3. EDUCATION

EDUCATION RIGHTS

You can’t survive, build, and thrive unless you know how things work. A good education is critical to your future success and the success of your children.

MANDATORY MINIMUM EDUCATION

All Qualified, United States Citizens may receive an education from kindergarten through 2 years of college. We believe that this should not be an option but should be mandatory. The more educated we are the stronger we are and the more united we will be. All subjects including some controversial should be mandatory including:

POLITICAL EDUCATION

To reduce division and encourage uniting and working together we all need to know the basics of our political system forward and backward. This will help us make better decisions on who to support, promote, and vote for in elections. More than a few current politicians will not like this because they will be outed. Be a part of it. Part of the solution. Volunteer and maybe even run for office yourself!

SEX EDUCATION

Us young adults need to learn much more than just the Birds and  the Bees. We need to know about emotional issues, STD’s that are life-threatening and are with you for life. The responsibilities of pregnancy that are lifelong and will affect you financially, mentally, physically, and will affect your work and career options for many years or your life.

HISTORY

History should be taught in school so students can learn from mistakes that were made and understand how the world has worked in the past.

RELIGION

Organized religion has no place in the education system. Politicians often use the vulnerability of some religious people to take unfair advantage.

HOMEWORK

No Homework up to 6th grade. This will allow kids to be kids yet help keep them out of trouble when they get a bit older.

TEACHER SALARY

Teachers are responsible for educating our children. They work long hours and should be paid a good and livable salary.

EUROPEAN MODEL

We should research the European school systems and borrow good ideas if appropriate.

HOME SCHOOL

Some parents want to home-school their children to instill a specific religion. All major religions to be taught including Atheism, Judaism and Muslim. Sex education to be taught. All subjects taught in public school to be taught. State exams required and students required to pass.
