Elementary and Secondary Education Act
of 1965
LBJ's
Great Society program for education.
First step in nationalizing public
schools. Brought federal
dollars with strings attached to local
schools.
Secretary
of HEW was
John Gardner, Chief Architect of the
Great Society (and it appears he was
the person most responsible for
implementing the communist UNESCO
programs in America). Prior to HEW,
he headed up the Carnegie Foundation.

Regional Centers for Education - Institutional
Infrastructure
Also in
1965, ten regional
centers were established to disseminate and manage the national
agenda for local education. And apparently within the
regional centers, "Comprehensive
Centers" were established to assist schools with the implementation
of the 'No Child Left Behind' Act of 2001. The Comprehensive
centers are harmonizing the curriculum and administration with the
national computer system for monitoring, measuring and control.
Did you get that? They are redesigning the schools to fit
with the national education computer system. Is it any
wonder that children graduate being unable to read or name a country
that beings with 'U'.

Learning Point
We began as
the North Central Regional Educational
Laboratory (NCREL), a single-contract
regional organization created by the U.S.
Department of Education to provide states
with research-based information, best
practices and the technical assistance they
need to bridge the gap between education
research and education practice.
For 20
years, NCREL—now known as
Regional Educational Laboratory Midwest
(REL Midwest)—provided policy makers and
educators with the tools they needed to
create change in the classroom and influence
decisions made at the regional, state and
national levels. In 2004, NCREL became
Learning Point Associates, a change that
ultimately transformed us into a
diversified, nonprofit consulting
organization with clients of all sizes
across the country, from state education
agencies and single-school districts to
private foundations and for-profit
corporations.

WestED
[History]
The roots of WestEd go back to 1966, when
Congress funded regional laboratories across
the country to find practical ways to
improve the education of our nation's
children. Charged with "bridging the gap
between research and practice," a number of
the original 20
Regional Educational Laboratories grew
beyond their initial charge and developed
into successful organizations.
Two in
particular — the Southwest Regional
Educational Laboratory (SWRL) and the Far
West Laboratory for Educational Research and
Development (FWL) — evolved beyond their
laboratory roots, eventually merging in 1995
to form WestEd.
In our over
40 years of service, WestEd has positively
impacted the lives of millions of children
and adults through research in education and
human development; publishing and
disseminating hundreds of books, briefs, and
manuals; working on thousands of projects;
and hosting and presenting professional
development events
The regional structure of the "education" establishment
using what from the outside appears to be private sector organizations
is what provided the cover necessary for the federal takeover of the
schools while leaving in place the illusion of local control. In
1987, with the full network of regional management centers, the
socialist "transformation" of the schools was ready for implementation.
Conference on Security and Co-operation in
Europe When I've heard the
Helsinki Final Act talked about in the media, the impression given was
that the United States was a signatory to the agreement only as an
observer. That's not true. The United States signed the
agreement and has been implementing the provisions of it the same way
that was done it Europe for the unification of East and West Germany
which was the final step before the birth of the European Union and the
North American Union. Of course the purpose of the Regional Unions
is for the ultimate goal of a global totalitarian system of "governance"
by soviets (commonist system).
Helsinki Final Act: U.S. -
Soviet Union - harmonization of the education system
"When Willy Brandt was elected in West
Germany in 1969, the peaceful reunification of East and West Germany
was a priority. Toward that goal, the Conference on Security
and Co-operation in Europe (CSCE) began in 1973 and the agreed upon
framework of actions for reunification was codified in the Helsinki
Final Act that was signed in 1975." [Gerald Ford signed for the
U.S.]
"The full list of
signatories of the Helsinki Final Act is as follows: Austria,
Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, Cyprus, Czechoslovakia, Denmark, Finland,
France, the German Democratic Republic, the Federal Republic of
Germany, Greece, the Holy See, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy,
Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Malta, Monaco, the Netherlands, Norway,
Poland, Portugal, Romania, San Marino, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland,
Turkey, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, the USA and
Yugoslavia."
Among the ten principles laid out in the agreement were co-operation
and non-intervention - but there is no need for intervention when
co-operation is agreed to and accepted as an obligation.
Excerpt from the
Helsinki Final Act:
"Recognizing that such cooperation, with due regard for the
different levels of economic development, can be developed, on
the basis of equality and mutual satisfaction of the partners,
and of reciprocity permitting, as a whole, an equitable
distribution of advantages and obligations of comparable scale,
with respect for bilateral and multilateral agreements...giving
special attention to the least developed countries.
Convinced that growing world-wide economic interdependence calls
for increasing common and effective efforts towards the
solution of major world economic problems such as food, energy,
commodities, monetary and financial problems, and therefore
emphasizes the need for promoting stable and equitable
international economic relations, thus contributing to the
continuous and diversified economic development of all
countries.

In 1985, the U.S. signed an

including the Helsinki Final Act and details the plans for the next
round of "cooperation". The agreement includes importing
soviet teachers, teaching methodology and ideology.
