Yesterday A Cocker Spaniel - Tomorrow A Scientology School
That didn't take long. Yesterday I told you about the story that was published making out Will Smith to be a daring hero who rescues dogs and provides wisdom to growing boys. Well today, he has taken the wisdom thing just a bit further. According to the National Enquirer, Will Smith is funding a new school in Calabasas. As in where Nick and Jessica used to call home.
The school is called New Village Academy. Nothing wrong with that. Lots of celebrities want to leave their marks on the world, and a school is a good place. Well, when you click on the website, click on the curriculum tab and start looking at the language they use. I'm going to whisper now. Scientology. Shhhh. Here's an excerpt I found which describes what happens when kids don't do well.
This is a process they call Quals.
Our Qualifications teacher works in unison with the teachers to help them so that all children are learning, progressing toward their goals, and happy in school.
Upon completion of a subject chapter such as in math, the teacher sends the student to “Qual”, where he/she is given an test in various forms. If the student scores anything less than 100%, the Qualifications teacher will sit down with the student and go over the part of the exam that was not fully understood and make sure the student understands all of the words and concepts in the chapter. The teacher will also make sure the student did not skip any concepts which would inhibit learning. This is done to help students so that they gain 100% certainty.
If a student is having difficulty in class in a particular subject, the teacher may send the child to Qual for assistance in finding out why the student is not progressing. Qual staff will intensively work with the student to determine what is going on and work with them one-on-one until they have grasped the subject matter and are ready to move on.
Last, Qual is also used to make sure that each student is on target in his/her individual school program. Qual keeps track of each student’s entire program and makes sure that he/she is moving at a smooth and comfortable pace.
They then hook him up to an e-meter and ask him if he has ever had fantasies of killing his parents. Just go through the school's website. They also offer "Study Technology" and ethics & survival. Did you just hear that? It's Jada cackling. I swear I heard it.
