"Why the International Baccalaureate Program is Un-American"

Please watch this You Tube video on the topic of the International Baccalaureate Program which now has many programs in the Missoula school system expanding to all grades. The International Baccalaureate program is an United Nations off shoot and does not teach our children in a traditional American curriculum. Watch Out!! This IB curriculum is dangerous for our country's children!
Again, please watch this You Tube video.

MCPS MAKES YET ANOTHER TRAGIC AND MALEVOLENT MISTAKE IN CLOSING COLD SPRINGS SCHOOL AND ALLOWING A DAY CARE ON THE PREMISES

Dear Missoulians and other citizens around these great United States, 

Why does Missoula school watchdog address the entire country in this post? It is due to NOBODY listening or paying attention, at least as far as Missoula school watchdog is aware of,  to what is going on in Missoula, Montana, including most if not ALL Missoulians and even the Missoula County Public Schools Board of Trustees - thus the reason for addressing the country. Maybe someone out there will read how the Missoula County Public Schools system is so malevolent and so mismanaging it's assets and how it is providing a risky and low level education to Missoula's students.

As a "Missoula Girl" and as the writer of this blog, I can say that the closing of Cold Springs School in the southern part of our city was another sad and heartbreaking action taken by MCPS. 

The closure was unnecessary and wreckless. A school closure in Missoula  is always taken up with little thought to the short and long term consequences for the students, families, neighborhooods, and the city itself, including the entire county. Again, why the entire country? Because what happens in one part of the country effects the entire country. There is a boomerang effect when bad things happen in an area.

Some information that needs to be included, however brief, is that the closure of Cold Springs can be mostly blamed on one or two dishonest MCPS Board members. Did you know that former MCPS high school Trustee, Drake Lemm was the FIRST Trustee to mention the closure of Cold Springs way back in 2006 at a Board Meeting discussing MCPS properties? In other subsequent MCPS meetings including MCPS Ad Hoc Property Meetings, always with Drake Lemm present, the closure of Cold Springs School was mentioned and a "substitute" school was proposed - that is the building of a school in the Miller Creek area, more specifically the Maloney Ranch area. 

In meeting after meeting the closure of Cold Springs was mentioned. Then, in the fraudulent MCPS facilities bond plans, the closure of Cold Springs was again proposed and a plan to build a new school was brought forward in an even more aggressive manner.

Missoula School Watchdog would like to mention a fact that all Missoulians need to know - and, as mentioned above, the entire country. That is that the MCPS high school Trustee, Drake Lemm has property, an entire subsivision in the Miller Creek area. It is named the DJ subdivision. (msw does not know if that is the actual name of the subdivision, however, that is the name of the street on which he, as a contractor, builds his homes).

On a radio talk show today the issue of Cold Springs being used for a day care was mentioned. This topic was extremely painful for me, again as a "Missoula Girl", as I attended Cold Springs in elementary school back in the '60's. It was a nice school back then and contrary to MCPS officials was not in horribly bad condition when closed. The montra heard from these officials was always Cold Springs was just basically a bunch of units from Colstrip brought in many years ago. Yes, there may have been some of those units, however, there was a lot of the older portions of the building that were not units from Colstrip which one would not have known if you just listened to MCPS officials with an agenda not conducive to the public's good, that of keeping the neighborhood schools.
