President
Trump, exhibiting class and respect, mentioned the “incredible devotion that
has earned her the adoration, total adoration, of her students and colleagues,
the school district, community, and the entire state.” https://www.facebook.com/ijrredpresents/videos/179722432727814/
The petty
little ideologue was not just wearing an insufferable smirk the whole time, she
was rude and ungrateful and refused to shake the president’s hand or clap when
appropriate. Honored
for her “adoration” in the classroom, she could not muster the slightest propriety
for the moment and the place.
Her rudeness and lack of decorum are a
disgrace to the profession. There are so many deserving teachers out there who
work in the education trenches every day without being recognized for their
work because their politics are of a different kind than the Democrat-sanctioned
socialist plantation of Marxist adoration.
Selecting a Teacher of the Year begins at
the local level and each school district has their own criteria that tend to
match the national guidelines. You will be very surprised to know that parents
and students have nothing to do with the selection process even though they say
the nominee is adored and respected by the community which they serve. The high
ranking administrators form a selection committee composed of administrators,
teachers, educational service personnel, student support personnel, and past
Teacher of the Year winners and nominees.
Some common
denominators are membership in the National Education Association (NEA),
American Federation of Teachers (AFT), with their financial support for the
Democrat Party, and other university-sponsored organizations who are mills for
future teachers.
Teaching
awards are nothing but a Democrat popularity contest of who is the most
progressive, outrageous, and anti-American progressive ideologues in good
standing with the top administrators and other decision-makers who can send
that person to the top of the heap.
“According to the criteria for
the National Teacher of the Year Program, a Teacher of the Year should inspire all students to learn. Teachers who
aspire to this award do not stick to the textbook or traditional methods of
teaching.”
The nominees
usually push the latest fad in education, currently the Common Core curriculum.
The top nominees believe in global education, global citizenship, no borders, the
anthropogenic global warming, the rights of the illegal aliens and refugees that
trump those of American citizens, alternative lifestyles, Islam over Christianity,
and deviant sexual behaviors promoted as the norm and introduced by force into
the classroom as early as kindergarten in some states.
Mandy
Manning, this year’s awardee, is an English teacher in Spokane, Washington, and
teaches refugees and immigrant children from countries like Syria,
Iraq, Afghanistan, Guatemala, Myanmar, Mexico, and Tanzania. It is no surprise that a political
person like her would be chosen as spokesperson for an entire profession. https://www.yahoo.com/news/mandy-manning-teacher-handed-trump-080024349.html
No mention
is made whether these immigrant children are legal or illegal as it does not
matter to liberals if we follow the law as long as we have more future Democrat
Party voters in our midst.
Is it any
wonder that such “educators” are turning our children into communist agitators
and snowflakes, with no allegiance to our country, our history, our sovereignty,
our flag, our pledge of allegiance, God, and to a sound education?
This teacher
of the year affronted our President the entire time. If she is the teacher of the year, the best
and brightest that our country can produce, what must the rest of the teachers
be like?
Based on the
buttons she was wearing during the ceremony, a rainbow apple, Transgender
Rights, Women’s March, and the letters she gave the President from her immigrant
students, this person obviously puts the interests of immigrant children,
refugee children, and a women’s movement that embarrasses at least half of this
country’s female population ahead of America’s students’ interests.
Whatever
happened to teaching reading, writing, American history, American
exceptionalism, science, and American civics objectively, without the teacher’s
political agenda being front and center eight hours a day?
Wow, I hope next year Trump can get out of such a waste-of-time 'award' ceremony!
ReplyDeleteSo true, Carol. What a farce!
