HIDDEN AGENDA: NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND (924 hits)


HIDDEN AGENDA: NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND

NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND has a hidden clause

The "Certificate of Completion or Attendance" is being offered
in lieu of high school diplomas. This is how it works:

For students who are unable to pass both the Language Arts and
Math portions of the 10th grade ISTEP. Students must take the same
10th grade test over in the 11th and 12th grades until they pass both
portions. If they are unable to pass the 10th grade test by the 12th grade
then they have two options:

1. Drop out and go to a GED program or,
2. Accept a "Certificate of Completion" - which is NOT a diploma.

Once a student accepts it, they can never, ever get a diploma or a GED. A certificate of completion means that a student can never (as long as they live:

1. Go to the armed services
2. Go to college
3. Go to trade school
4. Go to journeyman's school
5. Go to beauty school
6. Go to culinary arts school
7. Get a federal loan in their lifetime

This is the portion of NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND (2001) that Bush slipped in during the 2004 revision of the NCLB bill. It has not been publicized. At a high school in Indiana, in 2005, there were 87 seniors in the graduation class. Five got diplomas and 82 got "Certificates of Completion".

This is being referred to as the "Paper Plantation". It is better for students to drop out and get into a GED program so they may seek other forms of education, later in life, if they desire to do so. All 50 states have "Certificates of Completion or Attendance".

Please pass this information along to EVERYONE you know who has
school age children. Clergy, please preach it from the pulpits. Our
people MUST know this information.
