http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcont...D90RHOOG0.html This article makes me pissed lol. Up next is science, God help us, McLeroy is a creationist so we'll see how that plays out. Basically Don McLeroy made the decision that he knew better than a group of experts and teachers who had been working on the curriculum for nearly three years, and with the help of an unrelated group of people he threw together a curriculum in one night, presented the material to the committee an hour before they were to meet, and then tried to deny everyone at the meeting the right to review the information.

lol I remind you, science is next on their chopping block, and McLeroy is a vocal and adamant anti-intellectual. He admits on his own page he is not a professional educator… but he is the head of the State Board of Education. I know your joking but still...

my sister just finished teaching her first year in the dallas/ft worth area. this concerns her. I wonder how she feels about it she prefers a more hands on and teacher to student teaching method, rather than strict rules and policies
