Regardless of the reason why you are enrolling for adult education, it is necessary for you to focused. As you are well aware that nothing good in life comes easy.

    “Concerned”, the way this Muslim woman was flogged, by adult men, exposing her out of her jilbab, that is clearly the problem. Doesn’t seem too that due justice was undertaken, with all the rules of Islamic shariah courts, etc., at least from what is being reported. And to be honest, I cannot support a group of people establishing their own laws within the confines of a nation… esp. when the lack of education, esp Islamic education among these folks is a fact. Also, I find it amazing that the first thing that these people find applicable from shariah is the hadd— is that all shariah is about?

    And please don’t try to read too much into my position. it is Islamic groups who are leading the protest against this, so I have more faith in their positions than in a group of people appearing from nowhere and running their own Shariah franchise. My point of the post was clear. It was about Muslim women rallying against this, something that the MSM doesn’t show us.

    This is an interesting topic for me on a few levels - right now as an employer it’s difficult to find people with basic skills like writing a memo that doesn’t reed lik ths, and as someone who wants to have kids soon I’ll need to figure out the best way to get them edumacated. I see school districts whose spending levels over the years have risen like one of Al Gore’s charts, but whose results have plummeted. What frustrates me is the lack of transparency - as citizens, we have no idea how the spending breaks down. Few numbers are released, and I trust those about as far as I can throw our state’s capitol building.

    I do have some suspicions that are informed only by my personal anecdotes. I went to public schools both in Texas and California. Back in the day, Texas had many "Independent" school districts that were funded by local property taxes. These property taxes were staggeringly high in the middle-class community we lived in - about 3% per year just for schools. The school districts were overseen by a locally elected board of parents and managed by the best administrators the boards could find. There was pretty much no secrecy. Waste was impossible to hide. Texas being a "right to work" state, anyone who didn’t perform was out on their ass. Teachers cared about education, because if they didn’t produce results they’d be fired. Students cared because high standards were demanded and enforced. The overall attitude was that we were the best and if you didn’t do your part teaching or learning then you were letting down the team, and you do not want to go there. The results were amazing. Three of the four high schools were ranked (academically) in the top ten in the country. National Merit Scholars had to be crammed into two pages on the yearbook. 98% of students who attended my high school would graduate from college (not just attend). Academic Decathlon teams didn’t worry about getting a gold medal at the state level; they worried about getting more than 50% of the golds. If a student missed more than 5 days of class in a semester (regardless of the reason), they would have to repeat it. If you didn’t have cancer, your ass was in class. Students and teachers didn’t just show up to learn and teach, they showed up to dominate. Keep in mind that this was not a particularly affluent area; it was middle-class (with maybe 5% upper-middle class). In my mind the key difference was the culture of excellence demanded by the board, who had the power to enforce this culture in the administration, teachers, and ultimately the students.

    I absolutely hated that place as a student. As an adult, I can’t believe how absolutely lucky I was to have been there for 2/3 of my high school career. You see, I moved to sunny Southern California for my senior year. Allegedly I was in one of the best high schools in the region. It couldn’t have been a bigger waste of one year of my life. Yes, there were a few decent teachers (perhaps 15%) who cared and put in solid efforts teaching their students. Only one of them could have even held a job at my old school back in Texas. To the overwhelming majority, you were a warm ass in a seat for so many minutes per day. If you happened to learn anything (assuming actual knowledge was even being offered) then that was nice (albeit unexpected). The culture was about meeting the minimum standards necessary to get by. I quickly discovered that the only thing they really cared about was your presence during 2nd period, because their attendance percentage during that time was what controlled the amount of money they would get from the state. Aside from 2nd period, I spent about 50% of my senior year at the beach and still managed to graduate. To this day I don’t worry about having missed anything. This is the culture you get when standards are set by government bureaucrats at the local level, state, and federal levels. Nobody is actually, personally accountable for anything other than meeting some practically meaningless guidelines written in bureaucratic weasel-words. The local school district doesn’t care about educating kids (they would deny this) - they actually care about meeting state standards so they can get their money. The teachers have a union so powerful that they have the closest thing possible to tenure the day they are hired - a few that are exceptionally motivated will put in extra effort, but most do not. The state people care about getting as much money as possible to expand their fiefdoms and budgetary control. Ditto for the feds. Any learning that takes place above some absurd lowest-common-denominator is a happy (and incidental) side effect.

    Just like business, schools benefit immensely (IMHO) from local control and the only way the locals have real control is if they control the purse strings. It’s the Golden Rule - "whoever has the gold makes the rules." The larger an organization is, the more accountability is blurred. It’s extraordinarily difficult to maintain high standards as they grow larger, and the rare people with the ability to organize and lead huge groups aren’t terribly attracted to civil service paychecks. There aren’t nearly enough of them to go around in the business world which is one of the reasons executive salaries have been "bid up" to such absurd levels. Our local-yokel parents in Texas had the sense to bring in (and pay for) six-figure management skills, and got the commensurate results. Sadly, that all went by the wayside in the early 1990s. Texas courts ruled, in a fit of egalitarian insanity, that it was unfair that some school districts wound up with more money than others. Never mind that certain communities decided to make huge sacrifices to have exceptional education - this simply wasn’t fair to the communities that wouldn’t or couldn’t do so. They were given the choice to share their local tax dollars with other school districts (leaving them no better off than if they were state-funded) or subject themselves to funding (and control) from the state. During this court battle they could not collect local tax dollars or receive state funding, but they actually had sufficient cash reserves to keep the district (and the lawyers) going for two years before they ultimately submitted. I’m not sure how long state-funded schools would last if pulled from the teat, but I’d imagine the time would be measured in minutes, not years.

    Before it was neutered, this incident allowed my old school to provide me with one final lesson in life. Liberalism isn’t driven by those looking for the greater good. It’s driven by tiny people who are so obsessed with jealousy towards those who do better than them - even if those people make huge sacrifices to do so - they’ll do anything possible to destroy that success and bring others them down to their level. It’s people who are too selfish and lazy to do well making sure that nobody else can either so as to protect their meaningless and ill-gotten self-esteem.

    I have not been in one since I graduated High School, but I have plans to start to go to College in the fall! I am 33, and it has taken me this long to get my life stable - I never had any parental help, in fact they would not let me go to College right out of high school. They demanded that I pay a very high rent to them, and would not let me live at home and to go school, even though my scholarship didn't cover boarding. I was very hard pressed for money and had to go to work full time to support them. Now, I have my own life, I am married, we own a house, I have a good job, and I feel I am ready to return to school and learn so I can give something back to society!

    First you need to spell English right. They would ask… Where are you going?…….What date are you wanting to go?……..When are you coming back?……..What class..First class coach…etc?. They also need to know how you intend to pay…what credit card, check, cash etc. Upon check in, your passenger needs to have their bags checked and know how big a bag they can use as carry on. I think that would be all of the important things. They might want to know if you are using frequent flyer miles or any other perks.

    Yes there's quite a few Adult Education School. One of the most popular choice is La Salle. Not long ago, a student of theirs graduated at the age 70.

    We admire them.
