WARNING TO PARENTS

IF you think it’s bad now, LOOK OUT. We’ve received word that the NH Board of Ed (appointed Board of political cronies… NOT elected by the people) either adopted the Next Generation Science Standards (in secret) or are on their way to formalizing the national SCIENCE STANDARDS in New Hampshire.

If you think the Math and English Common Core standards were bad, the Science standards are WORSE.

IF you want a quality education for your children, you have GOT to speak up.

Here are some articles to read on The Next Generation Science Standards:

TAKE ACTION

Write the New Hampshire Board of Education and tell them NO on Next Generation Standards!
We do NOT want another set of Common Core Science Standards.
WE expect New Hampshire to use the BEST academic standards.

Tell them they NEED to have PUBLIC HEARINGS and to STOP denying the public to weigh in on these standards.

We do NOT want POLITICALLY MOTIVATED SCIENCE STANDARDS in New Hampshire
