Anti-traditional school in planning committee
An action committee working for "radical education" is trying to establish an anti-traditional grade school to start this fall in Lawrence.
Head of the action committee is Miss Donna Moritz, a 1969 KU graduate in English.
Miss Cathy Payne, a spokesman for the group, said the purpose of radical education was not to "train kids to be revolutionaries from the age of four or anything," but to teach other subjects than are now required in American public schools.
Miss Payne said the group was going to abolish the American History requirements. She said that in American History courses, "the kids are told that all things Americans have done are right, all the treaties ever signed by the United States are wonderful."
Asked about the prospective school's premises, Miss Payne said that the group did not have a building yet, and that classes were going to be held in private
residences in the beginning.
About the financing of the school, she said "many parents have said they will help us."
