Local school districts will let teachers decide whether to spend class time on Tuesday showing a speech by President Barack Obama on the virtues of working hard and staying in school — a speech some conservative critics decry as indoctrination.

John Toleno, Stroudsburg's superintendent, said he had received several calls from people concerned that the speech would be mandatory, which it is not.

"I am not mandating the viewing of this speech districtwide," he wrote in an e-mail. "I have told the building principals that they can encourage their staff to use the speech as a 'resource' and in no way should they feel obligated to take time from their schedules to view it."

Pocono Mountain is adopting a similar approach.

"We are encouraging our teachers throughout the district to air the speech for our students, if possible," Wendy Frable, Pocono Mountain's director of public information, wrote in an e-mail.

Frable said she was aware of one parent who had called expressing concern, as of late Thursday. "Parents may have their children excluded from viewing this event," she said. "It's not mandatory."

Representatives of Pleasant Valley and East Stroudsburg school districts could not be reached as of press time.

The speech became a flashpoint in recent days in some quarters of the blogosphere, cable news, and talk radio.

The Cato Institute, a think tank dedicated to limited government and the free market, sent out an e-mail blast criticizing the suggested lessons that the U.S. Department of Education drew up to accompany the speech for trying to impose "collectivist" values on students and for teaching them, "how to glorify the president and the presidency, and push them to drive social change."

The text of Obama's speech, which will be released today in anticipation of Tuesday's live broadcast at noon via the White House Web site, is said to focus on the importance of setting goals, working hard, and staying in school.

The suggested classroom activities ask students to read books about presidents, including Obama, and ask questions about why it is important to listen to elected officials. Other activities include making posters of their goals personally, academically, and for their community and country.

One suggested activity for elementary-age students, which has drawn fire and since been altered, recommended that students "write letters to themselves about what they can do to help the president."

The president of the Pennsylvania Education Association defended the speech, saying that Obama's opponents were politicizing it.

"PSEA believes all students should be able to see the address and judge its merits for themselves," Jim Testerman said in a statement. "We urge school districts not to censor the event, but use it as a chance to teach children the importance of becoming participants in our democracy."

Bill Vander Brink, a Tunkhannock Township resident who described himself as leaning conservative, said his daughter, a senior at Pocono Mountain West High School, would sit outside class if Obama's speech was broadcast.

"I think it's propaganda," Vander Brink said. "In my opinion, he's a Marxist and he's trying to indoctrinate them."

He added that he thought it was "beneath the President of the United States" to deliver such a speech.

"He has better things to do than this," Vander Brink said.

In 1988, President Ronald Reagan addressed students in their classrooms through a television feed. He trumpeted American democracy and what he called this country's "revolutionary economic message of free enterprise, low taxes, and open world trade."

Three years later, President George H.W. Bush also addressed students and promoted similar themes to Obama's in a speech that was aired in classrooms by CNN, PBS, and NBC.

Some Democrats at the time decried it as a waste of "scarce education dollars."

My kids aren't going to see this - end of story.

Stay away from my kids.

 Permission slips required for Obama school speech


"Parental permission slips will be needed for Marysville Joint Unified School District students to watch President Obama's talk Tuesday because it's not part of the regular school curriculum, the superintendent says."

Students in district schools showing the 9 a.m. broadcast on the White House Web site must have the signed permission slip that was sent home or they won't be able to watch, Todd said. Parents have the right to decide such matters, which include whether their children will watch classroom movies, the superintendent said.

Let me get this straight. The speech is ok but the study guide isn't? BHO is a "snake oil salesman. I'm so tired of this. "IT STINKS ON ICE ".     

[Fatman]

The school decided not to show it. Seems even the multitude of O supporters in the ed community here are now in favor of "change" - as in their opinion of the President and his agenda.

btw I heard there is a major inconsistency with his "troubled childhood" in the speech and prior statements.  Anyone hear what it was?

You think a speech is bad, wait until your kids are scared and forcibly injected with the experimental vaccines. Will he come on TV again and say if you don't take the shot, you're not helping America? Stinking Media!
 If I had kids, I would freak. There have been bad reports with the vaccine trials. With live flu virus in it, it starts the whole mess. Baxter admitted to "accidently" shipping live bird flu out with flu shots to 14 countries recently , no way that could of happened unless it was done on purpose. www.CTV.ca.com a third of our nurses don't want it.
 Maybe we need an uproar from everybody to wake up the American spirit, they keep on injuring us AS we collect to voice grievances of a broken contract with their employers, the American people. This new order system is trying to indoctrinate the young while getting rid of the wise older adults who remember the enemy that is advancing in our Congress, and SCOTUS. I still like what these two leaders said, a mind you, both were shot:

 The government is not the solution to our problem, government is the problem. Ronald Reagan.

 The high office of the President has been used to foment a plot to destroy America's freedom and before I leave office, I must inform the citizen of this plight...JFK in a speech to Columbia University, Nov 12 th, 1963 ten days before his death. His E O 11110 had repealed the Federal Reserve act. He had American notes printed. Cuba was a coverup

Our task of creating a socialist America can only succeed when those who would resist us have been totally disarmed
Sarah Brady 1994  [Didn't her husband  get shot along with Reagan?]

We are on the verge of a global transformation. All we need is the right major crisis and the nations will accept the New Order. David Rockefeller. They tried the war on terrorism, global warming, then the bailouts, and now a designer  virus, that's got to do it, right? If and when, they can just call for troops to hit the streets, and round us clingers up.
 Now here's a quote than kinda does it for me from the director of Planetary Initiative United Nations:
No one will enter the New Order unless he or she will make a pledge to worship Lucifer. No one will enter the New Age unless he will take a Lucerferian initiation. David Spangler U.N. I have a problem with Barry cozying up to the U.N. and talking to our kids. I'll just pass on that initiation, thank you.

Thank you. I have been looking for some substantiation of my opinion that JFK was whacked for his stand against the one-world powers, the same thing that Ike sort of warned us against (economic oligarchy), and this is the tip of the iceberg. Time to stop sending resumes and start digging a little.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

I distrust these bastards as much as any one, but this seems like a tinfiol hat quote. Why would a Godless socialist say something like this.
Believing in Devils requires a belief in Gods, that will get your socialist credentials yanked.

[Woody]

Tom, same question I had until I did some digging on Godless people, which encompasses a lot of groups these days.  After digging down to their roots, most of them end up being tied to Satanic Worship in the end. Pull up [Atheist/Satanic ties] Communism is a prime example. The State is God. No room for other Gods over there, just one. Republic, Democracy, Socialism, Fascism, Communism. All but one wants to control, the money, food, water, airwaves, fuel, commerce, travel, prosperity, class dominance, education, and health care and will escalate progressive taxes for ultimate control and ownership of everything. Just more planks, a little at a time. Pretty soon you're standing on a new floor, which isn't yours no more. America can see through this, we need to question all their motives right now.
 
Our fight is not with flesh and blood, but with rulers in high places, rulers of spiritual darkness.
