Florida School District Opts Out Of Common Core Making History

It starts with a spark, and just maybe this Lee County school district in Florida is the place it begins. After listening to many parents at a school board meeting on the effects of the Common Core Curriculum a vote was taken and by the slim margin of 3 to 2 the board rejects the  state wide testing program. John Dewey, the founding father of progressive American education, developed a means to create an egalitarian, socialist society, freed from the supposed “superstitions” of religion.

According to Floridatoday:

The Lee County school district voted Wednesday night to opt out of all statewide, standardized testing. The 3-2 vote left more questions than answers as the Southwest Florida school district becomes the first in Florida to say no to Common Core testing. The meeting adjourned without any discussion regarding whether any testing will replace the state tests. “Sometimes it takes an act of civil disobedience to move forward,” said school board member Don Armstrong. “We cannot allow the fear to hold us back.”

 Common Core is the fruit of a long line of progressive education reformers. This process of destruction of Western education did not begin in the last few years or even decades, but way back in the so-called Enlightenment. They were Naturalists. Naturalism is a type of secular religion that replaced the Christian God with man and so-called “reason.” They harshly attacked the I influence of tradition, family and Christianity in the formation of children. They were also radical Materialists. School subjects that did not have a direct benefit to material prosperity or that did not prepare a student to be a worker. Does communism come to mind? If people would only take the time to research what the government chips away at daily, you will have a better understanding of your lost freedoms. What do you think?
