According to this article in the Laconia Daily Sun, the Alton School Board has rejected the Common Core Standards.
We congratulate them for absolutely doing the right thing. Here’s why.
This is the kind of thing that is being pushed via “Common Core”.

It’s all about UN goals, global government, reinterpreting (and therefore subverting) the Constitution, praising Muslim ‘heroes’, and spreading social justice, using presenters from groups such a the FEDERAL RESERVE.
Yes you read that right, the much-maligned private bank known as the FED is now giving teachers the tools to poison your childrens’ minds with this communist nonsense. We’ve seen other lessons where the CFR also came in to teach foreign policy via the IB program, but nothing as blatant as this.
You will need to take a chill pill before you read the scathing article that is linked within the article from the website of the Parents of Merrimack Valley, who are now suffering under “IB” indoctrination.
It’s all about using your children to create socialist ‘activists’ — turning them into political mules for the global government, as it were. It is SHAMEFUL that anyone would allow this to go on in our public schools. And you thought you could trust your administrators and teachers?
The article highlights a mere few of the course descriptions as examples of what tripe is being forced on our children all over the country, as we said, even without the “IB” (UN) program.
When you read the rest, your blood should boil.
It’s time to vote out every single school board member that allows this stuff in our schools.
Your silence means complicity.
Thank you Alton.

Update: More Common Core-aligned nonsense.
Question #1: “I would support a government increase of my taxes if the money were used to pay for expanded health and social programs.”
Question #2: “I think the government should impose stricter limits on access to guns.”
Question #3: “I believe organized prayer should be kept out of schools. Having students pray is a violation of the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.”
Question #4: “I would support drilling for oil in a wildlife refuge to help reduce America’s dependence on foreign oil.”
Question #5: “I believe that looking out for U.S. interests abroad must come first, even if that means the U.S. takes action without the approval of the United Nations or our allies.”
Question #6: “I believe if you have nothing to hide, theres no reason to worry about government surveillance. It would not bother me if my government listened in on my personal phone calls as long as the surveillance was helping to catch terrorists.”
Question #7: “I believe the government should relax regulations on immigration and find a way for law-abiding illegal immigrants to stay in the U.S. legally and pay taxes.”
If I had been a 14 year old student that was given this survey, how would I have answered? I would have said, none of this is your damned business. These are my political views and I don’t have to pass a political litmus test just to get an education. So take your survey and stuff it where the sun don’t shine!
