In response
to the 2/12/13 post, “It Seems That CSCOPE is the Root of All Evil (Part 1 of
4),” a LYS Superintendent writes:
SC,
I hope you're going to address CSCOPE being used as a pawn in the larger
effort to weaken/privatize public education. It would have been entertaining to
listen to Peggy Venable speak on local radio in Texarkana this morning were it
not for the fact that she has access to so many legislators. I constantly ask
why in the world would she be considered a viable source of information and be
allowed to speak at the Senate Hearing?
She went from CSCOPE attacks, tied it to attacks on the ESCs and how we
ought to get rid of them, and finally to Thomas Ratliff of the State Board of
Education. Speaking of the SBOE, what a circus we are in for when they start
reviewing CSCOPE lessons. Reminds me of the old commercial where the chimps
were creating a business plan; the human (ESC) will enter the room and all the
chimps (social conservatives) will sit and listen (maybe), then all hell breaks
loose as the chimps begin to revise the plan.
As that is occurring, I’ll stay focused on actually educating students
and you keep being the voice of reason. Which is funny, because I remember when
you used to be the radical.
Think. Work. Achieve.
