TEXAS EDUCATION IS A FAILURE

Share Button

The Texas House Public Education Committee met this past Monday, August 12, 2024 for 9 hours. 7 of those hours the committee spent hosting and questioning invited out of town speakers. Those that support the Committee’s political agenda. At 4pm the Texas taxpayers, moms, dads, grandparents were given a mere 2 minutes to give their testimonies. It was more than evident that “We the People” who vote these politicians into office were just mere serfs in their eyes.

Whole most of the committee members stayed on point and in their seats listening and asking questions of invited quests felt the need to escape their seats with no questions once “We the People” took to testifying.

This is the link to the full House Education Committee Hearing. Public testimony started at 7 hours into the hearing. Watch the lack of respect offered those prior and after to the 7 hour mark. Texas Education Commissioner, Mike Morath was the first to speak on the panel. In his speech he testifies that over 50% o Texas Students are failing the STAAR test. Get that 50%? Why is he still the commissioner?

Below are testimonies from many of us who spoke before the Texas Public Education Committee regarding our failing Education System and their alignment with Globalist organization UNESCO through programs like the International Baccalaureate and HB 1605. HB 1605 is a technology vendor bill ushering in UNESCO’s Open Education Resources leading students further away from textbooks to online devices. All so called Texas Conservatives Representatives voted for HB 1605 with the exception of Senator Bob Hall.

Many of us have testified with before the Texas House and Senate Education committee’s for years telling them to get our children off of one to one devices (technology) and back to a classical education with a textbook, pen and paper. Sadly, our politicians are only interested in catering to lobbyists and vendors have thrown the next generation of students under the bus on their watch.

The Destruction of Texas Education! PARENTS WAKE UP!

shattered

Across the state of Texas there is a movement by Texas Superintendents and others to totally transform Texas Education. This transformation is not in the best interest for our children or our country. With millions of dollars from the Obama stimulus packages, Dell and Gates Foundation there are numerous liberal/progressive groups working unbeknownst to many in transforming the way students will be taught. A traditional education where “absolute truth” and American Exceptionalism is taught is quietly being eliminated in you local school with the implementation of Project Based Learning (PBL) with the use of technology & the elimination of text books.  Project Based Learning has established roots in the United Nations. Please read more about it here.

 

The following 35 Texas Superintendents (mostly x coaches who know nothing about education)  originally got together and came up with “Creating a New Vision for Texas Public Education“.

participating

 

TASA has created the group Future-Ready Superintendents Leadership Institute. The institute is working hand in hand with ENGAGE2LEARN, a consulting firm to further implement the progressive/liberal transformation. Clark and Shannon Buerk run Engage2Learn and Shannon’s goal is education TRANSFORMATION. Engage2Learn will be invited by your superintendent to come to the district to hold community meetings using the Delphi technique, which actually controls the group discussion  giving the impression the groups input is valid and needed. The superintendent and Engage2Learn already have their plan in place and this meeting is nothing more than a consensus meeting.

More on the Delphi Techique Here and how to diffuse it.

 

Before Shannon Burke started Engage2Learn she worked with Cambridge Strategic Services (another consulting firm) working to transform education as well. Those involved in most of these consulting firms originally worked with local school districts and the education service centers. They have found ways to break away and continue to make money off of the local school districts. Education is big business. There is so much financial corruption and no accountability at all levels

 

Texas Association of School Administrators (TASA) and Texas Association of School Boards (TASB) and just two of many associations that are funded with through local school districts with a progressive agenda. Why are taxpayers funding these two groups is beyond me. Superintendents do not work for the district any longer the are indebted to the TASA and TASB agenda.

 

Parents and Taxpayers are the only thing that is going to make a difference. Please spread the word and inform others of what is happening with Texas Education.

Why There is no Money for Texas Teachers!

Share Button

 

 

You constantly hear that there isn’t enough funding for education. That is a BIG LIE! There is no problem with funding there is a major problem with with how those funds are spent! Your have Texas ISD spending thousands on a yearly bases leasing the controversial curriculum CSCOPE. Combined Texas school superintendents spend millions funding the  progressive associations Texas Association of School Administrators (TASA) and Texas Association of School Board (TASB), two associations whose agenda is a education reform and implementing radical transformation in Texas Schools! These two groups also have offices a couple of blocks from the Texas Capital and lobby the Texas legislature for more progressive policies and money.  Yes they fund these two groups with TAXPAYER MONEY!!no money

 

We also have school districts hiring an outside company called “Lead Your School” (LYS) for a great cost. LYS comes in to the school and trains administrators and teachers how to change their teaching techniques along with  implementing “Power Walks” aka walkthroughs. These walkthroughs are nothing more than having observers coming into the teachers classroom frequently to assure they are on task of totally transforming the way they teach. Talk about disrupting a classroom!! Teachers HATE IT!!

powerwalks

Marlin Independent School District teamed up with “Lead Your School”  in 2011 at a cost of between $53,000 -71,000. How is Marlin doing after this so called wonderful professional development? Marlin ISD is the worst school in the state of Texas. Students are bused off to another local school and teachers have left the school in droves.

Waco ISD hired LYS for a cost of $1.6M  Invoices &Checks

LEAD YOUR SCHOOL $$$ waco

Mesquite ISD hired LYS for a cost of $780,000.

Tidehave ISD hired LYS for a cost of $34,400

Manor ISD hired LYS for a cost of over a Million

 There are many more district in Texas that has paid these astronomical fees and continue to do so. 

 

 

 

Lead Your School owned and operated by Sean Cain .

Lead Your School is the assumed name for “Blue Daisy Consulting” owned by his wife Lesa Cain.

Lead Your School’s official business address is 124365 FM 1960, #124. I drove to see this wonderful office where millions of taxpayer funds are being mailed and found Lead Your School’s official address to be a Postal Center.

A comment in a local paper regarding Lead Your School.

Lead Your School comment

Sean Cain is also the author of one of the stupidest propaganda ridden books I have ever read.  “Look At Me”

 

In the book Sean is the “Prince” that has such wonderful news for school districts only if the Ranking Officials (school board) welcomes the Prince.

Below is an excerpt from his book.

Once upon a time a moronic king decided that supporting the schools that educated the children of his subjects would be too much of a burden for himself and his rich friends. And so he closed the royal coffers and school funding slowed down to but a trickle.

Due to the king’s actions, many schools in his land were in despair. The humble teaches and earnest principal’s cried out to the townsfolk and villagers to take up their cause. But the ears of these people were as deaf to the needs of  schools  and school children as the head of the king was empty.

 

Most teachers and principals  resigned themselves to the fact that the promise of success and reward had withered and died. Many left their schools. Those who remained toiled in misery.

All I can say is, Unbelievable!
