school. IB requires that any arbitration be handled in the courts of Geneva, Switzerland, under Swiss Law. IB is not only anti-American, it is anti any country that seeks to instill national pride and defense of its borders and Constitution. IB’s ideology (philosophy) supports the UDHR, not our U.S. Constitution. This program must be relegated to private educational institutions and removed from our public schools.

Well, I’m glad to see The Blaze picked up this story after it disgracefully ran that lame op-ed by Cherlyn LeBon in favor of IB last week!
International Baccalaureate. IB. The IB Organization is an NGO of UNESCO. IBO has partnered with the Aga Khan’s Development Network (yes, THAT Aga Khan). IB is a scam and a sham. It is an outrageously expensive “programme” which is nothing more than a “framework” of beliefs and values, especially at the PYP (elementary) level where IBO mandates schoolwide implementation. IB should be thrown out of every single American public school it has infected.

Plagiarizing Newspaper Editor Writes Check for ‘Bull S***’ After Video Confrontation With Persistent Local Blogger

Congrats Duane and in fairness, the old editor knew he “done wrong” and wrote out the check despite his curmudgeonly attitude. Plagiarism is never pretty.
