Rabbi Nachum Shifren’s new book “Kill Your Teacher” is an expose of the first order relative to the “dumbing down” of our Public School Students.

From this study, one easily sees a need for Americans to wake up.  The night is far spent; the day is at hand.  Rabbi Shifren masterfully brings out the fact that community “activists” demanding diversity really, in essence, mean reverse-racism.

What is needed, as is pointed out by the studious Rabbi, is an old-fashioned house cleaning, really getting to the problems at hand, rather than the obfuscation and posturing producing a superficial situation based on appearances.  The problem of education has festered and festered for many years, and those supposed groups and individuals in our educational process – the NEA and other supposed educational groups – continue to fatten themselves to the detriment of American Public School Kids.

Constantly, we see (as does the good Rabbi) youngsters reaching the boiling point in their frustrations when not having academic averages commensurate to graduation, causing the necessity of going to summer schools and losing hoped-for athletic scholarships due to bad grades.

This is a must read for parents and educators!!!!!!
