A test on every desk and flag on every wall

… That seems to be the plan for education reform in the US these days.

Flag.gifThe Arizona legislature has passed a bill that will require a 2 X 3 foot, made-in-America US flag in every public education classroom (preschool through university) in the state.

As the bill moved through the legislature amendments were added that also require legible copies of the US Constitution and Bill of Rights.

Very patriotic on the part of Arizona legislators, don’t you think?

But the bill is an unfunded mandate. No money would be provided under the legislation and colleges are instructed to raise private funds to pay for the flags.
