Schools should judge IB on its benefits to students, not on the fears of outside interest groups

“Schools should judge IB on its benefits to students, not on the fears of outside interest groups” or so says this article on a Whole Child blog when defending schools who pay the UN to come in and teach the students to be ‘global citizens’ instead of favoring national sovereignty.

Did you know? You are a parent, or perhaps a parent AND a taxpayer. And you likely favor American sovereignty over the possibility of a centralized world government under the thumb of the UN…

But now you are considered an ‘outside interest group’ and the UN is considered the last word on what your children will learn and believe in the public schools that are funded by your hard-earned dollars.
