In the Land of Lincoln, a set of rigorous new rules has been proposed for K-12 public-school teachers that will give government total control of what students learn and how they learn it, effectively turning students into at-will activists for far-left, progressive issues.
The state-approved Culturally Responsive Teaching and Leading Standards (CRTL Standards) illustrate the latest attempt by the Left to transform American schooling to conform to the beliefs and values of their singular worldview. (Snip) The new regulations would be incorporated into all teacher trainings and certification requirements, and those who refuse to comply could face disciplinary action or termination.

While it is still permitted, home schooling is the only solution. Retirees, your grandchildren are calling.

When you hear New World Order, think United Nations.
In the end it's Orwells farm, and we don't need/want that IMO.
Land of Lincoln indeed.
This nation just has to rid ourselves of lefty fleas. Trump only got the dog half washed.

To me this looks like a lifeline for the parochial schools who have been losing enrollment for years. Parents with the means should start the application process now for these schools.

# 5, the parents are trying to pay their bills, keep their kids "safe", know nothing about this policy, and if they did would be easily confused by bureaucratic mumbo-jumbo and the weight of "expert" opinion tossed out by "educators".

Leftists are unabashed totalitarians. They’re not simply liberal.

When will this end?
One might consider that the Soviet Union lasted only 70 years.
But the same land (now called Russia) has over 200,000,000 Christians in the Church....and the government is rebuilding churches that the Soviets destroyed.

Keeping children out of Government Brainwashing Centers should be the most important goal of all adults who have any connection to raising children.

Smells a lot like Obamacare to me. Democrats ordered subjects to buy overpriced insurance or face increasingly harsh punishment administered by the IRS.
Now Dems are ordering subjects to comply with State approved thought and behavior mandates in order to keep their jobs. Failure to comply with such mandates deprives those subjects (previously known as US citizens) of employment opportunities because their thinking does not conform with that of abusive top down government bureaucrats and elected officials issuing those orders.
There's no mistaking the abusive nature of the current crop of Democrats in DC. Anyone who worked for the Trump administration or agrees with it, is to be shunned. Your own thoughts will not be tolerated. This is what Democrats did to Americans under Obama, and they're at it again.

That's not the half of it. Illinois also just passed a "reform" bill that requires that all police become "certified" in order to be hired and retained in any local law enforcement agency. So they won't even need to defund the police, they'll just make sure that only communists can be police officers.

I believe that this would apply to all who are certified to teach in IL, including those who work in private schools.

If you don’t like the way Illinois is going, move to another State, because Illinois is not about to back off their progressive stances.

the state knows they are dealing with a bunch of spineless, mostly communist influenced people who are the teachers in that state, who will roll over and start teaching marxist leninist ideology without missing a heart beat.

Any parent who now subjects their child/children to government indoctrination is a fool. It's time to get serious about breaking up the public schools.

They want you to believe that is the Land of Lincoln, but Lincoln was from Kentucky.

Why would the teachers complain now while they are sitting at home doing nothing and being paid full salary? Wait until you are called back to work and then quit. Are you afraid that nobody will notice?

The parents have been successfully handcuffed in the public skools. The school and the teachers' unions work hard to make sure that only skool-friendly idiots get elected to the skool board. Yes, cheating is rampant at that level as well. These boards also have taxing power, digest that for a while.
