How has Education Reform "Transformed" the Curriculum
    The curriculum is changing to teach to the doctrine of Theosophy.  I have challenged the Literature series used in the Bethel School District.  The Literature series instructs on Karma and Reincarnation in the 7th grade.  Students are asked to write eulogies, obituaries, epitaph, about communication with the dead, a letter to God as if they are Satan, a classified ad for a murderer, love letters, about death and the after life etc...

Read the questions and assignments for 7th through 12th grade


Read the outline of the Literature series and the History textbooks.

Read School Board Response to Math Curriculum Challenge

One significant response by Board is they believe "[Connected Mathematics Program] best address Washington State grade level expectations and most suitably prepare students for state assessments."
Why are Districts giving secret assessments??? See what I got.
Try taking a 7th grade math Practice Quiz. See if you can figure out what the data means in question 1.
