Conform

Glenn Beck, the New York Times bestselling author of The Great Reset , considers the hot-button issue of education in the US, exposing the weaknesses of the Common Core school curriculum and examining why liberal solutions fail.Public education is never mentioned in the constitution. Why? Because our founders knew that it was an issue for state and local governmentsnot the federal one. Its not a coincidence that the more the federal government has inserted itself into public education over the years, the worse our kids have fared. Washington dangles millions of dollars in front of states and then tells them what they have to do to get it. Its backdoor nationalization of educationand its leading us to ruin. In Conform, Glenn Beck presents a well-reasoned, fact-based analysis that proves its not more money our schools needits a complete refocusing of their priorities and a total restructuring of their relationship with the federal government. In the process, he dismantles many of the common myths and talking points that are often heard by those who want to protect the status quo. Critics of the current system are just teacher bashersTeachers unions put kids first...Homeschooled kids suffer both academically and sociallylocal control is an excuse to protect mediocrityCommon Core is rigorous and state ledCritics of Common Core are just conspiracy theoristsElementary school teachers need tenure...We cant reform schools until we eradicate povertyschool choice takes money away from public schoolsCharter schools perform poorly relative to public schools. There is no issue more important to Americas future than education. The fact that weve yielded control over it to powerful unions and ideologically driven elitists is inexcusable. We are failing ourselves, our children, and our country. Conform gives parents the facts they need to take back the debate and help usher in a new era of education built around the commonsense principles of choice, freedom, and accountability.
