Finally, the Arne Duncan Chicago Schools reform myth is exposed

Arne Duncan wants Delaware to violate its own Constitution

Arne Duncan wants Delaware to provide capital funding to Delaware charter schools whichs violates Delaware’s Constitution

Delaware Constitution, Article X, Section 6 Property Tax; use limitations.

Section 6. No property tax receipts received by a public school district as a result of a property tax levied for a particular purpose shall be used for any other purpose except upon the favorable vote of a majority of the eligible voters in the district voting on the question.

Providing capital funding for charter school cannot legally come from property taxes local or even if the state imposed property tax without referendum.

Charter schools are corporations and the state would be crossing the line investing capital funds in a corporation. If the corporation (charter) fails the state would not be able to recover its loss.

Arne Duncan has brain fart

Test scores should be traced to ed schools, Duncan says

Education Secretary Arne Duncan called this morning for states to link student test data not only back to teachers, but also to the programs that trained them. New York State education officials said they are already working on it.

So Arne who do we blame for your fuck ups?

Arne Duncan Fails in Philadelphia (Part 1)

Arne Duncan visited Philadelphia today and like the failed Educational Management Organizations whom we wasted over 120 million taxpayer dollars on, he promoted a one size fits all plan to fix education.

Classified ! Duncan’s Sex Tapes

What Arne Duncan doesn’t tell you, is once the Race to the Top funding is distributed there’s no more.

The advertised goal of Race to the Top is a cover for the real agenda to advance charter schools by requiring the states to establish laws allowing charter school or expanding current laws that put caps on the number of charter schools.

Do you honestly think once the 4.5 billion dollar Race to the Top funding is exhausted in two years the goal of closing the achievment gap will be met within those two years?

States like Delaware who are under finanical constraints have no choice to chase the $$$ carrot on the stick. Arne Duncan is well aware of the carrot on the stick game he is playing and is like a child molester with a bag of candy.

Once Ducan perverted circus leaves town there will be a need to sustain the initiative putting the $$$ monkey on the backs of the local taxpayers.

What will be left in the dust is the same problem of addressing the achievement gap and the same children abandoned.

Sex scandal rocks USDOE, Duncan stands by his man!

“In a statement Wednesday, Education Secretary Arne Duncan said Jennings has devoted his career to promoting school safety.”

“He is uniquely qualified for his job, and I am honored to have him on our team,” Duncan said.
