Are any of you Washington state Koosacks aware of this?
http://www.prisonplanet.com/..."Children in Washington State are being given 'Patriotism tests' which are completely unrelated to their studies. The paper gauges whether or not the student shows fealty to the power of the state and whether the student believes in the right to overthrow a corrupt government.
A reader from Washington State writes us to highlight a questionnaire paper handed out to her daughter and the rest of her 10th grade class.
The reader comments,
"We live in Washington state. My daughter is in 10th grade and found this to be interesting. She has a GPA of 3.75 and uses her brain. This was given in her English class, and has nothing to do with the materials they were studying. We thought you might be able to use this. They are grooming our kids. Keep up the great work. Christine."

I live in a red county within a blue state. I do have contacts in the teachers profession that may, or may not, help me verify if this true.
I did a 'google search' and did not find any reports from Washington state newspapers about this.
If you know anything about this, please provide credible information to support the story.
Is this tied to the 'No Child Left Behind Act?'
