Conservative Public School Teacher Calls Florida Exam 'Soviet Style Propaganda'

There are many conservative teachers sounding the alarm about the hijacking of their profession and the radicalization of school curriculums by left-wing union leaders. Exhibit A: Chicago Teachers Union President Karen Lewis saying they’re not teachers but “education workers.”

Dean Kalahar is a Sarasota, Florida high school economics teacher. On his blog, he says his guiding principles include private property rights, free market entrepreneurial capitalism and the U.S. Constitution.

Kalahar recently brought attention to the new Florida high school senior exit exam, which he says will “indoctrinate children into a progressive and revisionist model critical of America.”

It is sad when parents who love America send their children to public school to be indoctrinated into left wing radical thought. Who would expect an assumptive question like "Analyze the major factors that drove American Imperialism?" to be on a school test. It is not much different than "Have you stopped beating your wife?" but with a political motive. Yet the first is actually a typical test question in the standard curriculum of public schools today. Despite this, radical left wing extremists insist they have not hijacked the curriculum and smear those who complain as not fit to teach.

If we don't wake up soon, it will be too late to save our nation.
