Something that you are missing is that this is NOT coming from teachers.

It is coming from outside volunteers who get the classroom. They will be business professionals who will come for a few one hour sessions.

This is not a school subject !! Just is direct from MPAA writing material for JA for them to bring in the school under the guise of what they use to do. It it not education, but indocrination. JA enjoyd a right that I am not sure any other non-profit has in the schools. Not the scouts, not anyone.

I urge you to tell the schools not to allow Junior Achievement, an outside non-profit organization into your classrooms. The material will be much better ans slicker than anything they will have seen in a classroom.

This is the start of having kids turning in their parents. It will not be balanced and it will not be about choices, it will not be about thew fair use law.

It is no joke. Please spread the word and write, call ,etc. YOU control this, not the schools and not the MPAA. If you get you schools to turn away JA and demand the your local JA branches not bring in this program it will not happen.
