Corporate Takeover of Public Schools-Wal Mart Elementary

Most people are aware of the push to include corporations in public schools. From having Taco Bells in food courts to team sponsorship, corporations want to get their hands into the molding of the next generation. The reason is simple, to establish loyalty and control the messages received by the next generation of money-makers and decision makers.

Would you be shocked to learn that this corporate public school take over is being spearheaded by Wal Mart? The same megalithic company that opens stores in areas just to close down small industry, then shuts their doors and leaves blighted property all over the country is ready to take over education.  They are seeking to create a charter middle-school in an upscale area is Little Rock Arkansas.

If their application for a charter school is approved by the Board of Education it will be the ran by private managment and open to the public. However, the location of the proposed school will help ensure a certain type of demographic attends the Wal Mart school. On the Board of Education, and partially in charge of the approval process, is Diane Zook, who is a financial supporter and part of the group pushing this Wal Mart funded charter.

Are you ready for a new world of corporately owned public schools? Can you even imagine what this might mean to the future of the already weak public school system?
