Barely enough time has passed for bologna sandwiches to begin rotting in school lockers, yet the 2011-2012 school year is shaping up to be one of the stinkiest ever, if we’re measuring in episodes of putrid political correctness and radicalism.
From “radical math” (yes, you can teach math for social justice), to revisionist history (Howard Zinn’s “A People’s History of the United States” remains a listed resource for A.P. American History students), from eco-radicalism that passes for hard science to government classes that barely mention the word “republic” when describing that thing our Founders created, we seem to have lost sight of the real purpose of America’s public schools.
