Presentation: International Baccalaureate

by TJ Fantechi:
I'm a mom who's really concerned about the direction of current public education is headed. I first heard about International Baccalaureate in Minnesota from a conservative radio station that was featuring either the creator or a contributor to Edwatch.org. At the time, some of the school teachers were really pushing an ADD agenda and trying to get me to have my youngest hopped up on ritalin, but after some research I began to realize that there was something going on with the education system, not the kids, so any time the topic of education was brought up in a conservative setting, I started paying attention. What I found was that a lot of parents were feeling the same way I was about the education system. And for me it wasn't just the more socialist bent of education, but the fact that MY tax dollars were being used to fund this travesty. As soon as I got a grasp on what IB was about, the UN backing, the globalist thought, anti Christian and anti US rhetoric, I decided I didn't want my children to be a part of it.
