[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]If we don't want to have a national curriculum, with readings chosen for everyone, and the same topics assigned at each grade level, there are going to be questionable activities and assignments. This is what "local control over curriculum" means.[/quote] You will note that the locals complained and have put a stop to it. Lots harder if it were a national curriculum. That's why all of this needs to be kept at the local level. [/quote] Yes, it certainly would be harder to remove a Holocaust-denial assignment from the national curriculum, if there were a national curriculum with a Holocaust-denial assignment in it, which not only there isn't, [b]but there never would be.[/b] The PP is right -- this is actually an argument FOR a national curriculum, not against one. [/quote] When John Kerry calls Israel an Apartheid state, I wouldn't discount it.[/quote]
