<p>I honestly don't blame you for wanting to know more information, considering all of the funky things we hear about happening in schools nowadays and how many districts have embraced some of the disturbing parts of progressivism and globalism.

<p>I honestly don't blame you for wanting to know more information, considering all of the funky things we hear about happening in schools nowadays and how many districts have embraced some of the disturbing parts of progressivism and globalism. MCA stands for the non-profit <a href="https://www.micreativity.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Michigan Creativity Association</a> which sponsors DI and some other programs. If you look through the link to their site, there doesn't seem to be too many buzzwords, and when you look at the participants in the DI program, you see a fair bit of private, parochial and even consolidated home schools-- ones you wouldn't expect to engage in a program that was secular or progressive. </p>
<p>I would welcome input from anybody who participates in the program to get a better understanding of what it all entails.</p>

<p>I'm happy for LAC school but not so sure about the MDI affiliation. Destination Imagination (DI) is a global educational nonprofit. Odd that DI was founded in 1999 when Agenda 21 was making inroads into American society. In a short 23 years DI has grown to include over 38,000 volunteers in 27 countries. I wonder how it got so big so fast. Any organization, especially one that deals with kids that talks about "global" education, innovation or anything connected to globalization raises the…</p>
<p>I'm happy for LAC school but not so sure about the MDI affiliation. Destination Imagination (DI) is a global educational nonprofit. Odd that DI was founded in 1999 when Agenda 21 was making inroads into American society. In a short 23 years DI has grown to include over 38,000 volunteers in 27 countries. I wonder how it got so big so fast. Any organization, especially one that deals with kids that talks about "global" education, innovation or anything connected to globalization raises the hair on the back of my neck. The same leftist buzz words appear in their literature. Words such as equity, diversity, global and inclusion. Our education system must concentrate on local and American issues first. X, do you know what the MCA stands for in the background of the picture you posted? Sorry to be to such a pessimist but if I've learned anything it's that the Left is always on the move. </p>
