Of course it will start in North Carolina. Goodrum is from there. I heard Goodrum is on Obama's new council for Delusional People. Just more letters to put after his name

I heard they were just trying to pass this in NC....but you are correct, what a slap in the face to our countries founding fathers and history.....private school is the only way to go anymore.

North Carolina Schools May Cut Chunk Out of U.S. History Lessons
Wednesday, February 03, 2010
By Molly Henneberg
He may be the president who governed during the Civil War, freeing the slaves, but under a new curriculum proposal for North Carolina high schools, U.S. history would begin years after President Lincoln, with the presidency of Rutherford B. Hayes in 1877.
State education leaders say this may help students learn about more recent history in greater depth.
"We are certainly not trying to go away from American history," Rebecca Garland, the chief academic officer for North Carolina Department of Public Instruction, told Fox News. "What we are trying to do is figure out a way to teach it where students are connected to it, where they see the big idea, where they are able to make connections and draw relationships between parts of our history and the present day."
As the North Carolina curriculum stands now, ninth-grade students take world history, 10th-graders study civics and economics and 11th-graders take U.S. history going back to the country's founding.
Under the proposed change, the ninth-graders would take a course called global studies, focusing in part on issues such as the environment. The 10th grade still would study civics and economics, but 11th-graders would take U.S. history only from 1877 onward.
Math, science and English classes are also getting an update.
Critics say the state's decade-old high school curriculum may need an update — but not like this.
"The answer isn't to throw out fundamental portions of U.S. history," said Mike Belter, a U.S. history teacher and social studies director. "This is not preparing our kids to have a deep historical perspective that can be used to analyze modern events for themselves."
Educational policy analyst Terry Stoops agrees.
"I'm all for a global outlook, but it should not be at the expense of American history and learning about American institutions and ideas," he told Fox News.
But those considering the proposal say kids will still learn the basics.
"The students are in school for 13 years," said Garland. "They certainly are taught U.S. and North Carolina history in middle school."
Garland says they're making this curriculum revision process very public to get as much feedback as possible.

yes they want to start form the "modern global era" (when the progressives started their movement).

Someone stole my bike. I was told it was in the basement of The Alamo. :'(
-
What the idiots proposing this are overlooking is that America, despite our young age, do a terrible job of teaching early US history already. Now to just not teach it at all is a WTF idea. I've already emailed my senator about it, lets see what they have to say. I'll post it, when they get back with me.

there is a correlation with shorter people acting more as "followers" and being unsuccessful in society and delinquients. Shorter people also have lower on average income

"The Colossus of Rhodes was a statue of the Greek god Helios, erected in the city of Rhodes on the Greek island of Rhodes by Chares of Lindos between 292 and 280 BC. It is considered one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Before its destruction, the Colossus of Rhodes stood over 30 meters (107 ft) high, making it one of the tallest statues of the ancient world.[1]"
:D

WTF why would they do this?
So events like the colonial settlements, declaration of independence, emancipation proclamation etc. are not relative to our HISTORY? lol.

Knowledge of these things can only serve to divide us. Henceforth, this era shall be refered to as 'the troubled past' and shall not be spoken of except in contrast to 'our golden age.'
End of line.

Why do liberals do anything they do? It's the teachings of the left to indoctrinate our kids.
-
Jesus Christ that is scary ???

well certainly we must draw some lines on class curriculum. we can not expect freshman to be taught all known history in one year. we must break up history and prioritize that which seems to be the most influential and important(or events which we expect will be helpful to prevent disaster or tragedy in some way)

Bullshit cop-out.....there is no reason that a HS student can't be taught within 4 years the history of a country that is only a little over 200 yrs old. World history, I can understand breaking it up more, but not US history.
As I visited other countries they were always mentioning how young our country is and also how so few of us know our own history.
-
What's the next step for liberals? Teach our kids that the founding fathers were aids infested fags with chopped of wangs instaed of being real men?
Seems they make lick asses of whores?

well i guess my post did come across as if i were defending the change in curriculum. i have no idea whether or not i like the idea, i havent putten any thought into it. i agree that it would be a horrible mistake in education to omit any significant events or time periods from history lessons. i was merely pointing out that the planned change in curriculum it is not necessarily a devious plot to assassinate our youths knowledge resevoires.

Falcon do you think you would be smarter if you and Goodrum didn't go to the same home school
