                        WHO SETS THE CURRICULUM FOR THE CALIFORNIA
                                               PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM

   The California State Assembly. California is one of the few states in America that allow    elected officials to determine what children will learn in school. Without clear guidelines,    some school employees follow an agenda that the legislature does not question or    challenge.

    This would not be problematic if people without an agenda got elected. When standards are    lowered (no one fails; it would hurt feelings), classes like coed sex education, learning the    Koran, evolution, and alternative" lifestyles" have equal or greater importance than    science, math, and (a re-invented) history (*see below).

   Under the guise of "social studies", California 7th graders are required to learn the Koran,    take a Muslim name and practice "jihad", or holy war against infidels - that is anyone who is    not a Muslim. In addition, your child must learn about the contributions made by Muslims to    civilization. However, your child will not learn about any contributions made to civilization by    Christians. To read the definition of the curriculum, one would never suspect that a religion    is being taught   in California public schools(Go to 7.2 in this   link.) This has been going on    for  years.

     One Board Member of UCWPAC relates how his foster children were being taught that the    *United States started WWII. These same children were also required to create a    presentation showing how the fall of the United States compares to the fall of the Roman    Empire. (7.1 in the above link.) Their foster dad removed them from school on the days they    were to 'practice jihad'. He had to threaten to sue the school so these children would not    have their grades penalized. Teachers encouraged students to taunt and ostracize these    children for the rest of the school year as punishment.

   Children should not be held hostage by an agenda in their public schools. The only way we    can change the public school curriculum is by electing people to office who will change    these laws. This is the goal of UCWPAC.
    Unite with us and let's free our children from these family - hostile agendas.

        WHY IS THE NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND ACT SO IMPORTANT TO YOUR FAMILY?
    The No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB), signed into law by President George W. Bush,    has one major flaw, according to the teachers union, National Educators Association (NEA):    It was signed by President George W. Bush.

   This law requires standardized testing for subjects and grades. If test scores prove that little    teaching and learning has taken place, and if the schools (read: the teachers) have    performed so poorly that there is little or no chance that a child can learn anything at a    particular school, the parents are allowed  to put their child in another school that can
    actually teach. The legal process  by which they can do this is called "vouchers". The NEA    has legally blocked the use of   vouchers in most states. The NEA believes control of    education should be in the hands of local teachers' unions.

   But the NCLB assures that children in every corner of America, from Eskimo children to    Indian reservation children get the exact same education as every other child in the    country. This powerful union loses a lot of power when their control of funds is limited. The    NEA calls vouchers "punitive". They believe it is "punitive' to remove children from a school    where hours of children's lives are wasted every day learning nothing, as proven by their    test scores.

     From NEA's own pages is this statement: " But NCLB links its federal dollars to draconian    penalties for schools that can not meet a series of one-size-fits-all standards."  When these    "draconian penalties" are applied and standards are reached, children can actually read    their diplomas when they graduate from high school. Parents call the legal right to
   place their child in a better-performing school 'freedom of education'.

    We believe the main reason why the NEA hates this law so much is because it guarantees    every student religious freedom while in a public school, at any time of the school year.    Christmas parties in public schools are legal and "Merry Christmas" is protected free    speech. Boy Scouts must be given a place for meetings, and religous groups have the    same freedoms enjoyed by ansy secular groups. Visit the link for the Secretary of Education    Rod Brown's Guidance on Constitutionally Protected Prayer in School. In this guidance,    Section 9524, Prayer in School, the csonditions of religious freedoms are spelled out clearly.

   If school districts do not comply with NCLB, parents may file a complaint. The district's    federal funding may be withheld until the school complies with this law. The NEA does not    provide for such accountability to parents.
